Hahahah that was my response too. Bandmate walks in from a drive to get bee... erm... cables, and tells me he heard it rocking in the car.
Radio is banned.
Need CD and or vinyl first.
No exceptions.
(I even left a recovery party after our gig the other night because someone just put on a rip of the new album... lol... i made it this far, i can make it a few more days).

Heard the interview today - it was with Ed and it was recorded a few days ago.
Highlights included Ed saying they've been working towards an album like WATN since 2000. Also talking about when he lived in Perth, Western Australia for 6 months when he was 18 - working in an icecream shop and living in a flat at Scarborough Beach, fooking nice beach. HAHA! fuck i lived in a suburb right near there at the same time, there was a Timezone I went to at the base of Observation City where this dude had a seizure and they had to cut the power. he was ok though.
...I digress.
Still no word on touring here.
I'll link to the interview when it becomes available.
EDIT: also they played Saturate right after the interview and the cd fucked up and the announcer said something about it being a bad burn. They must have a rip like they had with 10,000 days leak!

Consumer.... not its not a leak. JJJ gets official promos across the board, and especially for feature albums. I wont comment on what happens to the promos once they are in the various offices and studios though :) A lot of acts use PR and promo agencies to send their promos through as well, its a quicker way to ensure it gets there safely, gets noticed and more and more often, securely!
As for the burn comment, sure it could be a backup of the promos sent in, but more and more labels are sending promos as cd-r's with minimal labelling, as the resale of "For Promotion Only - Not For Resale" happens despite the labelling. For boutique labels like Creative Vibes, this hurts sales ina critical fashion (eg, unlike the digital thing, if someone wants to buy the actual album and sees a promo they will prob buy it, but the label doesnt make any money from a promo... well they do but thats another story, but the artist loses out).
Hmmm i tend to ramble!
