Thief!

Yeah, I'm not exactly waiting with bated breath about this either, but we'll just have to wait and see. I thought Reflections was OK, Nothing But You and Crush imo are the best songs on it but his older stuff is WAY better and probably always will be.

I'm more curious to know how he came with the title rather than the music that will be on it. Sounds a little suspicious and going with the Vanity Fair article, I have to raise an eyebrow to it...

I'm kinda curious, but then, I'm kinda not.

waiting for this

out!

Yeah this is his first artist album since 2003's Reflections.

I think everyone would love to see a return to the style of tracks that he produced in his earlier years, but to be honest even if he did, it would get labeled as CHEESE.
Which is a stupid speculation at best.

If he does an album that was 'unexpected', trying different types of music, he would disappoint his long lived fans.

If he does an album that is typical PvD, it is more fuel for people who dislike him.

Either way he loses on TA.

It's just names... if he released the same stuff under different alias, and didn't tell anyone it was him, it would probably get a totally different review...

Personally I am looking forward to the release, and actually enjoyed a couple tracks off of reflections. I really loved his global dvd that he put out, it was fun to see pvd around the world, and had some great footage from clubs all over the place. I am glad to see artist albums and no more of this mix album crap. Artist albums ftw!

i totally don't agree. I don't know if you were around when PvD released his Out There And Back album back in 2000. Alot of people expected an album with the same sound as his For An Angel 98 but PvD instead went for a more progressive sound. Still this was well recieved among both the hardcore PvD fans and those who newly discovered him.

ya I was around, and loved the album, despite it being a bit more progressive, it was still very PVDish and held enough melody in all the tracks to be a great listen... and by modern standards, that kind of progressive is hardly ever heard anymore...

If he put out something like "face to face" or "Pikes" or even "another way", BUT used modern samples, beefed it up the bass a bit... it would without a doubt, be labeled as CHEESE.

my point is still that Out there and back was an album which showcased the new PvD sound (with or without melodies) and it still scored well among fans and critics.
I myself started to see the decline of PvD after the release of Nothing but you. I loved everything PvD touched until I heard that song. I was shocked. The tune was a disaster. And my fears were confirmed. It could only get worse and worse it did go.
