In a continued effort to have the best "looking" record collections, you guys have simultaneously insulted both the band and the graphic designer behind the album. How much of your internet posturing and art critiquing is gonna matter when your 4 copies are sitting on your shelf, not being played, not even being looked at, while you're back on here in a few more months getting up in arms over some other release. Priorities, guys. The new song sounds rad.

No Media Mail option on the CD+LP package

I somehow completely missed this. How can I get a copy now?

Also get Palmless Prayer / A Mass Murder Refrain. One of my favorite records ever.

They played one of the new, heavy songs when I saw them back in April, right after they had finished the writing sessions for these records. That thing was so killer. Like a Russian Circles or "Oceanic" ISIS. It was really surprising, but really incredible. Ordered without hesitation.

Consumer goods are not investments. They are meant for consumption. You can learn this in your first hour of any business class. Anything marketed as "limited" or "collectable" is already on it's way to being worthless. The real collectibles are the things nobody thinks to keep around in mint condition.

Solace is one of my favorite records in the genre. And I will welcome this new one with gratefully open arms and ears. Hope they can do some US touring behind it. I was lucky enough to catch them opening for ISIS on the final tour. What a fuckin show that was.

Man - you should've been at Blue Nile in Harrisonburg in October 2010. Gifts From Enola, If These Trees Could Talk, Beware of Safety, & Constants. Sheathfest!

In that case, can we all agree to avoid City of Echoes?

Everybody should start with Austrailasia
