    It will also be their first album to be named after a song title off the album

    Here just a reminder and yes I own the ATS Deluxe Edition.
    I'm fully aware that the ATS Pre-order didn't include the lpu-membership a T-shirt, pins and the unique photo.
    But seriously why can't we then pick and choose if we want the LPU-membership (ok it's just 10 euros but still) or the T-shirt (let's say 35 euro) not.
    Why isn't it possible to include a smaller version of the Art book for the CD-Bundle, like with MTM cd+dvd edition?

    I also find it odd, that not much criticism (not none) come from the fans toward this pricing and bundle options. 200 Euros are not peanuts. If it was just like last time 100 euros I would instantly pre order. But for double the price I expect more.
    Or at least not so publicly (only on forums) but not on front pages on Fan-sites. (rose-colored glasses anyone?)

    I think there definitely has been criticism from the fans about these bundles. For the most part, people just say that they won't take any of the bundles offered and move on ... which, funnily enough, is how I wish people would act when it comes to new music that they don't like

    But, yeah, I think there needs to be more tiers, different combinations of products

    I mean, we're here to report the news, not give our opinion on the pricing structure. Wouldn't really call it "rose-colored glasses" for not writing an editorial on how shitty the price is. It's definitely a lot of money. More choices would be nice and I don't really know the reasoning for pricing it the way they have.

    Thanks for you two for responding. And yeah personal opinions shouldn't be on news reports. I get that.

    So wait, random question: if I pre-order (trying to get the CD bundle) even though I already have a fresh new LPU account, what will happen? Do I just put in a code or something? Also, is it worth it? Because I really want that shirt and pin, but the LPU membership (that I already have) and $55 price is making me just want to buy Heavy first, buy a shirt at Hot Topic, and then just wait for OML to hit my nearest Best Buy/Walmart/Target on release day.

    You would trigger an unstoppable feedback loop which would eventually create a tear in space-time. This would have catastrophic effects on our universe.

    Just came here to say that i am really disappointed
    I always protected the band and i love all of their albums especially ATS and HP
    They make a pop album? That is alright... i like Heavy
    But this song is so damn weak and boring....man i am really really sad.
