The Owl Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Yeah, what give? This album drops in just over a month and not even a teaser yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdFireYYZ Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I'm surprised how little attention this project is getting. Their were 3 songs and short samples of every track released for Grace For Drowning before its release and we don't even a single sample. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tjtull Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 ...then again, this style of music (whatever it turns out to be) might not be condusive to samples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marblesmike Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I also think the lack of samples or preview songs has a lot to do with both SW and MA's affinity with the way music releases were back in the 70s--people rarely heard anything (besides maybe a single) from new albums until they were released. I know--what a foreign concept in the internet age!!! I just want to know when I can preorder the vinyl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am expecting something insane, and I'm almost positive it will be album of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sullysue Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I've been trying to pre-order for 30 minutes! I tried doing it by registering, but it takes me back to the register page. Then, I tried to buy as a guest. Same thing! Grrrrr.... It won't take me to the page to pay for the damn thing and finalize the order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Union 5-3992 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I'm not a huge fan of Opeth, but I am a big fan of Steven's. I can't wait to hear how this turns out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolarizeMe Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I'll pre-order my copy ASAP. Definitely can't pass on this, it sounds like it can potentially be one of the best albums of this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really digging the cover art. Any idea who's responsible for the work? Definitely can't be Lasse Hoile. Maybe it was done by Travis Smith? Looks more like an Opeth cover than any Steven Wilson related cover art for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was Travis Smith as well but I'm only familiar with his covers for Opeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marblesmike Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 According to the art coordinator Carl Glover, it was done by Hans Arnold who passed away in 2010. I read that over at the PT forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
