...And You Know Now that we Suck

Oh wow. Half of greenideas is stuck in board meetings all day like a bitch, but this news was too big and sort of horrible not to break. The new ...And You Will Know Us by The Trail of Dead album, Worlds Apart, despite the fact that it isn't released until January 25th, has leaked to Slsk, and is now making the rounds. And it's a huge disappointment, honestly. It's a fucking emo-pop record, straight-up. Remember how good Source Tags and Codes was, and how promising that song "Crowning of a Heart" from the last EP sounded? Well you should dash all of your hopes for this record on a sharp rock, because it's dreadful. We'd post an mp3 on Molars if we didn't think that would result in immediate litigation via the black-magic voodoo employed by Interscope's lawyers. Some people probably couldn't care less about this album, but our expectations were high. Conrad and co. have been hitting the Colombian marching powder a little too hard, it seems, because this record sounds phoned-in.

Yancey, who coincidentally has the same alma mater as the greenideas folks, gives the album a once-over, in a more articulate and considered manner.

i never liked st&c. admittedly, i got it pretty late in the game, so i had plenty of time to get sick of the hype deluge. still, i thought it was duh-duh-dull. the bright side though, is that i wasn't looking forward to the new record and so i don't care that it sucks. it's so fucking awesome to be me.
