Here we go : http://www.pledgemusic.com/projects/ours
I just pledged for the new album signed. What do you chose?
On pledgemusic they say that black card holders will get an invitation to the release party. Seems like I will have a new travelling direction :-)
There is also a short video on Youtube for the campaign :

Yup, just pledged $20 for CD. Signed things don't mean anything to me unless I have the experience to go with them, so just the CD is good enough for me. (And I will be seeing Jimmy twice next week...so I figure I can get some stuff signed there anyway, haha).
Been listening to 'Devil' for the past half-hour on repeat. Love. This. Song. The new album is going to be amazing.

I'm thinking about the signed CD but it'll be quite a bit of cash especially with it needing to be posted to the UK. Might just stick with the normal CD.

That's fun news! Anyone know if its going to be only for the person who's name is on the card or what? The reason I ask is because I have a +1 on mine for Shawn. He pretty much bought the card for me for my birthday and I can't imagine excluding him from something like this. I guess that's something that we'll have to ask when the time comes, but any thoughts on it would be welcome.

I've been spreading the word via the internets...got some people who weren't aware of the pledge campaign to give some funds.
I did the handwritten lyrics one, chose 'Worst Things Beautiful' ..that shit is gonna be awesome framed with my other OURS stuff.
They say handwritten by Jimmy, well it best be

Anyone know if they plan on doing special editions of the new CD when it comes out like what was done for The Heart? Cause I don't know whether to pledge for the signed CD now or just pledge for the download and then wait for a future deluxe edition.

Autumn
What a fucking song. 11 minutes 52 seconds of perfection.

You convinced me, Nine, and I went for the hand-written lyrics option, too. For reasons unknown, the drop-down menu only included songs from Mercy, so I had to write-in "Here Is the Light."
"Devil" is great! What's weird is that I know I love Ours big time, but I seem to forget just HOW much until I hear a new recording like "Devil" and experience the thrill of anticipation for the next album. It's the feeling of discovering the band all over again.
Wow--just two or three days into this, and Ours has reached 30% of its goal! This is really gonna happen!! It really is this easy! Wish we could have gone the pledge route long ago!
As for Autumn, could someone clarify for us non-Facebookers: is Autumn available for download? If not, this had better make the cut on the next album!

Yeah, I just messaged their site about the dropdown menu thing, I'll let you know what they say.
When they first launched it they didn't have all the other songs in the description. I'd rather have 'Fallen Souls' now that it's an option
I'm proud of the guys for being up to 30% in just a few days, that's awesome.
I wish I could afford the private Jimmy/OURS performance, you also get to pick the set list, that's bad ass.

Thanks, Nine.
Yeah . . . so we have about 59 days to win the lottery!
Alternatively, anyone here need a kidney?

To be clear, if I pledge for the vinyl, I won't also get the CD and free song, correct? I ask because I've participated in some kickstarter projects in which each consecutive higher pledge gets you everything that comes before, plus something new.
But from how it appears here, that's not the case.

As far as I understood every pledger gets the free song and a digital download of the album when the CD is out.

Hello everyone! I just went to the Des Moines and Denver shows. Very good performances, esp. Des Moines. Anyway, I am sorry if this has already been answered, but does anyone know the name of the song where Jimmy keeps repeating: "Get him outta here"?
