I thought these guys broke up.

Shine On was quite disappointing -- a classic example of the "sophomore slump." I hope this third one is better.

Me too. Their debut was the best faux-Classic Rock album I heard since the Black Crowes' Southern Musical and Harmony Companion, IMO.

I got a real early advance promo of this today (still no street date). I think it's my first "watermarked" promo!

This CD has been watermarked with a unique identification code that allows us to trace any unauthorized copies or usage to the intended recipient (you). You are responsible for any unauthorized use or distribution of the music on this CD.

They'll be coming after me! I wasn't the 'intended recipient'!

Maybe I was? Why don't you rip me a copy and let's find out? :twisted:

Seriously...just let me know if it compares to Get Born at all, or if I'll be saving my scratch.

Jimbo, is that a real CD or a CD-R?

Jimbo · 19 Jul 2006

It's a CD-r, but all very official-looking. Includes artwork (no booklet, just an inlay card) and printing on the disc.

Jimbo:

I got a digital advance of this a while ago but I didn't know watermarks were out already.

That being said, I did listen to it and found it much better than thier last CD. A lot more
Pop oriented, Much better songs too.
