It seems relatively quiet seeing that the band is gonna be recording so soon. We should start hyping things up... around these forums, and other places to on the internet. Maybe we could even leave our computers and TELL people about the new album!
All silliness aside, I am excited to know God's going to speak through yet one more BTA album. How can we get things a little more lit up around here?

This is a great idea. We'd love to have any assistance we could get from you guys. We believe our music in general, and this upcoming album in particular, is powerful in a way that fulfills a listener and that God uses it to accomplish His purposes in many lives.
Let's get some suggestions going and turn this thread into a think-tank for how to get the word out about BTA's fourth album.
Any ideas? If you guys need materials and resources for an idea, feel free to state them and I'll see what I can get in your hands.

A simple, yet nice looking image would be awesome. Something about BTA's fourth album, that can be posted all around the net. Facebook, prepare to hear about BTA via status updates.
Anybody good with photoshop?

The studio videos for the last album were very effective. Kept me on the edge of my seat.

Release a single that gets played constantly on Modern Rock Radio (TM) constantly for months before the CD comes out.
You can even make it one of those songs that sounds nothing like the rest of your work and gets a bunch of non-metalheads to buy your album thinking that all your songs sound like that. Worked for a bunch of bands in the 80s anyway.

Webisodes were awesome do them again!
Also do another cover of a old Hymn. A Mighty Fortress is Our God would probably be the choice of many, since it is so powerful.
A music video would be nice as well.

The webisode thing was really good actually. I was on the edge of my seat, so to speak.
Heck, I wound up buying two copies of Dichotomy after it all... haha.

I really like the idea of the webisodes again! I loved and anticipated watching those. Plus, those videos had a lot of views on youtube. I like the promo idea too. I remember you guys sent stickers/posters/etc. because I was on the promo list. Ummmm I tell my friends about Becoming The Archetype all the time here at my college.

Ya come to think of it, I remember getting the promo stuff and spreading it around as well. Great idea.

I agree with imbosse. The stickers and the posters were a wonderful idea, it'd be even cooler if you'd send out even more of them to people so we can post them everywhere. I live on a university campus, so it would be really easy to get the posters put up everywhere.

I too live on a campus, so I could put posters up everywhere. In studio footage is good as well.

I think wearing my bta shirt will be enough advertising from me, I've already had a few people comment on it.

i really hope they do make another music video. i heard off of one of Seth's tweets that they're going to be recording in three weeks and that the album should be out in February or March next year
