Lars wrote:Yeah, maybe he has, but there's a lot of stuff that wouldn't make the record. Like the song Cone wrote, or like the music that was playing in one of the early updates "I don't know if the music you're hearing right now will even make the record".

So yes, he has written many songs, but that's not a certitude for a lot of songs on the album. Unfortunately.

I hope so, that's like a Christmas present or maybe a New Year present for the loooooooooooong wait

Most likely it will be free but i would gladly pay 0.99 cents-1.29 for 12 minutes of sum 41 goodness.

Anyways, does anybody have any ideas on what this song might/should sound like? lol i would LOVE 12 minutes of epicness, it killing me because i never heard a sum song longer then 4:00 (not counting the Master Of Puppets cover) and i just wanna hear how it would turn out

Lex about the 12-minute song wrote:yeah, i don't think i could compare it properly without having heard the vocals.

but, it was definitely more metal sounding than jesus of suburbia. darker than jesus of suburbia.

do you know the breakdown of 88? da-da-da-da da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da where stevo plays the snare drum, sounding like a machine gun? they did that for a while in the middle.

there were no individual instrument solos. i didn't even hear a guitar solo... i hope it's cause tom didn't play it and just played the rhythm. but there were many cool riffs. including one that was pull the curtain esque, where they were emphasising the off beat or the "and". they also seemed to copy/adapt the syncopated refrain of metallica's battery. da da-da-da da-da (snare crash-crash-crash snare-crash) only did it once though.

there were definitely more feel changes than jesus of suburbia. i just loved it when the song was in 6/8... way more complex than with me was, in that respect. and i think it had a cooler build up. an excellent crescendo which led into a guitar riff for 4 bars or so, then cone and stevo came back in with a bang. just imagine all the feels sum 41 have done: motivation intro, still waiting main riff, in too deep verse, pieces chorus, 88 breakdown, no brains bridge (there seemed to be many bridges), we're all to blame chorus (but on crashes instead of ride), ... and string all that together, but sounding much more progressive than these songs do!

i bet it will be better than jesus of suburbia.

dbauer91 wrote:as ballsy an idea a 12-minute song is, i'm pretty weary about it. there are some occasions where like 8+ minute songs work (master of puppets is 8:35 and worth every second), but then again some songs like that just DRAG ON if they get too long (oasis' "all around the world" for example; and i don't even wanna hear any 'oasis suck anyway' stuff, cuz they're amazing). but that was just one example. there are plenty of songs that are simply too long (some smashing pumpkins stuff, like "silverfuck" or "porcelina of the vast oceans" for instance). and none of those songs i listed are even 10 minutes - imagine an extra 2 or 3 on top of that. again, it is sum 41, who tend to kick ass, but 12 minutes is VERY long for a single song, so i'm definitely a little hesitant about the idea.

for someone that doesn't like long-ish songs, its weird that my fave songs on UC (minus SOTD) and 2nd fave on Chuck are 4min + Never really noticed that... I usually get bored after 3:50
