i haven't even finished downloading it yet... but the album art looks amazing... who did the art?

Thanks so much! The art is by Luana Silense. She has some awesome art that you should check out!

hey it sounds great :) ...Ordered ! Can't wait to listen to your CD while driving to work.

The more times I listen the album, the more I love it. Thank you :)

A couple of minutes ago, I ordered a physical copy of your new album without having listened to more than "Let it In" on YouTube. I'm really excited and as Ian already said, the cover art is absolutely great!

Just finished listening to it once (thanks for sending flac links until this amazing cd can be shipped) I was very impressed even on this first impression. This album feels so different from the other albums and yet so familiar. I was especially pleased with "Let It In" and "Swimming in Turpentine", not because they are my favourite songs on this album, but because the very unexpected, yet highly appreciated style. I will have to listen to it a lot more and sort out my favourites and see how the songs grow and develop. Right now "Together On Our Own" and "A Thousand Skins (Part 1)" left the biggest impressions. They just "work" for me. I think the long time this album needed was very well spent. p.s.: Would it be possible for you to sign the new album before sending it? I think it would be cool to have an autographed album.

Thanks a million, I'm so glad you like. And of course, I'll take a Sharpie to it when it goes out :)

Love the album, definitely gonna be listening to it for a while. Great job! :)

The second half + coda is fantastic. These are probably the best songs you ever have written.

This is right up there with NQC as my favorites, perhaps even -the- favorite. "Cherubs" is just brilliantly bittersweet.

hi josh. i'm one of your fans and i really love some of your works. i'd love to buy your orginal cds but there is a problem here. i'm in iran and there is noway that i can buy your cds.maybe you don't know where is it,no problem. just tell me how i can get your works with high quality. thanks for every thing

You could buy the FLACs instead, if there is no possibility of receiving CDs in Iran. The quality is identical to CDs and you can download them over the internet. Not the same, but you get the best quality (as with CDs) while financially supporting Josh as well. Could be an option, if getting the CDs is out of the question.

What Torben said! I doubt I could easily get them to you in Iran, but you can get the FLACs from the store if you want. The MP3s are also encoded with high quality settings as well (I don't hear a difference, for what it's worth). Thanks a million for your support!

Josh is right. I haven't even looked at the mp3s, so I did not even think about them. The mp3s are encoded at 320kbps. This is as good as mp3 gets and you will most definitely not hear any difference. FLACs/CDs on the other hand have the advantage that you can reencode without quality loss. Reencoding from 320kbps mp3s should absolutely be of sufficient quality, although I prefer reencoding from flacs (but that might be some kind of placebo effect ;-)).

You could also check out the OGGs on jamendo, if you prefer OGG (as I do), which are encoded at a very high quality setting as well. Although OGGs are only available there via bittorrent. As you see, there really are several high quality options for you to choose from. :-)

you expect an artist to explode out of the blocks with album 1 then you hope they can maintain a level of excellence thru following albums until they release their masterpiece then fade serenely into the past ...... not true with Josh as following the explosion the fireworks havent ended yet and his star shows no sign of fading at all as masterpiece follows masterpiece ..... if only I could work out why his albums dont sell in their millions - amazing talent.

Ive listen to quite a few of your albums, and i must say they are pretty amazing, love your voice, wish you luck for the future.

i will look forward for your up coming album and i am excited for listing it.
