worthog Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 (edited) I found this on youtube: (MOD EDIT: Link deleted - possible virus source. And if it IS a link to the actual album, that's not allowed here.) As tempting as it is, I don't have the cajones to do it. I am guessing it is fake. But hey, if anyone else wants to try and tell me what happens, go right ahead. It could be real but just Caravan and BU2B...who knows? BTW, I am downloading the album on Itunes and buying a hard copy. I don't pirate music Its all on youtube anyway, no reason to pirate anymore, I am just an interested Rush fan that wants to hear the new album as much as everyone else.

Alchemical Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Fake. Avoid at all costs. If you feel like being stupid and downloading it, make sure your antivirus software is on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savagegrace26 Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 I started the download but it says it was going to take fifty minutes so I cancelled it. You guys are a little too paranoid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People, please don't post links to downloadable copies of the songs -- whether you know they're legit, or think they could be fake. No matter which it is, you're either illegally distributing copyrighted songs, or possibly distributing a virus. Neither is acceptable here.

Boyd Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 The folder has all the songs in it but requires a password to open them with a media player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Rat Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 (edited) Well, the link in the youtube description box leads to MediaFire, a standard file upload site, there's no harm in going that far. And the file in question is a .zip, which can't possibly do stuff to your computer by simply downloading it, just don't run anything in it. The 87 MB file size is plausible... FWIW. Edit - refer to 1001001's post Edit - Also, utterly not legitimate. From the readme included in the zip: "I have set a simple password for the album to prevent copyrighting. To get the password you must complete a 30 second survey to bypass it. You can just put all fake info for the survey, and just skip to the end until you get the download for the .txt file password." what an amateur.

D3strukt Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 If you look at the TAG dates you'll see things were created in 2008. Fake as f**k. Also, Caravan is only 1thousand KB's? Since when was Caravan a smaller file size than BU2B? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godeater2112 Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 There is no album leak yet. Soon though I also seeing it hitting the Interwebz before the end of this weekend. There is a lossless Headlong Flight download however, with both the album version and radio edit. Personally I feel like I haven't heard new Rush since Snakes and Arrows released. I pre-ordered this new album weeks ago, but will gladly grab a leaked version the first opportunity I get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerxster Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Only 26 days to release. I think that may qualify us to be in the final countdown. I'm glad to wait for the cd release and it's good sound quality. I hope it doesn't leak early. If it does, I hope leak threadstarters properly identify their threads with spoiler leak warnings. Good luck Roadrunner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarKo Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Doesn't look like a virus. Just a scam to get you to sign up to an SMS phone competition. Never seen password protected mp3 files like that before anyway.... Nice try kid.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
