Well, I got a hold of the leak. I put it on my iPod. Then I did the craziest thing. I took it off my iPod. The JP album I ordered should arrive in the next few days. I feel it'll be more rewarding to wait for the album to arrive at my door then listen to the leak.
I checked out a bit of Louisiana and Simple Peal. Simple Peal is like the Simple Peal 1 track that they put on a broadcast. I think I'll alter its placement. I want Louisiana to stay as a closing track. I think I'll put Simple Peal in between Moon in Water and Louisiana. Perhaps, instead, I think for my music library in iTunes and for my iPod, I'll have Barking in my playlists section, as well as the alternate album of Barking (CD 2), and the JP version of Barking, with Simple Peal and YDS ARV. I'll have Barking with the 9 tracks UW intended, and a version of Barking with 11 tracks (the JP bonus track and the iTunes bonus track).
I wish that Are You Rockstar? made it onto Barking; at the least in the form of an iTunes bonus track.
Edit: I was tempted to just put it on my iPod again and listen to it tonight anyway.
But I did an order tracking of the album, and it left Tokyo on September 1st and made it to JFK airport on September 1st. Woot! That is in NY, only a few states away from me. This should come in the mail in less than 24 hours. I'll wait for it to arrive at my home. This is wicked sweet.
Then I'll have the box set coming in the middle of the month.
