Actually, only one of the EP songs is on their upcoming album, and it's a demo version at that.

Darn it. I was hoping "If It Wasn't For You" would be on the CD. That's one of the boldest proclamations POD has made since signing with a secular label. Oh well, hopefully it will be "Ya Mama". That song is downright cool.

Yeah, I know. I was disappointed when I heard the song for myself, seeing as I have no way of getting the EP.

I believe "Ya Mama" was re-worked and renamed (don't know what they renamed it to). "Teachers" was re-worked as well, but kept the working title.

Why can't you get the EP?

Yeah, "Ya Mama" sounds like a return to the old-school sound with the heavy sound and the rapping. I especially love the live version of "Boom". That was a killer song to put on there.

They only pressed 40,000 copies, and I haven't the cash to buy a copy, should I be lucky enough to find one.

Bummer. That stinks. If you were to get it, you would love it, I assure you. If they use the song "Ya Mama" on the new CD, that would rock. That songs sounds kinda like a return to their old-school days(Brown days).

Wow. I actually found four copies of the EP at Walmart of all places.

My mom bought it for me, but I don't get it until Christmas.

You'll like it. As for the new CD, it appears they will be going old-school again, with a lot of reggae influence. The rapping is back. Plus, I read in an interview they even used some seven-string guitars to make it sound extremely heavy. It's gonna be the heaviest POD CD yet.

By the way, in case anyone hasn't heard it, they have a new song called "Goodbye For Now" on their purevolume site. It reminds me a bit of "Youth of the Nation" in that it's a slower song than their usual stuff.

I just found out that "Teachers" and "If It Wasn't For You" will be on the new album. This is flat-out cool.

It is. Plus the fact that they have Matisyahu, a Hasidic Jew reggae singer and possibly Jonathan Davis from Korn singing on the CD makes it even better.

Jonathan Davis was confirmed to not be on the album a while back.

I've heard Matisyahu sing. He's terrible. And unfortunately, he's on one of the new CD's better songs. I just hope he didn't ruin the final product.

Wher'd you see that?

I knew that "Teachers" would be on there, but all I've heard is that "If It Wasn't For You" didn't make the final cut.
