wasn't planning to. i already pre-ordered it. but are you going to listen to the leaked album when it does circulate the internet, or are you waiting for the real thing to come out before you take a first listen? i don't know which one i will do because i am beyond excited to hear, yet i feel sort of disrespectful? in a way if i listen to the leaked version before i receive the actual album. i don't know. what do you think

Yes. I will absolutely listen to a leaked copy as soon as I can find one and I will not feel any guilt or disrespect for it.
My CD will be delivered on May 24th and I’m anticipating those who pre-ordered will be given a chance to stream it online a few days before the release date, just as Barsuk provided for Curse Your Branches. If it leaks before then it will almost certainly be the final product, so why wait? Bazan won’t be making changes.
Bottom line: if I have a chance to hear new music from my favorite artist, I’m going to take the first chance I get.
