I have it. It is good from what I have heard, though that is only like 3 songs, from my cpu. Will take some time to crank this while riding around town in the next few days and report back, sir!

How'd you get this already, or is it the samples from the web site?

I pre-ordered this a month ago and am counting the days until it shows up (along with the "All Right To Die" t-shirt).

leaky leaky...we're cheaters

I'm not feeling it too much...it just seems to be missing something, like it's a continuation of the B-Sides EP (although I don't know if it has anything on par with B.I.G.O.T.)...I've given it a few spins and it just isn't doing it for me so far

Suffer for the Trust is pretty good, (included it on a mix I sent off to Chuck D this evening)...Edge of the Universe Cafe is good, along with a few others, but I this one isn't gonna be impossible to stop listening to like Sparkle

I listened to it all the way through last night.....Its really mellow, never really rocks out, but I think that some of the songs are really good. I suspect this may be a concept album dealing with addiction and family tragedy (there's some song about burying mom or whathaveyou) and the whole junkie/heroin thing is prevalent.

Musically, it is much more sparse. Lyrically....I mean, seriously, this is Ike Reilly, it is what it is, its never going to be complicated either lyrically or musically----its Ike Reilly, his simplicity is his charm.

Definintely a departure but not garbage. A grower most likely as you fruits like to say.

I really like the cover art though.
