    Oh hey so... I've actually seen those shoes. And own a pair. They came out in February and are called Space Vs. Nature.

    I ordered my pair here.

    That's because you're awesome Minus. Those shoes should be called Space Vs Nature Vs Minus, because you are just as epic as those things.

    I saw them while scrolling the flickr a few minutes ago and went, "hey... I have those!"

    I had to check to make absolutely sure before I posted.

    On that note, I will say that the shoes are VERY comfortable. Make sure you order a size up as they are kinda snug. If you're in the .5's like me (9.5), the next size up is your best bet.

    I'm personally a fan of Jewel Cases myself. Digipacks get damaged, bent and just altogether look ugly after a year of hard use. If you take good care of a Jewel Case it still looks good. Only fear with them is that they'll crack, or the revolving thing in middle (for 2CD cases) will come loose. But it's rare.

    Solution: Don't abuse the digipak!

    I put my digipak CDs out on display on my shelf. The actual CD will either be in one of my CD storage devices in my car or stay in the digipak at all times. I may or may not have another copy of the CD for listening uses only.

    Eh I still find digi's cheap. :lol:

    When you said to order the next size up...does that mean if I'm a 9.5 like you, I should order a 10? Or a 10.5?

    You can't order a 10.5. They only have whole sizes. I ordered a 10 and those are quite comfy.

    I'm wondering what's so mind-blowing about this album cover, according to Rick Rubin.
    It must have another meaning or something.. I guess we'll find out eventually :)

    I think Josh's quote on the album art sums up the reason behind the cover perfectly "simple cover, but madness inside". It's a calming cover on the front, but once you open it up: BAM! A Thousand Suns on yo ass.

    I'm loving this stuff. Really digging the direction the band took by working with this artist. Can't wait to open the album and see how it all meshes together. The melting pot of the music and the artwork.

    Yeah this is hands down one of the most unique artistic directions the band has taken since Hybrid Theory. I'm very excited for this album. I literally cannot wait for next Monday :lol:.
