    I love the ending. "This one's optimistic." That's a beautiful article, right there.

    I'm getting really, really excited now.

    Where do you get that this is a mixed review? The whole article is flowing with so much positive feedback that I'm surprised there weren't unicorns throwing up rainbows and pooping out butterflies.

    Indeed, and the fact that he compared it to Radiohead's Kid A (We all know how revered and acclaimed that album is) means he was heavily impressed.

    LPForever, these aren't our impressions. They're from MTV. :p

    Seriously though, it's becoming really tough to figure out how to view this album or really what to think about it as a whole. I want to let the hype consume me, but in the same respect, I'm concerned that all my excitement and positivity over this record could ruin it for me. It's not that I don't think the album will sound great (I truly believe it will), but I'm afraid I might expect too much out of it come September 14th.

    Then again...when everyone who's heard it has basically praised it to the high heavens, its hard not to believe the record isn't going to be the masterpiece I think it will be.

    All I can say is...please MTV, be dead on with this review. *Nervous*

    LPA is ready for it! We got 27 million hits last month, and we're hoping we get even crazier then that in September!

    Bring on the rush of new members/traffic! We're ready for it! :D

    We don't believe so. We attribute The Catalyst premiere crash to something that wasn't set right in the server. We've had similarly busy days since then and the site barely budged.

    We think we're ready for September 14th :).

    Crashes suck, but now...I'd take it as a compliment at how awesome the site is

    I only skimmed the review but from what I read seemed very well written. Every news post is just giving me excitement for this release! Can't wait to hear it.

    I'm no more excited than I've been all this time. But this type of a review does help to keep my optimism up.

    wow, this was a really nice read. MTV knows how to pump the hype just a little bit more....almost seems like everybody will explode if theres going to be more hype ;) the can is full, we cant afford another drop of hype in it :)

    *SPOILER* Here is the text of the Mario Salvo speech:

    [youtube]u5o_0ZYA5HM[/youtube]

    "There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious—makes you so sick at heart—that you can't take part. You can't even passively take part. And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop. And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all."

    *feels chills*. What a powerful speech.

    And also this proves we need to fix the invisible tags lol.

    just an idea derek...but if you really want a spoiler tag try something that'll actually hide the text and with a simple click it'll unveil the text. Just an idea...it's not that this doesn't work....but might be more convenient.

    It's fixed, sorta. It's invisible in the original post but it's visible in quotes because of the different background color. I don't know a way around that unfortunately.
