I'd imagine the album will be up streaming somewhere tomorrow. That seems to be the trend these days.

Yeah, man. Of course. Usually one week before the release of a record, publications like rolling stone, iTunes, billboard, Yahoo Music or other websites will stream albums in full.
Basically what it means is that you can listen to the album in full online, but you can't save the music to your computer.
Hope this helps!

I've been keeping the Wikipedia article up to date regarding the new album (I made and wrote the ones for Flight, Hurricane, OOTW and the main page 2013-present). I added writers for Stardust today (Bryce and Pelle) and Hurt This Way a little while back (Jason, Jude and Christian Burghardt). Hope more info is a-comin'!

I have a feeling that's exactly what is going to happen. It doesn't help if you have amazing song writing and vocals, but if the production is overdone it can really ruin everything. Here's hoping they have learned from mistakes of their past records. Remember how beautiful and honest "I want you to know" sounded live, with just the piano and vocals? And then how mechanical and forced the album version felt in comparison? I'm sure some people will disagree with me on that but I just thought the production really killed that song. I really really hope this won't happen on this album.

I really really hope this won't happen on this album. Couldn't agree more, Klein. I Want You to Know was almost hauntingly beautiful live in concert. The album version is so awkward and terrible. The layering was overkill, and it just sort of... ends. That has to be the most disappointing song they have ever recorded in my opinion. Expectations were set so high from the live shows! I really hope Angeline is pretty unchanged from what we've heard. I'd kill for just a short live-in-studio-acoustic version of it for the album.

I would disregard that review strictly because they pan Flight for not being 'honest'. I'm pretty even-keeled but I'm calling total BS on this one.

Got an email from Target last night. Target Exclusive editions of OOTW are being delayed by one day. Not sure if this is just me since I had it overnighted but just a heads up!

In case Google empties that cache: It's nice to see that I'm not the only one who is not a big fan of their production work. Somehow I have a feeling (without hearing this record) that we might keep waiting for that different sound as long as they finally try different producer without Jude lurking around. Obviously this poppy production seems to still be in trend because Young Guns' upcoming record seems to be suffering from it and even Breaking Benjamin's which would be years ago impossible to imagine. :/ I still hope they all are at least listenable tho.

Makes me nervous too. Underneath the grammatical errors and miscategorizing Flight, I'm afraid that many of us are going to agree wholeheartedly with this guy. Overproduction has been an issue, and their albums have become too polished. I think most of us are on the same page about that.
