After hearing NO WARNING i like it more.........its fast and pounding..........Raine doesn't sound great but that is the least of my worries...........his voice always sounds good on the albums.
I really like Not Afraid and Wipe that Smile Off YOur Face..........walking in Circles I like but am hoping to hear it really come through on the album. All in all I'm pretty happy about the way things are looking for OLP right now. THe songs are better than Gravity, and the lyrics seemed more focused on issues that raine feels passionate about. I know with Bob things are different now, and that the "simple" approach still seems to be the way they are going..........but I can see a lot more positives out of this at this stage.
How does everyone else feel about it? Hope they annouce a release date soon too.

I agree with everything you said. I just really wish that they put on Talk Is Cheap, it was excellent! So, if that's on the cd, it should be great. I think I am finally getting over their artistic stage. It's sad i know, but i am starting to see them as more of just an alternative rock band instead of an intelligent rock band. But the band said thats what they wanted with gravity.
THERE'S TOO MANY OF US THAT DON'T WANT TO FIGHT IT

i think the funniest part about the concert is in the middle of superman's dead when raine says "toronto can you guys stand up can you stand? can you sing? you guys wanna sing?"
don't ask me why, but he just sounds hilarious when he says that
although anything he says i laugh at, lol
btw... thats the craziest i've ever seen him perform sd

I still say it'd have been hilarious if Jer had beat him in the head with his stick at the end. "GET OFF! I NEED THAT CYMBOL, YOU FREAKING WEIRDO!!
"
... but that's just me.
