Thanks 


Happy early birthday to you too!

Is there a pre-order someplace?

I agree with the comments here. This sounds awesome and it's the most excited I've been about an upcoming album for a very long time. I just know I'm going to devour this when it comes out!

Is Michael Sweet involved in this project in some way or is he just announcing it?

I didn’t get into Tourniquet very much because they were kind of all over the place tempo-wise, and just too progressive for my tastes. I also always thought their drums were too far out front in the mix. I think Ted Kirkpatrick must have been the main reason for both of those reasons that I didn’t like Tourniquet. This sounds amazing! Much more melodic and groove oriented!

No, Michael just announced the project. He wasn't involved in it musically at all.

BUMP

Nobody knows?

Purchased on iTunes.
One song in and I can say this is what I've been wanting to hear since 1994.

Just snagged on iTunes. So excited!

Heaven’s Metal needs to feature an interview with Flood. This album needs to be promoted ASAP! 

Quality Christian metal on par with the good old days!

Classic Boones' sale, $3 off but $8 to ship. Why $22 for the CD? I wish I could buy it straight from the band. Maybe if I wait it will show up at another distributor? Maybe I can get it straight from label?

Listening on Soundcloud for now and loving it!

Whoa! This smokes!!! I hope they make a digital download available for purchase. I want to support the band. There’s no way I’m paying Boone’s $8 for shipping a single CD. That’s borderline unethical. I wish it was on Amazon.

This is why, most of the time, I will order Retroactive and Girder releases from Roxx.  Both Boone's Overstock and Girder are notorious for having a "sale" and then jacking up the shipping so that you end up paying MORE than if they hadn't discounted at all.

At least with Roxx, if they do a sale, it is a sale.  Shipping doesn't go up.  Roxx is my preferred Christian metal store.

You can buy a digital from the band but stupidly you have to buy it a song at a time that I see.

And yeah I gave up on Boone's awhile ago for crap like that.

I wish I had only $8 shipping cost...

Look at this:



Yeah, seems like I'm not getting this one as a physical CD.

Good grief!

Guy, Gary, and Erik all sound amazing!

Airola, if you want me to buy a copy here in the US and mail it to you (at a much cheaper cost!), PM me.
