dudley dawson Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 ^ Beautiful artwork, still don’t get why they didn’t do a variant to go with it 🤔. Guessing they’ll milk it down the road with one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is funny that they had a graphic artist do all this stuff for this album a few hundred people would buy and for the last Green Day album Billie scribbled on an old album cover and went there you go. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Dude Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 I'm working on an unboxing video now. Glad I didn't get scammed into preordering, I purchased it last night on amazon and got it this morning. Pre-orders are lame. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And because I forgot to wear a mask in this video, there will be a part two! Haha. Got some cool Green Day items in the background, along with some Chili Peppers, Offspring, and more. I usually don't put my videos on here, but this is definitely on topic, so it works. 6 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 About to go flip through the book and figure out exactly what the heck they are saying. Perhaps this album is not all sunshine and puppy dogs like we thought. Maybe it's mayhem. Maybe it's Maybelline. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 I can't believe that some of the lyrics that I thought were pretty clear are different. I just knew The Snoo said "dissecting a man" but apparently he's dissecting the MATH. WTH. On Fentanyl it is "torture, lies, death and pressure" when I hear "...dark fantasy" From a stupid person that's how they get you! that's what the translation is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 If the lyrics is 2099 instead of "2000" in Time Capsule, I'm not hearing it. Unless it's a backing vocal that's muffled beyond comprehension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine one of the guys standing against the wall, whispering "99" as low as possible. Because....I don't THINK I hear it. Also, I'm finding lots of errors in the booklet. There was a few "it's" for Carolina's Ultimate Netflix Tweet that aren't actually sung. It's like they hired the doofus that does Green Day booklets or something. He needs to be fired or given a new position. Heck, let him sing or something. Get him a mask and a keytar. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the mistakes on the booklets happen because the lyrics that are printed on it are the original lyrics they send up to register... And then those lyrics got minor reajustments between that and the time they record them... And that is where the 'mistakes' happen 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jengd Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Great unboxing @That Dude, made me laugh out loud but I just loved your enthusiasm, and there was me thinking I was the only one who sniffed a new CD! So agree with you re actual, physical copies and pre-ordering aaarrrgggh, my copy still in transit, in fact seems to be going backwards now! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to think it's completely normal though The future of streaming needs a scratch n sniff feature. And digital black...I mean digital booklets. Itunes always promised a "digital booklet" but it was just the cover. Lots of lyrics related to breathing, or the lack of. choking, hanging, nooses, axphexia. A sign of the times for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermione Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Goddamn it the CD won't work in my CD player. It has no scratches on it whatsoever so first I thought the CD player was broken. Nope, other CDs work fine. But I tried playing it on my computer with a disc drive and it worked perfectly, so the CD isn't broken either. It's really weird, a song will play for like 2 seconds, then 2 seconds from near the end of the previous song will cut in, then another 2 seconds of the new song, then another 2 seconds of the previous song, eventually just switching between a different 2 second section of the new song one after the other, and so on. Same on every track. It doesn't sound like a damaged CD, it just plays 2 second pieces of the songs in the wrong order. Never heard anything like it before. I guess it's incompatible with the CD player somehow, maybe because it's a very new CD? I can just burn it on a blank disc instead but it's weird and a bit annoying. 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 This one is weird like The Network is weird. Also a consise unboxing that shows you everything contained within. Can't understand me? That's the point, I'm trying to be more like Mongo. More Like Mongo has a nice ring to it.....must....fight...urge to make fake tracklists.. .
