^That I know, but considering King Of Loss was on TPE 1, I would have expected a song titled Kingdom Of Loss to be on TPE 2 (and when the hell will they be getting round to do that!?)

Good news. It's not much, but at least they have something to keep us thinking about.

Well Daniel's done all the bass work this time out and I think he writes most of the music anyway, its who they get in to replace Kristoffer Gildenlow for when they go on tour that I'm worried about.

I have a good feeling Flame to the Moth and Enter Rain will be the best songs. I'm beginning to think there's a concept behind putting two words together for three consecutive song titles (Scarsick-Spitfall-Cribcaged).

I don't think they are. I forgot where I read it, but I don't think they plan on writing a part 2.

I remember reading the interview on here with DG and he said that its possible after this album (Scarsick).

With names like Idiocracy and America, my guess is that POS has joined the Bush-hating that a lot of bands, prog and otherwise, put into their lyrics these days (not saying that's a bad thing, I happen to agree with the sentiment generally)
Assuming that's the route they've taken, I just hope it isn't as overdone and literal as in the recent Muse album. The lyrics to IQ's Harvest of Souls are a good example of how to do this sort of thing right.

Pain of Salvation has tackled a lot of controversial issues, poorly I might add. Their first two albums featured many horrible concepts I could not tolerate, and they weren't convincing at all (not to mention I think they're trashy neo-hippies). The music is normally average or above, but the political thought is generally best left out of music in my opinion. Musicians are not usually experts on war, economy, government, or anything really.... except music (if that!). Just play the music and shutup I say.
With song titles like those, I presume Gildenlow will continue disliking America and its policies (where many of his fans are from). If that's all not insulting enough, try this. Gildenlow refused to tour the United States with the Flower Kings a few years back because he didn't want the American Government to have his fingerprints (which you must do in order to enter of course). What a hippy, like I said.
I hope he doesn't stoop down to his previous levels again, I just want some quality music. The entertainers of our world frequently take idiotic stances, and beyond that this guy's not George Orwell.
