quite an interesting viewpoint there melly !  .. and thanks for the warning over COF.. I don't need another f***ng head ache !   :?

Seriously, 10 posts in and I'm close to ripping my hair out. It's just some bad photoshop. :oops: Time to click the little X on the right corner that solves all problems!

I made my comment because of the earlier ones which were basically referring to Robert "choosing" America over his own or other countries and people seemed to be upset over this choice, thinking he was preferring the States over another country. Robert happened to choose some pic of stars and stripes ( could be his boxer shorts for all we know) which fired up the comments previously. Whether he retains that shot or not, I was just trying to explain to the people who were obviously miffed by this choice what it could mean. BTW wish man I posted my comments after "disintegration" echoed your first post, no need to get so defensive.....

What about Club America? How come no one ever complained about that?

Or Japanese Whispers, A Japanese Dream, Kyoto Song, Fire In Cairo, Siamese Twins, Killing an Arab, or Jupiter Crash?

Those all have the names of ACTUAL places in them...

"Down Under"

I'm sorry I just couldn't help myself. You can smack me  :P
The other one feeds on my hesitation
Grows inside of my trepidaton
Buries his claws in my dislocation
I whisper your name to lose control

Goody!

PS "America" is NOT the same as "The United States of America". I know, I know. Another pet peeve of mine... can't help it..

I thought that too billee... " Oh, how nice, Robert has composed a song for Aussies, he must have REALLY enjoyed himself here"!!
although I must admit, the "Down Under" inference immediately makes me think of that well known ditty by Men At Work...don't think we'll ever hear Robert singing about vegemite sandwhiches !!    :smth042

Hehehe Melly
Yeah I thought of Vegemite sandwiches too when I heard the title.
Thank god it is nothing like the Men At Work song. Sick to death of the wretched sounds of "I come from the land down under ". Unpatriotic b*tch I am. With the Olympics just around the corner I'm sure I'll have to get the earplugs out  :smth078

Hypnagogic States is a pun -- sort of. The US reference is clear from the picture he posted, but I wouldn't assume just yet that that is the EP artwork. It doesn't seem particularly Parched Art to me, but then I'm just a guy on a board; what do I know? Let's wait and see.

Yeah, Robert has already stated on the official site that the flag image will not be the EP artwork. Actually, I kind of liked it...

Anyway, probably there are already too many record covers with the USA flag on it. My favourite is probably this one ( 8) ):

This just in:

"Here's the list Universal has:
The Only One remixed by Jared Leto (30 Seconds to Mars)
Freakshow remixed by Jade Puget (AFI)
Sleep When I'm Dead remixed by Gerard Way (My Chemical Romance)
The Perfect Boy remixed by Pete Wentz & Patrick Stump (Fall Out Boy)"

From Craig @ Chain of Flowers.

I am going to go turn out the lights, lie perfectly still on my side, and think of all this EP could have been.

See you on the floor.

I don't know any of that EMO stuff. It's supposed to be awful, so I have always stayed away from it... But maybe there aren't many good remixers out there nowadays? In the 90's, people like Kruder & Dorfmeister and Fila Brazillia did some great stuff with fairly famous pop/rock material. For instance, K&D did a great remix of Depeche Mode's "Useless" and Fila Brazillia did magic with Radioheads' "Climbing up the Walls" and Lamb's "Cotton Wool".

Please confer them here. It's worthwhile:

Well, to me Freakshow and SWID are so bad that there's no way making them worse by remixing...

Then again if MCR, FOB and AFI fans come in herds to buy Cure records - awesome!

Im just waiting for the last single and then the Disintegration reissue new album. This seems like just a bit of a fun novelty and I dont really expect it to be any good. The reason for so many lamers doing the remixing is because their on a major label.

I also heard that Sleep When I'm Dead is being remixed by some guy called Julian-K. So maybe the list isnt real...
