Keep your fingers crossed. And think it over before trying to use what your avatar shows!

Funny picture of Bruce from German interview. This is Bruce reaction - when he hear that someone don't like Sol or Book of Souls album itself.

Yep, I think I can see the cancerous lump there... Doctor doctor!

 

[Brigantium]

Too soon.

 

[Mosh]

SOL is better than 70% of NP so I'm definitely not worried.

19 days to go!

For those who don't know, Thomas is a guitar player who worked with Blaze on some solo stuff.

 

[Caveman Ninja]

I know about Bild. This is what I thought too. I choose not to include all that in here. But point taken. And yes I am from Athens Greece.

Do you drink in Underground?

 

[Night Prowler]

SOL is better than 70% of NP so I'm definitely not worried.

 

[Travis The Dragon]

I was wondering if you'd react to that.

Do you mean the rock bar in Exarcheia? Not anymore mate. I am too far away and too old for all that.

There've been a few reviews now that have said some interesting things about "Tear of a Clown." I'm not sure if the title was putting me off or what, but I hadn't been thinking about that one as much as the others. It seems that everyone is surprised it's not a ballad.

 

[The Nomad]

Why would I read reviews before listening to it myself? I don't even want to look at how long the songs are, that way you set yourself up for pre-judgement.

 

[Brigantium]

That's exactly the reason I've chosen not to look hard at reviews that come up, I want to save it for the day the album is released and just listen to the music. I just scan to see what the reviews are and where they've come from. But I suppose everyone is different and some fans are very eager to find out as much as they possibly can in the build-up to the album release.

 

[The Nomad]

Yeah I'm not blaming anyone for anything to be honest. I just am not gonna look up anything. I had a quick glance over the song list when it was first announced and yesterday I tried to look for it again but I quickly closed the page before I went and tried to judge songs by their length. I prefer to go with the flow this time and try not to form a thought in my mind over certain songs like "ok this song is 7 minutes and im at the 5 minute mark already. It's about to end soon" etc etc...

Do you mean the rock bat in Exarcheia? Not anymore mate. I am too far away and too old for all that.

That's the place! I like it a lot there. The DJs are always very accommodating of my requests and it's the only place I found in Greece where I can get a cider! Although I drink plenty of ouzo when I'm over anyway. I love Athens

It'll be fun to see a cowbell on Nicko's drum kit.

 

[Mosh]

Personally I think it would be pretty badass if Bruce whipped out a cowbell and played that part himself.

 

[Lego]

It'll be fun to see a cowbell on Nicko's drum kit.

It's always there, to the left of his hi hat cant really see it unless you're behind the kit

 

[Maturin]

Nicko could hide an entire mariachi band behind his kit and you'd never know they were there.
