just to clarify the sound more for people
it's the rawest thing they've done since Retro Active. It's just Viv and Phil playing live through marshals, and Rick is playing a real kit.
Here's a cool site i just found, clips of all the songs, bits i'm sure alot of you haven't heard yet.
Listen to that verse in Only the Good Die Young, THAT is a GREAT tune, as are all of em on here.

sorry for the rants, but man this album just totally floored me. I STRONGLY advise everyone to buy this, or at least find out how to listen to it in full if not wanting to buy.
