Yeah, I find it incredible that some people have never encountered a .rar file. I mean, WinRar is one of the first things I install when I put a clean copy of Windows.
Because some people don't download albums.  Of course, I broke my own rule over the weekend, getting the Japanese first-press versions of the 80s albums based on the thread that says they sound much better than the remasters.  I learned about .rar files for the first time, but it wasn't hard to figure out how to convert them to .wav files.  Google is pretty goddamn useful.  I justified this sin in my own mind on the grounds that I would have bought the better mastered versions if they were still available, and I've already purchased both the vinyl and remastered (crackly) versions.  And yes, they do sound better.  Notwithstanding my newfound knowledge of the forbidden fruit, I'll just wait until next Tuesday when I can buy a copy of TFF at the store before I hear the new album.  I'll live. 

In other news, I've changed my avatar temporarily while looking for a new one.  The current version is pretty self-explanatory. 
 
@LC - I find installing a clean copy of Windows and other software afterwards a very relaxing experience :D

@Cornfed - Well, it's not like .rar is used just for illegal "warez"... The last time I checked (a long time ago, in my defense), it was superior in both speed and compression ratio to WinZip. Of course, there is also 7-Zip that may be better than WinRAR.

That, my friend, is why the good lord invented alcohol.

eeeeeeh, depends how badly it ended... guessing from the sad face you guys did not part as the best of friends...
 
LOL, exes always do. I'm very good friends with a an ex of mine and even then... Glad she's exactly that, an ex and a friend. My most recent ex... never talking to that succubus ever again... good lord.
 
Yeah, I know that feeling!  Iv tried to be nice, but every time I try, she thinks she can push me around, so I stop. Its always a trick with kids.
 
Looking fwd to some Old Timers reviews. It's like a chess game, everyone is listening now and prepare his words carefully.  :D
LC, Guinea Pig and yours offered some first samples. There are also some interesting posts from some new members,
but what the hell, the opinion of someone who you know for years, and he's tasted by the time has a different weight.

Looking fwd for some SMX's and Lib's reviews. Badly.   :D
Then Zare's and without particular order Albie, Wasted, Forostar (of course fucking of course), CFH, LC (a more detailed one) and the rest of the usual suspects, except Onhell  :P

LC has a special place in my heart for this album, from here to eternity!
 
I really need the lyrics before I can begin writing my traditionally long opinions on these new songs.

That's ok, it's better to wait some days anyway, let feelings calm down and also wait Albie, Forostar and the rest.
While I was driving back home I was thinking of you and your possible impressions, did you like it or not, almost with the same impatience for re-listening the album!!

Hey! I used to write good reviews... then I stopped caring :p

Did you listen to it ??
 
I listened to it twice last night. I am still trying to form opinions on many of the songs. They haven't clicked yet.

No, I'm old school, I'll buy the CD when it drops. Along with Apocalyptica's and Blind Guardian's to make the trip to the store worth while.
