Makes me wonder. If they had 10 songs they set aside for SoE after finishing SoI, are those 10 songs still on the new album? How many are? Is the new album just stuff they've been doing over the past couple years as opposed to the stuff they had while working on SoE?

.....Well i guess they did have another album ready???, but as time went on decided to reinvent it!...again ....and again.
