I don't see why it wouldn't be. None of the singles from Burn Burn had falsetto, but from what Raine says this first one from Album 8 is going to have a lot. I think they're really determined to make Album 8 stand out as unique and creative, singles included.

You can't really base anything off Burn Burn yet.

While Burn Burn singles didn't really represent the album, or atleast having one of the better songs as a single, we have only heard 1 full song. We have no idea if other songs are better or more unique.

For all we know, The Wolf could end up being one of the least favorite tracks off the album.

Which I'd be fine with, since I fucking love The Wolf.

I'm getting pumped for this new album (something I'm afraid to let myself do after the last two)... but it just sounds so promising... i've been mostly happy with the little 20 second youtube clips, and raynes tweets are building up my excitement.

Does anyone have an idea on when we can expect to hear a new song? I am unfamiliar with the process of producing songs, so i don't know what has to be done until his new song with more than stick beatable fallsetto goes from his recording pc to my ear drums? I get that it has to be recorded and then mixed... but how do they decide when to release it to the public?

From the sounds of things, we can maybe expect a single in November/December. Keyword is maybe tho.

Yeah... November/December in Raine time is like phhssst.... I won't even speculate on that. There isn't a formula to calculate Raine time. It just varies too much!

Yeah... But I am looking for the album release in early 2013... er, 2012.

My doubt is...the first single of Album 8 will be out before 29th November?(Date of release of We all get lighter)?

Just a little FYI for everyone that is getting impatient with Album 8...

I did some quick calculations, and if it comes out before May 2012 (which is a great possibility), then the gap between Burn Burn and Album 8 will be shorter than the gap from Naveed to Clumsy. And in order to equate the gap between Gravity and HIPT, it would have to come out no earlier than September 2012. So I think we can be pretty confident that this album won't follow the trend of the last two and be the biggest gap yet.

I agree with this. Howver I still worry they might push it for another Summer release.

EDIT:

Not really news but Raine's tweets still seem to point towards alot of falsetto:

Some Girl: @MrRaineMaida - In the '90s, your falsetto voice was so unique like Billy Corgan's — he still sings with that voice today, why don't you

Raine: @ChloeGeeMoretz - patience.....

I hope that the demo "warnings" makes the new album, been listening to it lately and really digging the lyrics

RileyLewis · Post by **RileyLewis** » 11/2/2011, 5:48 pm

Yes! Warnings marks the return of solid minor chords in OLP music!

It sounds like a great song.

DG · Post by DG » 11/2/2011, 5:58 pm

I love the clip of Warnings. I'm really looking forward to hearing the rest of the song. So it damn well better make the album.

The silence is killing me.

Any word on anything new? I found the free download of Fight the Good Fight... but i need more.

I know I need an update. Raine tweeted yesterday that a single/record are "imminent".

OLPManiac · Post by **OLPManiac** » 11/3/2011, 4:12 pm

The problem it's...it's a Raine's imminent or the common meaning of imminent? hahahahah Guys i really can't wait!

Didn't they say a month ago that a single would drop in November?
