I can't find one anywhere. It's a little discouraging that this isn't get much, if any, curiosity spins in the US.

The album doesn't have an official U.S. release date yet.

The song has been out there though. If anyone in the U.S. wanted it, there'd be a release date by now. And that's a shame.

There is always a possibility that they would release this in the next few weeks in the US considering the album doesnt actually drop until early January. An early release of this single in the US would have lost all momentum by the time the album comes out. Second single confirmed as "Where We Belong" in the UK. I just hope they get around to putting this out there in the north american market. I'm still pissed that Biffy Clyro's amazing album is being totally jobbed in N.A.

Are they still a big deal in the UK? I know they were.
I'd be tempted to buy that album though, even if I knew that all the songs sucked. It takes a true champion to make an album cover like that.

Personally, I don't know what side of the fence to lean toward, because on the one hand, that cover leaves itself wide open for ridicule. On the other hand, if the band is totally aware of this and are already having a laugh about it, then more power to them.

I like it. It makes me think of Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers.

That artwork has to be the second shittiest of the year. Only behind this one:

I don't think it's shitty. I think it's over the top, which is awesome.

I view the Lostprophets cover as corny. The Adam Lambert one is just weird. The label pulled a clanger by making that the cover instead of this...

I thought this forum would be the one where I'd be free from seeing awful Adam Lambert art. The Lostprophets cover looks like it's going for a film poster feel; that does not offend my sense of aesthetics.

Both being cheezy images starring larger-than-life protagonist(s) presiding over a metropolitan area in a nighttime setting. Seeing the Say Anything cover made me think of the would-be Lostprophets cover. Did I actually line 'em up and look for further in-depth similarities like I was playing MegaTouch Photo Hunt at the bar? Of course not. I don't care that much. They just reminded me of each other; that's all.

Furthermore, are you at a bar? That would explain so much.

Do you know what the word ripoff means. Do you. Are all bands forbidden from using images involving wings just because Avenged Sevenfold uses them in their logo (to avoid being deemed a "ripoff"). Is A7X even the first to do so themselves. I think not?

Yeah, A7X should totally sue, and Lostprophets shouldn't!

Why are we bringing lawsuits into this? And what would Lostprophets be suing for anyway?

I know what that's like, being that it was your negligible comparison and use of the word "ripoff" that got me into this mess to begin with, thinking it was all just a joke.

I think not? Hell, Avenged aren't even the first ones to use a skull with bat wings for their logo: 1988: 2007: Plus 7 out of their 10 album covers in between. Oh yeah, and their new one due out in January, too. The only reason I really even know of Overkill is because Beavis and Butt-head made fun of their "Hello From the Gutter" video. Remembering the "fly into a video..." quote in particular, I tried searching for the clip in vain. To be fair, Blitz's "We've been expecting you!" shriek made me crack up on its own. I didn't even remember Beavis mocking it, but all the better that he did. Tiger Army comes immediately to mind as another band that uses wings with their logo. Tiger face with bat wings.
