Either they will tell the single release or just a hype video. Just a guess

"Hype videos" always remind me of Live in Milan. Not a very pleasant memory.

Is there any indication what track is likely to be the first single? A favourite with the bookies? My guess is....My Champion. Only due to its supposed track length and single-y type catchy title....

Saying that, it could be Crows On A Wire. The length is short and also the crow appears on the new merch...so its a possibility.

Those are my 2 guesses.

My Champion is one I'm looking forward to

If iheartradio is any indication, it's Show Me A Leader, which was my pick at the LP.

Gah so ambivalent about that!

Where does the July 2nd come from?

you know, something seems different about that artwork. I like it. I think its that it is more of an off-white/light brownish color than plain milk white. Seems a little more comic-book style to me.

I tend to prefer having the opening tracks as complete surprises when I listen to the album for the first time, so was semi considering avoiding the single to preserve that. Let's be honest though, not gonna happen. Will bleed that thing dry.

Post by **AB23** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 3:40 pm

so we'll probably be getting some new AB one week from Tuesday. Not too shabby

Post by **AB4Lyfe** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 3:42 pm

Two months out? Not bad. Released about 10 days before ATP, right?

Post by **SamarthJoshi** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 4:21 pm

AWEESOOOMEEEEEE!!!!!!

Pretty sure now that we are going to get more than one song before the album releases judging by how early the first single is getting released!

perfect timing too for the Dallas concert. Hopefully they start playing it live when its released

Guys, I don't know if this was already mentioned, but there appears to be a mix up regarding the singles release date with the band and the label, as per Tim Tournier; William Burkle posted about being excited for the single and Tim replied with this:

"Where did the august date come from?" - TimT
"I spoke to a band member and asked if it was correct" - Burkle
"I better look into that, I was just on call with the label and that wasn't the date haha" - TimT

This was 3 hrs ago on FB. So don't be hoping for a single so soon I guess. Or at least not as early as August 2nd.

Booooo....

Is it still going to be Show Me A Leader though or is that in question too?

That part was not addressed by Tim. Just the date for the single.
