Loving the song, can't stop listening to it and liked that reaction video...

August 2nd? Proper video perhaps? Hopefully not a second song already...!

Thanks for sharing the isolated vocals and instrumental. Always love hearing them separately because I can focus on the little subtle parts of each that get lost when it’s all full blast.

I think I like that OMWN is only that live video recording. It’s a special part of being a long time AB fan. It would be weird to hear a recording without that guy saying “sit your ass down”.

August 2nd? What’s happening?!?! I’m out of the loop.

Anybody else notice the snake tail that isn't attached to anything?

There's 4 snakes in the image. Red and blue we can see mostly the start and end of, green is in the skull so we only see the tail end but purple's not attached to anything.

Also, if you look at the statues, they alternate which way they're facing, except for pinky boy doubling the position of the guy above him and who also just so happens to have a crown. His counterpoint at 3 o'clock also doubles the same position as the guy under hum but is facing away based on hand position, but his head is obscured.

It could enter through the foramen magnum and exit the left orbit

Could the green in the skull be the tail of the blue right below the skull?
Another photobucket casualty... :(

I was thinking that at one point but the tail coming out of the eye is wider than the top of the blue, although it's kinda hard to see with the green traced over it. I'm more confused by purple

PAK is definitely growing on me as a song.

Also am I the only one who, during the last chorus right before it or during it hears Myles emphasize the “FOR ALL OF THE” part?

But yeah are we gonna get another single soon? Can’t wait months until the album lol.

Looks like we might be getting the song Silver Tongue on August 2nd. For me, it's a bit soon for sure. If true, it might have been better to wait a few more weeks lol. But of course, I will still listen to it immediately.

If true it matches what Tremonti did on ADM, longer one as the first "release" with a true radio single put out not long after.
For all of the hope that it brings...

I can honestly say that this album has already inspired me to learn to play chess.

I think you are right, the green is the blue in disguise.

It sort of makes sense since P&K, for a few reasons, has basically zero chance at getting any airplay. So there's no need to wait to let the first single go through its cycle before releasing another.

Again, where’s the proof it will be silver tongue other than some guy saying he thinks it will be based on the description in the press release

genius.com has Silver Tongue listed for release on August 2nd. They also did the same thing for Marching In Time's August 3rd release last year way before it was announced publicly and it was accurate.

Hoping for some Myles/Mark harmonies in this one.
