What does that mean? Reprise can release stuff without the bands involvement or what? I don't know much about licence.

Could be wrong but I think it means while the bands owns its catalog, Warner holds the exclusive right to distribution and stuff like that

Generally this but it depends on what the terms of the licensing deal are.  It will likely be limited to specific uses like marketing and distribution etc

Why do you have to be so obnoxious to people? Can't you just let people do what they like to do without criticizing them? I'm sure people aren't posting covers of songs to be shit on by people like you

Hey I post my covers with the expectation of being crapped upon!

But yeah, children can be insufferable sometimes 😂

Is the cover definitely set?..

it’s had some low level commentary already here (Ireland) and not a lot of it good.

Can see it becoming real sticky at launch in Ireland and the Uk

I think Father to Son will be beautiful, epic and a huge success 

Very interested to see the perspectives in this song. Have to assume it’s Billie writing about being a dad - unless there are characters in the album, or it’s Billie writing from the perspective of his Dad or something

21CB is a concept album. It also has elements that make it a rock opera like characters but there isn't really a "story", at least not one you can follow which I think was a good idea. I think AI kind of suffers a bit by trying to tell a linear coherent story whereas 21CB just kind of has the appearance of having an actual story but really there's just things happening and characters that are basically just representation of Billie (Christian & Gloria) and/or his wife (sometimes Gloria i.e. LNOE, LOTAG) or just working people suffering. AI has 3 songs in a row that are entirely dedicated to St. Jimmy and Whatsername's relationship but if you're not interested in the "story" of the album, then this is kind of wasted space. Don't get me wrong, AI is still a 10/10 album but I think I'm in the minority of people that prefer how 21CB handles its concept, themes, characters and "story", which is to focus on them less. I think the 21CB songs work on their own whereas on AI, the non-singles kind of need to be heard in the context of the album to be properly understood

Idk how you can consider Act 2 mid. With the exception of LOTAG which is still good, that entire Act is peak

I always interpreted the album as having a story but its not in the traditional chronological sort of way.

The music and the album has a whole tells a story at the grand scheme of things and christian and gloria are used as pawns to create the narrative of that. The album was written very well.

We haven't talked about that album description enough.  Do the albums come with free weed?  I thought the song about me made it on the album but Billie said the Suzie Chapstick one fit better for the influencer segment of the album, 😄 

Yoga retreats. Alt right. Dating apps. Masks. Mental health.  Climate change.  Social media divison, Oligarchs, fentanyl and fragility.     Interesting.    American Dream touches on mental health and oligarchs, I guess.

The covers community is pretty obnoxious sometimes. Especially when they “cover” a song snippet into a whole song. I think if you post your work for the public, you should be prepared for feedback good and bad.

Signed CD order from Zia got canceled, as expected... was meant to be in-store obly... 

Dang. What other sites had an autographed CD??

Crazy a company can just pull something like this. Don’t people follow what they advertise anymore? Not my fault they weren’t prepared to honor their word. Should at least try to make it up to us.

Didn't someone else mention other stores offering this? Or is it all supposed to be in store?

A Google search determined all are unavailable or in store. I’m going to write a bad review. Maybe if we all do, this crap company will keep to their financial agreement they made with us.

disappointing, but not altogether surprising. The whole point of the indie exclusive is to get real fans to come out to their local record shop. I really don’t think this will be too hard to get when it comes out. 
 

a bunch of these preordered signed CDs were already up on eBay for $200-300, so just as well that all online orders got cancelled

1981 and Look Ma have some pretty wacked out lyrics.  I love it, but it's very trilogy.   Can you guys deal?  

Also, unrelated band - but was Captain Underpants never incorrectly idendified as Reto Peter?  Like people assumed it was him, Chris Dugan and the four piece Green Day, right?

Well, if they end up being in store only, it looks like there is a store in the Philly area that has it on their site. 
I may just call to confirm if it will be available upon release date and if so, just go there.

It sounds terrble and does a disservice to the song because it's not even out yet

Is it feedback if someone posts the feedback on an entirely different site where the creator can't even see it. Also saying "Just awful" to a cover isn't constructive criticism

Why don't you? Did the person who made that cover ask for your opinion?

Also you know you can just edit your comment or post a new one, you don't need to quote yourself
