Chalk it up if you got it for the movie, too. There's no problem to
burn the audio and the ISO/Mac data sessions (since I made the master
exactly that way ;-)), so whoever made this CDR just forgot about the
data part.
Get an original by joining one of the official FCs, there's nothing
better than the real thing ;-)
(And I don't want to hear any comments like "but I want it NOW and
not in a year"!)

||To answer your question, yes! It is a hidden bonus track on limited Italian releases. Only a few were made. I was fortunatee enough to get "Falling Into Infinity" with the bonus track, and it does kick major ass. Well.... until next time, ciao! Ricardo Testa ||
I was about to say "You should dump that on mp3 to an i-drive or something to let us unfortunate US jammers who never get bonus tracks (blah) in on some of the action. After all, most of us own every DT release that we can get our grubby little paws on, so it isn't like we are ripping the band off."
..Then I caught the signature. Oh well.

Somebody asked for a review of this, so here goes:
This was the first King's X cd I bought, and never having heard them before, I didn't quite know what to expect. This cd's got a lot of variety in it. It contains a lot of grungy riffs, some really, really cool solos, and even some clean bluegrass-type stuff. There's three things that bother me about this cd: 1. The lyrics aren't that great, and the singing, while good, isn't all that compelling. 2. The chorus of the song "Smudge." It sounds like commercial powerpop and 'smudges' an otherwise great song. 3. The last two tracks, Move Me and Move Me (Reprise) aren't all that great. The whole cd is pretty heavy and instrumentally is very cool, but the lyrics just don't really do it for me... I'm planning to look at some of their old stuff and see how similar (Or not) it is to this, because I can't really see how this could be considered prog.

Here's my review of the new album: ever notice when bands that some bands seem to stay "kids" in music for a really long time and not matter how in depth their music is, there's some immature factor to it. I consider Please Come Home... Mr. Bulbous as their "okay, we'll be mature now" album.
That aside, i think it's just a fantastic disc, although it's a bit short. there's not any songs that i skip. Some of them are just really fun rockers, some are just real cool to grove to, some are creepy, and some combine all that. i have Gretchen goes to Nebraska, Faith hope love, out of the silent planet, dogman, and tapehead, and i sincerely think this one's their best. tonyC "love is larger than letters"-jude (by the way, listen to this guy, he's pure brilliance, even if his music is simple)

>"Take me Over?" Is this a hidden track on FII or something? :)
To answer your question, yes! It is a hidden bonus track on limited Italian releases. Only a few were made. I was fortunatee enough to get "Falling
Into Infinity" with the bonus track, and it does kick major ass.
I know FOR A FACT that this doesn't exist. The only special thing done on an import with the 3" single released in Japan with Speak To Me on it. That all. I thinks the guy just confused Pull Me Under with Take the Time, but you guys already knew that.

The joke's on you big mouth.... Take a closer look at 'Argus Tuft' and you will see that it is a cleverly disquised (for your low level of intelligence) piss take of 'get stuffed'.
It was intented to make fun of the original piss take post that I was replying too, which obviously had my email address on it, dumbo.
So after you wipe the egg smeared all over your face, go down to your local K-Mart and see if they have half a brain on special, do yourself a favour, pick one up, and see if they have a sense of humour too, you might be able to get a 2 for 1 deal.

*covets his Awake import with the 3" Eve single* I've still yet to know whether the rumor of there being a 3" CD with a cover of Rush's Tears exists. *shrugs*

Does anyone have info on the band, Nickleback. I saw them I few weeks ago(they rocked) and during the sound check they played Metropolis-part 1. I am sure everyone in the pit thought I was on crack, because of my reaction, "Oh my god!! it's DT!!!". I was looking around to see if anyone else was over joyed by the sound check music, but I was alone.

I think JP reveals his equipment and string secrets with the general public at the end of his Rock Discipline video. I lent mine, so someone check it out.
By the way, can a senior Ytsejammer tell me about the history of MP posts here? Did he ever enter NDTC discussions, or did he ever you know - really write? Tibor (feeling stupid to be No. 88 who tried to be smart about Buck)

Being a fan since back in the day and having all their CDs, I thought I'd weigh in with some observations on "Bulbous".
For starters, it's one of their heavier CDs. Most of that is due to the drop to A rather than their usual dropped D tuning. The bass sound is super low and fairly noticeable in the mix. Songwise, the CD has its moments like any of their discs. Jerry's oddball poetry on "Fish Bowl Man" takes some getting use to. I think "Marsh Mellow Field" is the overall gem on the CD. This song could have been on "Out Of The Silent Planet". I think they are taking more risks on this CD than on recent releases like "Tape Head" or "Ear Candy". The last CD that took chances would probably have been the self titled disc (the last one with Sam).
To sum it up, a very good CD. A very different CD. Worth buying.

I finally got my christmas cd and my fanzine, I really like the christmas cd. I haven't tried to access the cd rom part of it though.

I picked up "infinity" the other day, and although I havn't given it too many listenings, I find it pretty 'noisy'.
Maybe it'll grow...
And, is "Ocean Machine" much better? (I've heard positive words on this before)
