Wow, you're right that's really messed up! Seeing as the album is widely leaked already I dont see why they dont just go ahead and put it out there. I had my own cynical reasons about why they were waiting as long as August 22nd (TMV get a lot of college radio play, but there's not a lot of college radio in the summer, and seeing as most american schools go back the last week of august, TMV would be an easy add and would get a lot of radio play  ). But now that theory is shot to hell. who knows?

Oh man I can't wait for this album. But I thought I read somewhere earlier that Storm WAS doing the album art... Oh well. This new art looks pretty crazy, much more King Crimson. I'll pick up this album and "De-Loused", too.

Well then I'm blind. I can't see TMV trying to be like Tool.

As if "Vicarious" were a word Tool invented.  Fanboys annoy me (moreso on other forums where they're seriously accusing TMV of wanting to be Tool).

So pretentious sounding, but I don't care, I still like them and will probably get the album when it comes out.

I'm really excited about this new album. Of all the new prog bands, The Mars Volta are my favorite. There sound is so original and they really never fail to intrigue me. And judge from the song lengths they're not going to sell out.

There's rumors of a single being released June 28th.
tbh I hope they actually don't release a single for Amputecture.
"Thanks for sharing this!"
No prob, Marc.

haha Vicariousness is the theme of modern prog this year didn't anyone tell you? TMV I love you all, but I hope they found someone brave enough to tell Omar "Look you are amazing, an amazing guitarist amazing composer, but seriously chill out, the other half of musicality is blending, yes everyone can be musical on their own but I can smash a puzzle together with a hammer too" That is all.

holyCrap!! is this album looking to be TMV's most intense?? judging from the names, it probably will....
and that's sweet.
1's a cover of a tool song.
2's about creating words with tetris pieces
3's about that book series where rats and mice are knights and queens and stuff.
4's about the people who fix and make gundam's and evangelion's
5's about holy bee's and flies
6 is about people with eyes on their intestines
7's about a bunch of horney goat and ram head people
8's about a circus who's secrets are vulnerable
mark my words.

Hmm, I hope those are the correct track times! If so, the album is 76:23 long! That sounds pretty good to me!
I can't wait for this! I believe there was a news posting about a week or so ago, but not with the album art or the track times. Thanks for sharing this!

I know what I like and I like what I know. I will choose a path that's clear, I will choose free will. If I die tomorrow, I`d be alright because I believe that after we`re gone, the spirit carries on.
