Money's money.  License it through McDonald's, I don't care.  They need to at least break even on this monster.  It doesn't matter how they do it, as long as they get the job done.

Off topic, but doesn't Best Buy offer a lowest price guarantee?  If that's the case, they'll credit you the difference + beat the price by an additional 10%.  I just went through that ridiculous and grueling process with my new TV when a competitor beat Futureshop's (Best Buy's Canadian entity) price by $40.

I can't believe this song is getting such a positive reaction.  Fantastic!!  I love it, but I thought the fanbase would be more split when we heard something like this.  It's completely different from everything we have so far.  I was one of the ones turned off by the last set of leaks because of the lack of hardcore rockers.  This track has restored my faith that something good might come from this band after all.

I always said everything would sound dated and stale because of the time it has taken to get to this point.  This song sounds current and relevant.  I think it has the potential to make a splash and can change a lot of opinions of the new band.  I'm looking forward to whatever other efforts they can put forth.

It also hints at the trilogy idea once again.  With all the songs we have so far and very differing styles between them, we can lump similar tracks together and put them on the same disc.  At the same time, it hints that the band has been going in many many different directions since recording began and we've seen the delays as they haven't settled on a particular style for one album.  It's a mess.
