Tremonti's second album "Cauterize" June 2015!

[Ubik]

I guess that answers the "should he be doing solos?" question then. The answer is yes, yes he jolly well should.

Pinky bar, what a beast!

Yeah, when I saw that, I looked at my pinky and just thought, "I seriously don't think my pinky can bend like that!" Guess I'll have to figure out a work around on it when I try to tackle this song later today.

I ordered one Cauterize album, got it a day before it was released, and just received a second today with a signed pamphlet... anyone else have this happen to them? Is it a bonus from the listening party?

Maybe Tim Tournier knows?

What beneficial and glorious insight Shea! I can always count on you to provide me with instant helpful information! :thumbsup

Might try emailing Fret12.
Though, I emailed them about my missing liner notes booklet from my preordered copy and I haven't gotten a reply from them about it, so....

After you said that I went and checked my mail. On my approach, I could hear the muffled rhythm of a thousand chariots trembling the ground. Lo and behold, upon turning the key, the mailbox burst open with dank riffs and glorious vocals erupting in all directions. And there, in the middle of this sunbeam pouring gloriously through the apartment complex parking lot, was an autographed cover, still dripping in the sweat of the 4 musical heroes that braved stygian horrors in the creation of this album.

So yeah, I got one too, must have been a listening party perk. Gotta love Fret 12 man, I wish more companies were like this. Now I just have to figure out who to give this to since I already bought a few copies and handed them out.

[slasherbridge]

That was beautiful.

I still want my liner notes, dammit.

I got one too. It's a bonus from the listening party. Tim only sent them to some of the die hards.

Haha really?! So not everyone got one who went?

[TTournier]

I asked him on Twitter and he said he "Hopes so!"

They are so teasing us first it was the fret 12 insta pic of them filming Mark at headquarters, then the pro-shot of Cauterize live in Chicago, the Cauterize promo pic on social media would so be the DVD cover, and now this free lesson formatted like the S&S from the past. Plus, I asked Tim in the Cauterize thread about it and he completely ignored the question but answered my other one. They're being hush hush but there's GOTTA be one after all this teasing I'll be so let down if there isn't

i didn't ignore you - I answered your questions. I have said a bunch of times that we film everything, we want to put out a big making of TREMONTi kinda thing that shows the band from day 1 through the next record.

Ill keep putting little nuggets out but nothing to big... ya gotta wait for it.

That will definitely be cool considering how much the style and group changed since the beginning.

Fair enough, looking forward to it whenever that may be thanks for some info Tim, I'm sure we all appreciate it

It's kinda sad to see them start popping up on Ebay

[Ryan]

Unless I misread his message...which I totally could have yeah he only sent them to some.

I think Mark signed mine twice. I'll be keeping mine lol.

I went ahead and decided I've had enough listens to properly compare the two albums; and this was the ranking I came up with in terms of favorite to least favorite songs. I'll be completely honest and say the "ABABAB" format for the first 10 songs was completely unintentional. Anyone else want to give it a shot? This is going to be so hard when Dust comes out.

I think So You're Afraid is too long and the chorus is lacking. Solo is meh. Wish You Well is too fast paced and it's just not a easily related song, IMO. Fall Again is the perfect length, it's different (the intro/outro), has a better vocal performance and 2 solos. That's how.
