Kurazz Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 PO: Bandcamp This album will be the first release since the death of the bands frontman Chris Torpy. The Quietest Place On Earth still has its place as one of my favorite post-rock/metal albums of all time. For any first time listeners out there, I would highly recommend "A Gallant Gentleman" off their new release and go from there.

SunsetDramaKing17 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 This sounds great. Would def love to see a US release for this. Sad history with this band too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I 'd saved my AUS money for this vs. the Caspian Waking Season, like I needed a 5th copy of it, though it is purdy. Sold my AUS version of TWDY. Still $32 before shipping for the non-black variant on 2xLP is a little over the top. But I said the same thing on sleepmakeswaves prices, and I guess the Aussie homies pony up for their great bands. They certainly have quite a few in the genre! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is just the prices in Aus and it totally blows. Due to much higher minimum wages, raw materials and creating things out of those raw materials are much great. It costs much more to press the vinyl and much more to print the sleeves. Hence why 7" are never under $10AUD and 12" are never under $20AUD. Most 2xLP's cost around $40-50 AUD here.

RadDonut Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Can't wait to hear this whole thing. Usually music that is attributed to a friend/loved one that has passed away hits the spot for me. Especially instrumental music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drds89 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 upon further listening this is a no. Brother, next time you have 17 min, you gotta check track 3 again! I'm prob not going vinyl either but will get around to digital eventually. Sometimes these growers can push you over the top to pony up, if any are left. Wish I had their last one on vinyl.

SunsetDramaKing17 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I'm loving this record. Does anyone know of a US based buying option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurazz Posted August 7, 2015 Author Share Posted August 7, 2015 No US distribution, unfortunately. It's only available via their bandcamp. Most likely going to stay that way too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 There are parts of it that are really good, but as a whole, it's not half-a-hundred-bucks good. For me, anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
