Gotta say that that track list isn't inspiring me, not that it's stopped me pre-ordering, but an existing song + a cover + I wasn't really into the vibe of stars from the toontrack thing - seemed to be more of a logical follow on from the epicloud/sky blue sound than I was hoping (admittedly probably unrealistically) for.

Will have to wait and see though, and hopefully it's a bigger change than expecting

I count two previous songs - Truth and Victim.
I'll pre-order the two disc when I get paid next.

Well granted, the second remake is only on the 2nd disc; which beyond that track, is mostly all original content.

I swear I saw a tracklist on a preorder site that had track lengths. Anybody else see it?! I can't find it now!

'Dem song lengths.

Interesting that their cover of 'Transdermal Celebration' is over 8 minutes long, while the original song is relatively short. Just over 3 minutes. Very excited to hear their take on it, I love that song.

Same, it's a great song so I can understand the desire to cover it. The original is so good though, I'm struggling to imagine what the guys have done with it that made it album worthy.

I don't ordinarily care that much for covers but I'm intrigued by this one.

mymomlikesdogs, are you talking about the song of Ween?
After I read your post, I just discovered it online, i'm also curious about the DTP cover!
Is there an article where Devin mention that it's a cover of Ween?

Yeeeeeees, thanks :) I do love to see some longer songs – definitely part of the Terria feel, I'm sure.

I actually asked him myself on Twitter and he confirmed it to be so! Haha. This was after on his Periscope streams from when they were the studio; each of the guys had their own tracking charts and Dev showed his on camera with a track labeled as "Ween", and there was footage I think of Dave's chart with a track titled "Transdermal". So I kind of connected the dots and went to confirm it.

Thanks for the anecdote!

First taste of the new and improved Truth:

Sounds like Failure is going to be the 1st single and he's doing a Q&A soon.

"Batman v Robin or whatever" - ha!!

But seriously, very good news. That treasure hunt sounds like a weird idea, but it may work.
