presto123 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 (edited) Would you rather have a whole single released(besides Caravan BU2B)or have maybe 30 second samples of 3 or 4 songs? I don't know if I want a whole song being that we have two already. Maybe just small samples will build my expectation more?

Tony R Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 They should just create a sample piece with excerpts from every track and post it on their website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J2112YYZ Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Single. I can't stand the stupid 30 second song samples because you usually can't tell much from them. Give me a full song since that's the only way to form a true opinion on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 The 30 second samples aren't my favorite, so I'd prefer a new track. I've not heard any rumors ( other than the album release date ) about any singles or samples about to be released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babycat Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I'd rather have a whole track - a 30 second burst sometimes means you can't tell much of anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReflectedLight Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 whether it's a whole single or 30 second samples, they will pick the best sounding stuff to raise expectations and boost sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielmclark Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Neither. I don't like getting the album piecemeal... give us the whole thing, I say. We already have two songs, I don't want to get a 10-song album and have 30% of it already released. That's goofy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigershark2112 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 And might I ask, where did you hear THIS rumor? To answer the question, I've never been impressed by 30 second samples of anything in my life. Gimme a new song, or put out the re-recordings of Caravan/BU2B (if they did indeed record them again). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarkus406 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I actually hope they don't rerecord the two singles. I just have a bad feeling that if they did, they would somehow make it not as good. Add some geddy choirs or more Alex overdubs or something. Or something ridiculous like removing the jam from caravan.

Ruins the anticipation of the first listen after the 30 minutes it takes to get the plastic wrap off the cd. i agree. they can put out a new single/ rerecorded single or samples if they want, but i am not gonna listen to them. i have tried this experiment before and usually if i don't listen to a new album before i buy it i end up liking it more that if i sampled before. usually. and if it comes with a 5.1 mix, that will be the way i will take my first listen.

presto123 Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 It seems like everybody does that 30 second sample thing now. I think it's mainly for i tunes and Amazon and sites like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
