Why yes Plato wrote:Shit, it's leaked already. Looking forward to listening to my legit copy. Can't do anything about the damn torrents, but the blogs are easy targets for DMCA's. Unless you consider pirated distribution free promotion, of course
I consider pirated distribution theft. Unless I can sell every CD I had pressed, I can't afford to make another CD. I would like to think downloaders are just kids who sit around watching youtube all day, and who wouldn't buy it in the first place. I think the true Heavy Metal fans want the actual physical product. I really appreciate all of you guys who have supported this release by buying it. Thanks.

Just ordered this. I must admit I was never blown away with the demos of last year, but these album samples sounds outstanding.

I loved the initial demo songs, but now that I have a couple dozen spins of the full-length, the demos (or more specifically the vocal lines) sound inferior. I think a few of the vocal lines here and there still come off a bit awkwardly, but it's not a big deal. This is honestly one of the better doom metal albums of the past decade, and I'm pretty well aware of what's out there. A Meeting in the Woods is just too good. Speaking of that song, are the lyrics about any specific story? I can't pinpoint one.

Dodens Grav: Thanks. "A Meeting In The Woods" is basically me looking back at Nathaniel Hawthorne's"Young Goodman Brown" with H.P. Lovecraft and Clark Ashton Smith-tinted vision.

I ordered this and I hope it arrives soon. Been a long-time love of Cauldron Born and loved the demo songs. From what I'm hearing it's a great release so I hope it lives up to the hype.
