Thanks Verandi! Just for that, they've postponed the announcement 2-3 more months.
Actually, they just e-mailed the album to me. :o

Uh... it looks normal to me. Are you sure you didn't get an incomplete or corrupted download somehow?

Chrome sucks!? I love it. I got FF4 Beta the other day and have been trying to make the change, but Chrome just has such user-friendly features (especially tab-related stuff). I've never had any problems with it. Can anyone say "close all tabs to the right" or "reopen closed tab"?

Yeah I don't trust google either after hearing about them stealing people's info and spying while you're searching. By the way Google is government owned, so the conspiracy theorists say.

You might consider using some other browser if you chose Firefox for that reason. Mozilla ( = owner/creator of FF) is primarily financed by Google, there are numbers saying 85% of the budget of Mozilla comes from Google (at least in 2006 it was). They get that money e.g. for using Google in the searchbox and getting the searches from the user. I think if Google says 'left', Mozilla will turn left in a second. 85% of your budget will make you do that.
Apart from that, Chrome works best for me. Like especially the simplicity and speed.

BTW this thread made a weird turn... :D

Yeah, off topic, sorry. It's hard staying on topic about a supposed new album that is just a black box on a mundane official site, that has no art, no name, no track listing, no release date, ect. :lol:

At this point in history, would it be safe to assume that New Clear Dawn is the name of the next album, or is that now in bad taste? Any thoughts?
