Message 2 Now Online

idk...i guess the answer to this message is just "the catalyst". if its not then i have no idea what it could be. if it is right then im assuming we'll find out what it means and what a thousand suns is supposed to mean eventually

 

I don't like the puzzles and what not. Just release the god damn info on the album (my impatience side talking).

 

TEEHEE.

 

Yeah I'm agree. 1 puzzle = 1 answer, why two?

 

So, the song is pretty clearly about war right...?
What's the catalyst for war? Or more specifically, the only war anyone cares about at the moment.

Religion.
I think maybe we're meant to find the catalyst for the song? If that makes any sense.

 

exactly

 

all my favorite bands love messing around with their fans haha and "Early 2010" always becomes "June 2010" which becomes "Late 2010?"... Haha same thing happened with Angels and Airwaves... first LOVE was supposed to be out in early 2009, then it became Christmas 2009, then it became Valentine's Day 2010... didn't LP kinda do this with Minutes as well haha? Over zealous, over zealous...

 

I love the puzzles - Because when at the end of all this we get the album we can look back and think "how awesome" or something along those lines.
What would you rather - they tell us they release the album in Sept and nothing between now and then OR these puzzles to keep us entertained and create "Hype" - I love. I am loving watching people work them out and for Mike/LP to respond. Its a bit of fun until down the track when the release some hard info on dates. But I hope they make us guess that aswell!

 

I wouldn't care if it was solved already.
Purely cos those lyrics look like part of the best they've ever written, so I'm excited enough.

 

My only other thought on it is that they are talking about Death. Other than that, I'm out of ideas.

 

Don't know if anyone went this far yet ( and I didn't read back because it's frigging early right now! ) but I once heared about a important factor in making an A-bomb explode. Hence the former solution I thought it might be interesting to look into it:

Plutonium will not start a fast chain reaction by itself, but this difficulty is overcome by having a neutron source, a highly radioactive material that gives off neutrons faster than the Plutonium itself. In certain types of bombs, a mixture of the elements Beryllium and Polonium is used to bring about this reaction. Only a small piece is needed (super critical mass is about 32 pounds, though as little as 22 can be used). The material is not fissionable in and of itself, but merely acts as a catalyst to the greater reaction.

But then again....aw JUST GIVE US OUR ALBUM!!!

 

Agreed with the bit about overanalyzing things, but I'm not so sure about them releasing a track listing.

 

I'm not insane!

Green Fairy, tell 'em I ain't crazy!


"............"


See! I told you guys I wasn't mad!




I really like the word "Catalysis".

 

It seems kind of early for a track listing, if the album's released in September...

Dayumm, I'm preparing to be blown away when we can actually hear these lyrics over some good music.

 

now that i think about it, that does make more sense than just figuring out phrases that are describing what the album may be about...

 

I think ye had a bit too much absinthe thar.

I doubt its the tracklisting. The Catalyst as a song title was one of the first things stated by 8,000 people -even before Mike blogged on it - and yet the puzzle wasn't declared solved.
