I don't think it's going to be Catholics-style rock by the sounds of it, but much more Honeycombish. But I defer that to someone who's heard it...

He was, but I don't think it'll be a rocker album nonetheless...

no I cant give copies sorry...Its very honeycombish but with some smooth bluesy jams in it. I like it alot but that doesnt surprise me. I like everything he does. Im waiting for the approval to release track names. I wish I could share it really I do. But I respect the man as an artist and a friend and wouldnt do It without his approval.I will say that on one song there is another man doing vocals with charles and it is a real good song. Cant wait to find out the title of the album :)!!!!

I propose this thread should be locked because he's either being a real ass and messing with us, or people will start demanding that he post where he got it. Which I wish he would, but that's beside the matter.

No I got the songs via email. I dont even know the title let alone have any cover art. I think REAL fans will really like it. Im sorry I even let the cat out of the bag!! I was just sooo psyched to get it and my wife isnt interesred at all so I had to let people who do care know that the man is still out there and you people should be getting psyched about a new album. I think real fans will hear that no, the new album aint the pixies and no it isnt FBTC but the man writes beautiful songs with in this albums case extremely clear vocals and layers of good music. I can take all the slamming and insults....I dont care...Im listening to the new album right now :)

well I have now listened to the whole thing all the way through....I need to take back the comparison to Honeycomb on my previous post. This album DEFINITLEY is not honeycomb2!! It Rocks harder as Tiven said. Its not the Pixies though. The song "Dog Sleep" is awesome....Horns and everything!!! real "sassy". I will post more opions when I have more time...

I call bullshit on this guy.
Even if by some slight chance he is legit, screw him anyhow for dangling the carrot and then yanking it away. Probably not the only yanking he's up to. |

No, if I were a REAL fan, I'd be circulating air.

Ditto. I am among many here who worship Frank yet simultaneously pray for a non-Honeycomb feel for this next album.

he's not really yanking it away, probably just trying to prevent tiven from coming in here and having a big shit fit like he did last year. obviously making copies/distributing it in any way is a horrible idea and a big no-no. he does know frank, i remember him telling us that the baby would be named jack at least a few months before he was born. but that's neither here nor there.
i have to say that i really dislike this whole "real fan" bullshit. i don't care if the new record doesn't sound like the catholics or the pixies or solo or whatever, i just want it to be good. honeycomb = not so good.

i love how he comes here offering the new album, then suddenly "magically discovers" that it hasn't been released yet (NO SHIT) and changes his mind. If that's the case, then keep it to yourself. All you're doing is pissing everyone off.
Yes I'll buy the album. I've bought every album. Yes I pirated Honeycomb when it leaked. And yes I still bought it. And although that's not really the point, the fact is that if they didn't let an album SIT for 8 months to a year after it's completed then shit like this wouldn't happen and you wouldn't have rabid die hard Frank Black fans going insane over news of a leak.
So if Tiven gets all pissy about it, then maybe they should try to get to releasing stuff a little earlier and this wouldn't happen. I wouldn't publicly distribute it either, but there are ways to be discreet.
And if Mr. Tiven and Mr. Thompson like, I would gladly pay them each 50 dollars a piece just to have the record now.
But that's just my two cents on the situation...

Dean weighs in on:
"The magical discovery" - Probably due to an email I sent him, though I agree it's difficult to believe he got Honeycomb 2 via email and had no idea what it was.
Being the one to leak a CD - I don't really support starting a leak, especially if doing so is betraying the trust of the person who gave you the CD in the first place, so I see no need to pressure him into this.
Dangling carrot - Well, he shouldn't have posted period, and I'm not a fan of the "I got it and you don't, nyah" but since he has posted and doesn't seem eager to rub it in our faces (apologetically excited is a better way of putting it) I'd rather hear details (I don't have any objections with a leaked tracklist, for example) than nothing at all.
Being a real fan - We're all on a Frank Black fansite posting. I'd say there's no question everyone here's a fan.
Just my thoughts.

Ok, On some points....I didnt say the real fan thing trying to say anybody here wasnt a real fan...exactly the opposite, I said that because I know all of you are real fans and would appreciate the album whether you liked it or not because it came from the man. Secondly I apologize for dangling the carrot but as soon as I got the album I came to the sight ready to let everyone hear it and I got a very to the point letter from Tivan telling me the record company hadnt even heard it yet and asking me not to send it out early. I told him I would respect Charles' wishes and certainly wouldnt release it. For that I am sorry. I am no teenager who wanted everyone to know that I was better than them or anything like that. I love FB.net and the people on here. I will tell you the song names since I havent heard from Tivan telling me not to...They are as follows: 1. If your poison gets you 2.Johnny Barleycorn 3.Fast Man 4.You cant crucify yourself 5.Dirty Old Town 6.Wanderlust 7.Seven days 8.Raider Man 9.End of Summer 10.Dog Sleep (my favorite) 11.When the paint grows darker still (with some other familiar country singer) 12.Im not dead (Im in pittsburgh) 13.Golden Shore
I almost regret saying anything about the album its just that I was so pumped up to let people know about it that I spoke before I thought. I am sorry for that and I hope everyone on FB.net accepts my apology
wish I could be as cool as Kim Deal |
