i think i just fainted. this is great news! i'll be sure to reserve my copy as soon as i can.

Uh, it was offically announced about a month ago... 😕

All the same, this is one of the albums i am looking forward to most this year. 😄

it may have been, but i havnt been online that much to check, and everything in NZ comes out late anyway.

i hope its one of their better albums, like train of thought. i prefer their heavier stuff

Yeah there heavier stuff is good, i also adore there more melow work.

awake is my favourite album, i think it has te best mix of mellow and heavy, but thats just my opinion

From MP himself:

Of course, as always, I was hesitant to post this - but I decided I'd rather *us* unveil it than some underground website from Greece or Poland (like how Train Of Thought was unveiled)

Let me just say you are only getting a taste of what the artwork and layout has in store for you.

I worked very closely for several weeks with the great Hugh Syme and think the end result of the packaging is the best we've had for any of our albums in the past.

I already see so many of you being critical, and that's to be expected, but you know the old cliched expression: "Don't judge a book by it's cover...."
(although in this case, I personally dig it....)

Can't wait for you to hear what's inside of it!
