Interesting that a news article about the album being released is posted a day before the release...

Just heard the sample song, really cheesy and average. Oh well will jam the stream, maybe they'll be one badass song.

This leaked btw. Overall it's a much better album than Build A Nation, not up to the level of the ROIR
Sessions, Rock For Light, or I Against I but I'd solidly put it about at the level of Quickness. It's a
great mix of their whole career, half the album is standard Brains hardcore-meets-metal-punk and the other
half is mainly dub/reggae, much like Build A Nation only done a lot better. The reggae numbers are solid,
especially MCA Dub, great closer. HR actually does a solid job (much better than on Build A Nation anyways)
and the band is still great, especially Dr. Know. Musically they still have it. Most importantly, it's
produced well. For a bunch of 50 somethings that's pretty awesome.

I only posted this because there was NO news on the new album at all, and all of the pertinent info was a
month or two old already. Sad that sputnik didn't catch any of it

If the rest of the album is anything like this song, this album should never have been made.
