The new album is epic. It's not as good as AMOLAD, but still a pretty damn good album. Oh, and there's no Wicker Man/Wildest Dreams-type songs, either; thereby making it more awesome.

I thought it was great. I've said on multiple occasions that the drum track for Starblind ruined the song, and they could have done so much more with it.

I have to say though it gets better every time I listen to it. Its one of those ones you hear the first song and your like yep this is gonna be a good one.

Actually, Starblind is currently one of my favorite songs on the album. But I definitely agree on the multiple listens aspect.

Anyone here got the Mission Edition?

Nope. I do like Starblind though. The Alchemist and The Talisman and my 2 favorites though. Satellite 15 has an awesome intro too.

Personally, I think The Final Frontier blows A Matter of Life and Death out of the water. A Matter of Life and Death just didn't do much for me. I think the new album sounds a bit like a cross between Seventh Son of a Seventh Son and Brave New World. Isle of Avalon and The Talisman are my favorites (El Dorado is good too but I've already heard it many times. side note: Seeing them play it live was awesome). And I liked The Wicker Man... although it's among my least favorite Brave New World songs.

And while you're munching on their cheesy wheat-y goodness, a person breaks into your home and begins to rob everything you own, because you have some ****' goldfish at hand, they smile back at you with that "Every little thing is going to be alright" kind of look and then you think they're some freaky-ass jamaican goldfish or something but then "Wait, goldfish aren't jamaican. They are canadian, which is why they come in bags." So you end up wanting to hang out with your rastafarian friend but wait, YOU DON'T HAVE ANY FRIENDS. So you end up trying to download the Bob Marley discography but wait, THERE ARE NO SEEDS. Then, when the clock strikes twelve, you realize that your goldfish are quickly running out, and you wonder to yourself "Do goldfish feel pain?" So to test this theory you begin to break them in half, demanding that they give you direct coordinates to the rebel base. But they say nothing, so you continue to munch on their cheesy wheat-y goodness. But what's this? THE BAG IS EMPTY!

Alone in your dark empty room, you crawl your hollow shell of a body to the darkest corner, and your mourn, you mourn the lost of your goldfish, and you ponder... should I buy another bag?

That is a ****' goldfish.
