wow! it's even better than their first album. it's now next to my SITE as my 2 fave CDs this year.
they have grown a bit musically, and it shows - whoever produced it did an amazing job on it.
the first single, Devil in a Midnight Mass, was written about a true story they read in a paper about a Boston area priest who had molested 150 kids over 30 years, was convicted, and knifed in prison by another inmate.

Maybe I'm in a different headspace these days, but I'm having a little trouble getting into this one. It sounds okay and maybe it will grow on me, but not yet.

I've heard the album a few times now and the single is by far the best song. I'm with Tidy...I can't get into it. The production is very good though.

After reading this in a mag and then watching the video I was really impressed by the Band, picking up such a hard subject for a song isn't easy, hopefully they get through to people and animate them to think and talk about stuff like that

I agree that this is a great album. I've heard it beginning to end once and I liked almost everything. I have to go pick that one up soon.

ok well Billy Talent recorded their gig @ Manchester Academy on 9/16/06 - the gig i was at, and there were only 1000 copies of that CD available - i got one right after the show. if anyone wants it, i ripped it to .mp3 @ 320 bitrate and posted it via torrent www.torrentbox.com/torrent_details?id=67523
