Bleep hung for me creating the zip file. I cancelled that and downloaded the tracks individually instead and got pretty fast downloads.
So far this is sounding pretty good to me. Better than Untilted.

It's only released digitally today. The CDs won't come before march 3rd. I've already pre-ordered the special edition CD. Must resist getting mp3s.

I come from the old school generation where we like music that is actaully enjoyable to listen to, or considered music for that matter.
congratulations. you are now your parents!

the new album is full of the most old school sounding stuff they've done in a decade or more. Some of the movements/tracks are almost straight up Amber, with touches of the modern sound sprinkled about. There's also a few tracks/parts that were part of the 2005 tour, and a lot of the same kinds of tricks and sounds that were on the last 3 full lengths. It's way more accessible than I was expecting. Loving it; bought the Flac version and pre-ordered the double cd even though it made my wallet bleed.
now, can anyone share the track by track art that came with the MP3 version only? totally sucks that they left that out of the FLAC version purchase.
I'm on my fourth full listen and it's two thumbs way up so far.

Flac meta data doesn't support album art I believe...
+1 for sharing the track art though... They should have included it in the zip.
++1 Still waiting, the site is sloooooooow.
