Guest Appearances[edit]

In the list of guest appearances, it should say what band (if any) the singers are from. Those names of the guests by themselves are meaningless to most people, unless you're an avid fan of the particular band and happen to know the singer by name.

Agreed. I'd even suggest incorporating the guest appearance info into the track listing so it's more streamlined. Also, Trever Keith's name is misspelled in the liner notes as Trevor Keith. I added a note pointing this out, but it was reverted. I personally thought it was noteworthy, but if someone could point me to a Wiki policy that says otherwise, I'd be happy to leave it be.

The band names have been added next to the guest appearances, while the guests themselves don't need to be mentioned through the track listing, due to clutter and the fact that they plainly belong under Personnel. As for the typo, it does not provide any encyclopedic knowledge to the article if mentioned and is fairly irrelevant. The correct name is on the Wiki, that's all that should matter.

Ermm who does the backing vocals in "An Insult to The Dead"? he sounds a bit like Patrick Stump...

The vocals on "An Insult to the Dead" belong to one of the band members. Yes, it does sound a lot like Mr. Stump, but the booklet says nothing of it. Machu505 (talk) 15:16, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is most likely Coby Linder, as he provided backing vocals throughout the album. —Vanishdoom (talk) 03:10, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I cleaned up the guest appearances info to put them in-line with the tracklisting using the new(ish) tracklist template. The vocalists have their own column in the tracklists while guest musicians are listed as a "note" after the track title. I also excluded band names from the tracklists to avoid clutter by linking directly to the musician by name or by linking to their most well-known band where the musician does not have their own page. Personally, I think this looks much better and is more informative than the previous state of the page, but if anyone has any other feedback, I'm willing to listen.

Songs[edit]

So, where did the other song titles come from? Citations please. Nineinchsin 01:49, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Reception[edit]

I think we should re-word "the album was recieved fairly well" in some way if we are basing how it was recieved off metacritic. Since it has a 79% on Metacritic which is "generally positive reviews", it is only 3% away from 82% which qualifys has universal acclaim. So I would say the album was received very well. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nineinchsin (talkcontribs) 18:03, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
