If this is really the whole tracklist I might just kill a pigeon. Those songs better have two or three in one (almost like what Snow Patrol did on one of their albums if I remember) or I'm going to be mighty disappointed. Not enough to kill a living thing though. Not Snow Patrol. Coldplay. Viva La Vida. That's how you make a ten track album. Also pigeons aren't living things, they're bags of eventual shit.

Yes, but Durst also said that Gold Cobra was going to be split into two albums. That obviously didn't happen.

I guess they are going with the polar opposite of Transistor, which had, what, 22 songs? I'd prefer they pare it down to the strongest material...

Possibly another entry on the Mainstream Rock chart?

I don't know how this song has escaped me all summer. Sounds great now.

It is really a shame that this album only has eight songs on it and is just under half an hour because I'm extremely impressed with it being that it's the most similar to old school 311 since their self-titled release. It is loaded with plenty of energetic and mellow songs for future singles. "Rock On," "Time Bomb," "Wild Nights," and "Count Me In" are very much like material from their first two albums. "Trouble" is similar to "Amber, "Speak Easy" and "Love Song" and "Weightless has a bit more rock in it, but still is slower than the rest of the songs. "And A Ways To Go" really reminds me something off of "Transistor" being very spacey sounding. All in all, I like it quite a bit and they continue to show me why they're my favorite band.

Our station got this advanced CD (along with upcoming Blue October) early last week. I assumed when I saw the 8 tracks it was only a portion of the album the label sent out. I haven't had the chance to hear either disc, but I will grab the 311 at least based on this song.

50-55k for the first week. Around what I was expecting.
