I would just like to know if you are as angry with whoever leaked this as you are with the dedicated fans that have it in their hands now? Have you made an attempt to contact TBK management to find out how this happened? You had the gaul to call many of us f'ing cheaters, have you sought out the ultimate cheater in all this? I'm guessing it had to be someone the band trusted. Why is it put in the hands of people that can't be trusted if these leaks continue to happen? As many of us have mentioned, we've put a lot of money into the band, and this upcoming release. My money is just as green as those who will hear it on May 18th.

The Black Keys management information can be found on the page. Please make an effort to find out how this happened.

Sorry Lengths for coming across so harsh. I apologize for calling anybody a cheater. I was just caught up in my frustrations.

I understand man, no harm done.

What are your frustrations? Just that the albumn leaked? I'm sure the band is as well. I really think this stuff can be stopped if its kept out of certain hands. I dont profess to know how all the pre-release stuff works but my guess would be that something could be done about who's hands the albumn is put in.

Glad to see you've calmed down dude.

I do have a question though - you seem very upset by this situation... what do you stand to lose or gain?

who knows whats in store for dodging future album leaks...bands are going to have to either capitalize on it or have a big brother step in and duke it out for them.

i won't....for all you know I'm just some piece of crap lunatic that could care less about the black keys.

really, I'm the opposite, but I've been drinking Taiwanese gold label beer for the past two hours and decided to let this board see what has become my best impression of Mr. Hyde.

I have a crazy idea. Future leaks can be prevented by NOT LEAKING THE ALBUM.

I don't believe all the "well they have to put the album out there in advance to generate buzz" BULLSHIT.

That's what singles are for.

If you send your album out to people, it will be leaked. Right, wrong, whatever - it's a fact. So knowing that fact, bands should wisen up if they care that much about leaks.

lol ah wells i think we've argued and discussed enough about leaks and selling out and marketing. now the album is out there and for those with will power out there in 2 months i think we should jst dig it n stop the bickering. the albums shud b streamed maybe from the record labels website that radios have to have a password to to airplay it or summin i dunno! but anywys enoughs enough. the albums cool and my faveourite song is im not the one... i think that resonates with many of us as we've all felt that way and as a writer coz its always great to write about damaged characters!
