I'm gonna get killed for this, but I thought that title was good. melancholic and one that sticks.

but I like the actual, announced one, too. very much.

Frontman James Dean Bradfield said that the album would be an unashamedly pop-orientated affair following 2009's bleak 'Journal For Plague Lovers'.


Bleak? C'mon....
These comments don't sound too good to my ears.

I also much prefer the title to the working title, and was a bit concerned about the last shot at mass communication bit, just because it's a final/negative few words - I was worried I'd come on here after going to the official site to find you'd all known about something that stated it would be the last album.

I seem to be one in the minority that preferred the working title. I suppose this title will grow on me. That's what I'm hoping anyway.

Well, it's supposed to be their last with Sony... unless they renegotiated their contract at some point.

I think James seems to have cleared up the last shot at mass communication part. In that this is their last shot at appealing to the masses on the radio etc.

Wonder if they'll do something like they did with the Underdogs 7"? Hope we get a download track or something within the next couple of weeks, at least!
