They’re streaming the album live before it’s release next weekish.

I dig.

Thoughts?

Heh, I’m on dial-up. Streaming is a mythical fantasy for me. I am looking forward to the new album, though. What are your thoughts on it?

Hey **Postariti** , I think it’s their best since The Colour and the Shape, and I’m a fan of all their stuff. There’s some big crunchers on there, as well as really full and layered production and writing. It’s almost like you can feel the whole band is really in sync now and Grohl’s rejuvenated.
