Talk:We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank

message: Where did the album art come from?  I looked for an official article that said they released the album art and found none...not to mention the fact that it says nothing about copyrights on the image page and for all other album covers it does...did someone just randomly upload a picture of album art THEY did?
:Someone tried to add the picture to the article here, but didn't do it right, so I uploaded it and put it on the page --Surachit 22:43, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: You're probably right, I removed it for now, it did look cool though --Surachit 04:55, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Art

message: Leaked today (15th Feb). Should information on this be posted on the page itself? I'm not sure of the general consensus as to details on leaking information, last time I saw it on an album an edit war later proceeded. AllynJ 23:21, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Fine with me; it's discriminating to withhold factual leak information. Pomte 02:47, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

message: This info has been unsourced for months. No one is citing a source, so I'm removing it. Arnesh 05:34, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've been talking with a Mouse community for a short while and it was there that the information originated.  I believe a few of the members listened to it on the radio at the time.  However, I couldn't find any information available on the radio's website so I too think it's best to leave the information out. —— Old american century 17:07, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Dashboard world premiered on KNDD", etc. 

message: Does anybody else think we should shorten the credits?  I mean, the producer is listed previously in the article, band members can be found at the Modest Mouse page, and most the rest are things like who played the shaker on a track or who helped clap to another.  Perhaps leave a little credit information and link to the rest offsite? ——Old american century 17:10, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Credits... Too Long?

message: Perhaps it should be mentioned somewhere that the song 'spitting venom' contains lyrics from a previous modest mouse song called White Lies, Yellow Teeth; which was a bonus track on Good News for People Who Love Bad News.
:Eh.  Isaac has a tendency of reusing a lot of his favorite lines.  Like in "3 Inch Horses, Two-Faced Monsters" and "I Came As A Rat" (and even Beesting, sort of) with "I don't know but I've been told you never die and you'll never grow old"; and Tundra/Desert and then Trucker's Atlas with the "I don't feel and it feels great/fine" thing.  If I were you, I'd probably only include it if Spitting Venom got its own page. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.127.127.85 (talk) 20:17, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Trivia

message: In keeping with Isaac's fondness for Virginia Woolf, We Were Dead.. might be taken from Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway: "a doomed race, chained to a sinking ship." (p.66 of the Oxford World's Classics edition.) 
Of course, it could be complete coincidence. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Pnavid (talk • contribs) 21:16, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Not worth mentioning unless you can back this up with a source -- otherwise, it's original material.  Personally, I think it's a coincidence. 68.204.237.94 07:09, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
