I think its a great page and I'm not sucking balls.

They're using art elements from what looks like a painting to me - and as far as the font goes - it works well with the artwork.

I'd hardly start to speculate on what the music sounds like based on the artwork - so regardless it should not matter.

So do you think that we will get a streaming version of Vicarious on that site or not? Could this be the place where the radio stations will download it from?

InertUniformity
04-13-2006, 02:21 PM
I think we can say confidently that this site will have Vicarious streaming. Perhaps by midnight on sunday considering they are doing a countdown.

The radio stations will likely dl the song somewhere else.

In any event, it would be really stupid if this site DID NOT stream Vicarious after an introduction like that.

That bit struck me as well, they way the artist and title popped up, followed by the album mini. I'm probably gonna get flamed for suggesting this, but it struck me that maybe the "abyss" orientation of the image, cropped in the way it is on that page is the "true" cover (if the mini is just a mini or fake or whatever). It'd explains Blair saying that the face is "part" of the artwork, and satisfy the people complaining about the lack of symmetry and personally I think it conveys the idea of 10,000 Days better by giving you a view down that long abyss of faces.

Flame away, chaps!

Didnt the German review in the post somewhere on here mention Kubrik somehow?

Estevan
04-13-2006, 08:03 PM
I think It'd be cool if the band were to decide to reward it's fans with a sneak listen to the single ... like TA and TN (Kabir obviously has had some sort of official contact) would get to hear it before it hits the masses on Monday. That'd be mighty sweet, and a good reward considering nothing has been leaked (mostly due to the very controlled efforts to prevent that.)

RED_THE_HAT
04-13-2006, 08:09 PM
I would be kinda cool, but I mean, we have all been pretty full on looking for leaks and all, so I wouldnt blame them if they dont. Not to say I havent looked! lmao If they were to put it on the site early, people can either download it, or record it, then the whole thing about sending the single to radio statons via the internet would be really, not worth the hassle. I dont think that we are gonna get a single streaming from the site before it hits the radio, as much as it would be awesome to do so. I am more inclined to think that they will do it when it has gotten a little airplay, when it has leaked a bit.

Didnt the German review in the post somewhere on here mention Kubrik somehow? Yes I believe in a round-about way it tried to, but then again I understand zero German.

For some reason as I stare down that picture, the further it gets down the "hallway" the more the faces remind me of the Southern Oracle, from the Neverending Story.
