Trust me Strange is putting a lot into the promotion of this album. I can definitely speak for the Internet Marketing team and say that we go hard for every release and this one is no different. Being that it's so great though, yes there is definitely some extra juice flowing into our efforts. We realize what we've got on our hands from the top on down though and trust that. 

If Best Buy doesn't carry it then do us, yourself, and music fans a favor and DEMAND it from the store. Ask them who you have to write to make that request

AND go to Twitter and bring it to our attention. If you put the hashtag #TMTYL we'll definitely see it. You might not think it but this will definitely help the cause.

The album is also available at FYE for those who can't find it.

Two very important things regarding this album that I think that Strange Music should address.

1.  Extremely low promotion, (besides the tour)   I think that yall are sleeping on a gold mine here and should spend some money to get this shit exposed to average joe.  Many songs on this album can be played on any rock or rap station nationwide.  This might be a knee-jerk reaction to it beeing so new, but I this this is album of the year material.  Which leads me to my second point.

2.  Not a single Best Buy in the greater Houston area has, or is getting this album.  The fourth largest city in the nation and nobody knows who the fuck Mayday is.  And trust me this city is begging for a new hip-hop sound.

After spending all day with this album and a quarter, this is the best complete album I've ever heard, edging out Aquemini and Dark Side of the Moon.  The way each song flows into each other is brilliant.

Right on man, good to know that extra effort is going into this one.

I wish they would have put more albums out. This album is unreal. I had to drive a half hour north of me to get it. They only had 2 copies and I had to go ask customer service for it. I'm pretty sure he had to go in back and get it. I just checked store availability at Best Buy and the closest p[lace to me that has the album is Niles, OH.

Picked it up before taking off on my move. I love it. My only criticism is that I'm not a fan of their choruses. They seemed to be short repetitions of the same words. Loved it tho, the klusterfuk Ep was a nice surprise too. The store in eureka had only ordered 3 copies.

the whole thing definatly felt very complete as an album, and the production and lyrics were insane.

Just finished listening to the album in full, as Tech would say "It's a beautiful thing" there wasn't one song i skipped. All in all im very impressed it sounded alot better then what i had imagined and i felt it was a very complete project as a whole.

Sounds like the best release from an artist other than Tech and Lynch.

I agree. my favorites so far are badlands, death march, roaches, TMTYL, highs&lows, TNT, devil on my mind, REM, but the whole album is amazing and more than replayable. im going to wear my preorder shirt until a tech n9ne hater makes me hulk out of it k? i will just get more in strangeland =)

  I also really enjoyed the disc.Ive been listening to Lords of the Fly and Stuck on an Island the last few days to prepare for this. I downloaded it yesterday morning before work and bumped it all day. It might take a few more listens before I can objectively review it.I wouldnt say the cds perfect but Id give it at least an 8 or maybe a 9 or so.
  I cant wait for my shirt to get here.
