Rabbit Don't Come Easy was good, but not great!

[Headhunter]

I'll probably get the Deftones one, after picking up the Team Sleep album.

[Hiromi]

The fact that Helloween's making a third Keeper album means this one will have some pretty lofty standards to live up to.

[TheLewisShow]

Bummer about Transport League. I knew that was coming though.

The wife and I are really looking forward to the new Fear Factory CD. I'm going to grab the Deftones CD too.

[ghostrider666]

Hard Attack has been playing a coupl etracks off the new FF album. They're not great. FF has been slowly spiraling since Obsolete IMO.
The stuff Ive heard off the new Deftones album is surprisingly good.

Or that they're trying to cash in on their past successes.

If the album comes out great, I won't care about their motivations.

[DonC]

Neither will I, but we need to hear it first.
