Angels/Losing/Sleep, now coupled with this cover, is making me slightly more excited about the album. (I'm not judging it by it's cover, just getting less pessimistic)

However, Where Are You DEFINATELY hurts that excited feeling.

when i first saw it, it kinda struck me as odd, but now i like it; it's unique and unexpeced--like most things OLP.

I was wondering the same thing. It'll be awesome either way. If there is something on the back of his head, it'll be fucking cool. If it's just weird balding spots, even better. :lol:

I zoomed in a lot and it's starting to look like a drawing, maybe it's just because it isn't meant to be zoomed in on. There's like a wave type thing there, or a triangle.

I can't really judge because I just saw it now, but, well, I don't really love it or hate it. It takes me time to warm up to things (If I'd heard the title Happiness... Is Not a Fish That You Can Catch back in 99, I'd be like, "WTE"). Still, it's more than acceptable.
I just wanna get out,

No new news, but it's on Amazon now, if anyone wants to preorder it (I think you can).

Amazon doesn't have the cover art. Or a tracklist.
I just wanna get out,

Hmm, that's expensive. :( I hope stores have much better prices than that.

I don't really like or dislike the cover art. But that's really how I've been with most of OLP's album art. :lol: *hides from everyone*

DualDiscs for the most part go for about $14.99 here if you buy them at reasonable places like Circuit City.

And I think the album art is fucking sweet. Hopefully the liner notes are tits too. Only Spiritual Machines had really great liner notes (although the lyrics in Raine's handwriting on Happiness is a nice touch). Tits liner notes can make a good CD better. Although the Naveed liner notes keep me occupied, as it takes me practically the length of the CD to put it back together.

Tits? What? Tits in OLP's liner notes? Stop confusing me!

Saul/Sol's boobs are quite prominent on the Naveed cover.
