[Recovery Room]

Surprised to see there wasn't a thread for this yet.

Release date: May 4th; track listing and artwork can be seen here.

Listen to the first track, "My Time," here.

Jason seems to love it and I'm a huge fan (and the new song is ace), so I'm quite excited.

[Mitch]

New song is super sweet.

[kemichels]

Yeah, I've heard from multiple sources now that it's great. Very excited to listen and to see them again soon. The new song is a jam.

Giving it an early AOTY candidate call.

Seems like you didn't like Planet of Ice as much (I actually enjoyed it)...how would you say this is different/better? At all comparable to anything else in their catalogue?

Is it more in the vein of Highly Refined Pirates? Menos El Oso? Or completely different?

I excluded Planet of Ice because from what I gathered (from your comments and the band's) it seems to be entirely different from that.

It's got a "grove" feel to it to me ... and the production is top notch. I wasn't big on Planet of Ice (but I did like it - just liked Menos more).

My penis is dancing already.

The "grove" description I've been hearing about has me the most excited.

Awesome... Minus the Bear can do no wrong.

Sure have, incredibly sexy.

Much like Into the Mirror, the music is amazing and the lyrics are cringe-inducing. I've always thought their more sexual based songs in the past were done in an interesting manner (lets play guitar..., patiently waiting, white mystery, etc), but these two are painfully generic

[Jason Tate]

Don't find either to have lyrics that are cringe inducing or generic. Not really sure how lyrics can be generic actually.
