Well I did pre-order, and mine is still not here, so apparently doesn’t always help

Depends where you live and which store you pre-ordered from. For example, I pre-ordered mine from the US store and it will take about 2-3 weeks to get here. If I had got it from the UK one, I’d have it within 3 days.
I ordered Friday. I’m quite impressed. I have ordered merch before and it’s taken months!!!

I pre-order this album as soon as I heard it was being released! I got to listen to it all Friday and I can’t say I’m disappointed, Mike delivered as always. 
I actally thought I ordered mine from us… but the tracking is like a eu page. Didn’t actually know that you could choose 
Hmm guess I just have to be patient 
I am so happy!!!

Regarding the release of the album last friday i was having difficulties finding this album in any stores. Upon looking through best buy,target,and walmart they are only available as only online purchase and no options to have this item ordered and shipped to store for pickup. Highly disappointed that this album is unavailable for s tore purchase.
Yeah I couldn’t find it yesterday when I was browsing either 
maybe it’s a US thing 
I got mine at Newbury comics.
Gonna try to pick up my copy on Thursday. I hope I’ll find it 
After listening to the album a few times now. Here´s my review:
Also track-by-track review:
A Place to Start - Short but great opener. Only 6 points because I wouldn’t listen to it without hearing the whole album. (Mike told in one of his interview´s he thought of putting it on OML as opener…) 6/10
Over Again - Really special track, recorded before and after Hollywood Bowl show! Rough and intense lyrics! As I first heard it I had goosebumps all over. 9.5/10
Watching As I Fall - Mad Mike is what I call this one! Love the unique in comparison to the rest of the album. 8/10
Nothing Makes Sense Anymore - This song is really underrated to the rest of the songs that got released before. Great music video! In my opinion the “darkest” song on the album (maybe Mike doesn´t want so much attention to this one) 7/10
About You - One of the “weaker”. Mike’s rapping is good I like the ending but blackbears apperance is not needed and pretty weak in my opinion. 6/10
Brooding - Great instrumental. Mike always does them well every time. Same as A Place to Start… only 6 points because I wouldn’t listen to it without hearing the whole album. 6/10
Promises I Can’t Keep - I love Mike’s singing voice like he is here! Could be easily on a Linkin Park album as said above and lyrics to sing along! 9/10
Crossing a Line - The beginning of the song does not pick me up but how longer it goes the better it gets. I like this song way more live than on the album tbh! 7/10
Hold It Together - This is also on my top 3 of this album! Really catchy to sing along! I hope there´s a live debut for this one soon! 10/10
Ghosts - This song also stands out a bit from the rest. Really cute video that put a smile on my face the whole releaseday! 8/10
Make It Up As I Go - I like K.flay´s unique voice. Mike rapping good as always. Good collab not more. Yes, radio song. 7/10
Lift Off - I thought as I first heard that MGK “AND” Chino collabs here that this one would be on my top 3. But nope. Little disappointed, but still good. 7/10
I.O.U. - Mad Mike again. But I need to say I like “Watching As I Fall” more. Sorry. 7/10
Running from My Shadow - This flow is one of his best he´s ever did. Almost like his legend track “Remember the Name”. The best collab on the album in my opinion with grandson! (They should do more in future!) GUITARRRZ! 9.5/10.
World’s On Fire - Again need to say. I love his singing voice! Good song. 8.5/10
Can’t Here You Now - YES, singing and rapping! Good beats, good flow. Uplifting. Great way to end this album. 9/10
It´s a special album. Not just music more about the person Mike and his story the past year. Lyrics and the journey from dark to light. That just deserve´s 10/10.
Who would imagine after july last year that Mike would drop this one in less than a year…
I try to rate my top 3 song´s here but that still changes:
Hold It Together
Over Again
Running from My Shadow
I can´t give this an overall rating it´s to special and specific. But I would be around 8.5-9.5/10
Thank you Mike, we are all proud of you!
