*raises hand*

Whats a facial tick?

So, what are trying to say, trunc?

For the record, AHOTBG (I think I'm going to call you Titty Twister, if you don't mind, random association and all, you understand), I'm not personally attacking you. I'm just a bit wound up today, and seem to be almost incapable of typing in lowercase letters.

Suck a bag stirling!

I understand. But I don't even know why we're arguing. I just simply disagree.

I don't know why we're arguing either. It's rather pointless. I'm omniscient.

Ha! Yeah that was funny.

ouch. you are a bit wound up today.

I was only joking. I like you, yer neat.

*Edit: Joking about the bag-sucking, that is. Otherwise some of you people are making my brain hemorrhage.

warm fuzzies are awesome

"You pretty okay, too"
-Mr. Miyagi

Aww, I almost feel better now.

this is not properly right cause I dont live in NYC and so I cant access to their live previews. internet should be the solution!

Don't make me hurt you.

it's really pretty slimey and selfish of you guys to just assume that the band hadn't been planning on providing you with an opportunity to hear tracks, performances or the whole damn album on their terms on their site. essentially a lot of you are using the completely inapplicable argument that you need to hear a record before you buy it. this is one of those bands that's usually willing to play ball on some level. those of you who fail to recognize that and continue to perpetuate the propagation of the leaked album thru file sharing before the band fucking ***GIVES*** you something are complete and utter assholes.

Well said chabib.

so is

the end of the ugly

the final message?

I do not understand how this discussion can even be continuing.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?

What's pissing ME off is the assertion that, despite what SY themselves say, you guys think that you are not only justified in downloading, but are ENTITLED to it! That you are OWED something! That is PROVES YOUR WORTH as a fan!

What an asinine, self-serving, egocentric perspective.

Not that I'm speaking for anyone in the band, but if I were SY and putting this album out, and you whiny little pricks started your "but I want it NOW, and I want to PREVIEW it, how do I know if I want to buy it if I can't hear it beforehand, wipe my regressive ass, blah blah blah," I would respond with

Fuck off then, DON'T buy it. You either like it or you don't!

The bottom line is, no matter how much you dumbasses want to justify your behavior in the name of 'art,' it IS a business as well. Their music is SY's "product," to do with as they wish. Whether you as a consumer buy it is your decision, and in this supply/demand dynamic, they are not beholden to you in any way. You'll have access to their album when they see fit, and that's all there is to it.

Use your puerile little brains, and show some fucking RESPECT.

Yeah, I agree w/ truncated. If you don't like the album when you buy it, then just return the fucking thing. NO ONE will get pissed at you for that.

In fact, if I were in SY's place, I'd forbid you mutineers to buy the album, because I wouldn't want to have such an appallingly stupid, obstinate fanbase.

Fuck Yeah truncated. That falls under the category of Kurt saying in the liner notes of "Incesicide", "If you are a racist, a women hater, or homophobic, don't buy our records. We don't want you as our fans." -Kurt Cobain
(not sure if that's the complete qoute)
