Progress is lovely! For a band that has hardly dabbled in electronic affairs it is really well done!

I love Crow and Cackle.

The new songs are marvelous

I'm going to agree with Zepp in that Act II is my favorite. Although Act III probably has my two favorite songs (definately my favorite), it doesn't hold my attention start to finish like Act II does.

But you should just get them all and don't worry about which one to get first.

Act I is an EP.

38 minutes = EP?

Apparently. It's not unheard of. See, e.g. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Change_of_Seasons (57:31)

Yeah, it's referred to as an EP, but it really feels like an album enough so that doesn't bother me.

Super Dude · « **Reply #812 on:** June 12, 2011, 09:40:12 AM »

Just bought the Color EP full collection on iTunes. Whatevs, rather have it digital than find I can't have it at all.

ariich · « **Reply #813 on:** June 12, 2011, 10:01:10 AM »

I'd prefer to buy it from Amazon or Play, but it seems like I have to buy it from iTunes if I want to get the full "digital booklet".

For anyone who does buy from iTunes, is it still really stupid in the way it limits how many devices the files can be played on and all that? I haven't used it for years because I hated it back when I first tried it, but I don't know if it's still like that anymore.

ClairvoyantCat · « **Reply #814 on:** June 12, 2011, 10:03:52 AM »

Apparently they've gotten rid of the stupid DRM-protection thing that they used to have. I don't buy from Itunes either, but that's what I was told.

As I've heard Apple introduced this thing called the Cloud or iCloud or something, and that allows you to access your files from any of your devices with no limit.

they got of it afaik. You had to pay a fee to change your old songs into the new ones though, haha. oh apple.

Well with this new Cloud thing (which I just installed like five minutes ago

), I'd like to point out that I was just able to recover almost 100 songs I thought I'd lost after a number of computer changeovers in previous years. They kept my entire purchase history and the associated files in their "cloud" archives, so I was able to download all of them for free, even in spite of the fact that there are entire albums on this list that were taken off the actual iTunes store.

DRM on iTunes files is gone. This was back in like 2009. If you bought songs before then its $.30 to remove the DRM per song.

Edit: Super Dude, that's pretty cool!

That's great, thanks for the confirmation guys, that was my main beef with iTunes back in the day. Guess I'll go with that this time so I can get the full digital booklet thingy.

skydivingninja · « **Reply #822 on:** June 12, 2011, 11:41:25 AM »

Preordered the whole thing on iTunes. I was tempted to preorder each individual EP for the artwork, but I wanted the booklet more. I can probably find the artwork online and put it on each EP anyways.

ariich · « **Reply #823 on:** June 12, 2011, 12:00:33 PM »

Is there any benefit to pre-ordering? As in, I'll have to wait until the day to be able to download it anyway, so will I get anything special by pre-ordering?

Super Dude · « **Reply #824 on:** June 12, 2011, 12:02:44 PM »

I was personally concerned about the full collection being limited edition, so I wasn't sure if that was for just for the vinyl or the download as well.

You'll get one before they run out of copies.

FYI - Casey just said in chat that there's only gonna be 1,000 copies of the vinyl boxed set, so if you want one, I'd recommend getting it now.

So the compilation album is streaming on AOL.com along with a bunch of other new releases tomorrow, and all of these songs are fantastic. Casey's vocals rock, the instrumentation is great- it's all really, really good.

I'm more of a casual fan (I have all three Acts) but these EPs might get me on full board. Awesome stuff.
