I will be happy if the album isn't leaked again. That way I will be sonically blown away once I tear away at the plastic on the album, and I won't have to deal with the guilt I know I'd go through of listening to it early.

Anyways, my eyes are practically bleeding. Goodnight psychos. :)

That is nice cover art! :love: Just seeing it makes me really excited to hear the rest of the album. Superficial, I know.
And if I don't make it known that
I've loved you all along
Just like sunny days that
We ignore because
We're all dumb and jaded
And I hope to God I figure out
What's wrong

wouldn't it be awesome if when you open the cover of healthy in paranoid times, on the inside of the cover you see the other side of the picture...and see the guys face....and it would be awesome if it was saul....that would be amazing
Is there something good, something more?
Is there anything worth dying for?

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*


You have to be insane not to like the SM artwork, and the same artwork used in the "In Repair" video. Are you? It's so creepy and weird and fits the music perfectly.

And yeah, generally it will be cheaper than what Amazon has listed. I'm sure it'll be like $9.99 at Best Buy the first week or so.

And there is no question of will it leak. It's just a matter of time. And I will also download it, because I don't want to buy it and then realized "Oh, this is no better than 'Gravity.' Oh well, it was worth a shot." Sorry, I don't have that much faith in the band to go into purchasing this album blindly. Not after the last one..

In that respect, I should mention that I hope no one comes to the hub looking for the album. From the time it hits the shelves it will not be available on the hub for a few weeks. If you get it from some other file program fine, but not from the hub.

i really like the cover art. Much better than the gravity cover. Though i do miss sol, this cover still makes me all tingly inside.

It looks similar in style to the cover of the single for IAH

Another interview with Raine and Jeremy mentions the problems making the CD. Jeremy blatantly mentions walking out and it was suggested other members did too.

I also remember Jeremy mentioning he wanted to throw Bob Rock into the Pacific. Could this signal the end of the Bob era?

I feel like even if I hate the album, if I do download it early, I owe it to the band to atleast purchase the album.

I don't really like it. I suppose I could change my mind, but personally I don't find it visually appealing.

So I take it that means if I rip the CD, I should keep it out of my shared folder?

Anyway, I think the cover art is definitely original, and sort of cool, but I dislike the large amounts of empty space. Oh well. Still, not too shabby.

So far, I don't like the cover. Like someone else mentioned, it would be cool if when you opened the linar notes you saw the front of him. It would be even better if it was Saul, but it looks like a younger guy in the pic, so I don't think it's him. Either way, I'm not buying the CD for the cover. I do like the fact that the title is sideways though, that's cool.

Brutus is an honorable man
It's just coincidence that oil men will wage war in an oil rich land
And this one goes out to my man taking cover in the trenches with a gun in his hand
Then gets home and no one flinches when he can't feed his fam...

But Brutus is an honorable man...
