It's kind of an odd title for them but the first thing I did was count the syllables.

I immediately had to think of Marilyn Manson's Mechanical Animals album. I'm sure it'll sound different though.

I can't say I really like the new song, the one supposed to be the new single. Despite the 3 videos I watched so far. I am waiting to hear the studio version or watch a much clearer video to make up my mind. It just didn't make me dance on my chair at all, and during the 1st listen I just cut the video right in the middle because it bored me. But I really liked the 1st song we heard couple of weeks ago. I guess it's going to be a case of wait and see. But those 2 songs seem to "rock" so it's good enough for me at the moment.

The first song was pretty good, but this new song--assuming this is "Supersoaker" they've been talking about--is kind of blah. Definitely gave me the OBTN vibe.

This song is definitely poppier than Always The Same, but it's not bad at all and I think it's a good choice for a first single (if it is indeed Supersoaker). I think it's also poppier and bit more rockier than the singles off CAS, so the people who loved that album but aren't too familiar with the the rest of their music, won't be scared away. There really aren't that many hardcore fans who post here or on other sites about the band and/or who go to as many gigs as possible, so we're not the people who the music is exclusively aimed at. Singles especially still have to cater to the masses. And those couple of 1000s who are really nuts about the band will get the album anyway. For me, it wasn't love at first hearing with this song as it was with Always The Same, but upon listening to it a few more times it already started to grow on me. So all in all I'm not disappointed at all.

Here's the other new song (supposedly first single Supersoaker) for those who missed it elsewhere around the interwebs.

I think, the first song we heard (Always the Same ?) is a bit more catchy, but i also like this new song. I'm glad, that these two songs are definitely rockier than the most of CAS. All in all i can't wait for "Mechanical Bull" (btw i've instantly counted the syllables as i heard about the album title and i'm glad, that i'm not alone )

Supposedly, there is a 3rd song that has been played off the record called "cruel". It was played, supposedly, during the MTV Hangout fest. Anybody seen this, or can back it up? There are articles and even lyrics, so I'm not just posting off of what is rumored.

Only 2 New songs have been played so far; 'Don't Matter' and 'Supersoaker'.

I remember reading a tweet about a radio DJ saying he heard 3 songs off the new album and how great they were. We heard two so far (I guess they are the ones he heard), are we going to hear a 3rd one soon ?
On an other note super soaker is really growing on me. I am curious to hear their influences for this new album. Do you think we're going to have those 'behind the scene videos' that we had for CAS ? I gave up hope for any new home videos.

Surely there'd be more talk about it if they had played a 3rd new song at Hangout Fest. But since that apparently was a MTV gig, and Matt Pine (one of the people to have said he's heard 3 [great] new songs) works for MTV, things might've gotten mixed up a bit. Only a month (minus a day ) anymore till Supersoaker is released now! I hope there'll be a video diary of some sort leading up to the release of the album. It's been fun with the previous two. )

Dont you guys think the instrumentation sounds like AHA SHAKE HEARTBREAK with an upbeat RAGOO Vibe ? Sounds like THE BUCKET with a TAPER JEAN GIRL BEAT with a ragoo squirmy bassline (my favorite part. Listen to it on headphones, this version is very good. The vocals are very OBTN and CAS especially on the chorus , given the dragged out harmonies etc... I have a feeling the Album version is gonna make us very happy. i have a feeling this album will be more like the first three for SURE . www.youtube.com/watch?v=piSHDUhJU-s

I got a bit of a ASH vibe too when I had the album on in my bedroom and then watched videos with the new songs over it. It blended in nicely. The people who interviewed the band at Pinkpop this weekend, got to listen to four new songs (oh yea, one more than the American guys ) and they said it would make new fans look into the older work, because it's more like that than it is like OBTN & CAS. But then Jared has also recently said (I think in his latest Twitter Q&A) that it still has a CAS vibe too. Guess we won't know for sure till it's late September!

I will not be there when the new album is released, can you believe that ? I have been waiting for it all this time and just when it's out I will be away, typical. I hope there will be some pre-order or something so it will wait for me in my mail box by the time I come back. But hopefully I will have a lot articles/interviews/tv appearances to catch up on.
