parkinglot Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Forgot my headphones today so I can't listen until I get home. If it's close to as good as the first single I'll be happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrainGilliams Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Oh wow. I just preordered the deluxe green marble version of this along with a copy of Beach House's Devotion for $21.20 shipped. Crazy good deal. They were the same price before the 50% discount so it was basically buy 1 get one free. You can get the Cloud Nothings by itself shipped for $11.58. You guys better jump on this before the 50% off sale is over. Burkazoid, 2moreinches and cobannaboc 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youspinmeround Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 This isn't as bad as I thought it would be based off the singles, especially that very Weezer sounding song The vocal strain that I found to really seperate this band is all but gone. The instrumentation has really stepped up a notch and much more variety, which is probably a good thing Overall, after a listen its pretty solid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Internal World wasn't anything groundbreaking on first listen, but Modern Act was a blast. I agree that Dylan's vocals have matured and lost a lot of their grit found on AOM – if fans were listening to Cloud Nothings for that "strain" in his voice, they should definitely stick to AOM and H&NE. But on first listen I'm in agreement with your verdict of "pretty solid"; fortunately that's the same way I felt about their last few albums on first listen, and they've revealed themselves to have insane amounts of replay and reveal a whole lot more after a few revisits. I feel like LWS will be no different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 After a week with this album, more or less, I have to say that it's taken the signature "Cloud Nothings turn" that I suspected it may, following the lead of their last two albums which have truly shined and revealed more and more hooks with each revisit. Not to sound pretentious, but I strongly feel as though this record is nowhere near as shallow or cursory as a lot of first impressions are making it out to be, and definitely not for anyone who may be hoping to casually "check it out" and move onto the next 2017 release without giving it a revisit or second thought. The tracks that initially seemed "so-so" on first listen have managed to really click into place with the full context of the record, and I've had completely random lines and guitar lines from them in my head, all week. There's also a handful of instrumental breaks throughout the record that burst with energy and would make for particularly wild moments in a live show. Super happy with this one and quite eager to have pre-orders arrive. Vector53, Burkazoid and cantdance 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatsNJazz Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 I saw on instagram there are TWO distinctly different green marbled versions, one looks like a green/white smash, and the other is a regular marble. Does anybody know if the deluxe green at indie stores is different from the one available for pre order? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly really perplexed about the color choices for both – and wish they incorporated blue instead of green – but it's not the end of the world. I'm still hopelessly hooked on this record.

parkinglot Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 I can't really get into this, beyond a couple tracks. I'll give it some more time though, because I have loved everything they have done. Also, I'm visiting my friend in Berkeley and Cloud Nothing happen to be playing San Francisco while I'm there, so I might as well familiarize myself with the new songs.

spectrum Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Got mine. Sounds great. Packing left a bit to be desired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatsNJazz Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I love the lyrics and melodies, this is definitely the best Cloud Nothings record songwriting wise, but you can tell the raw energy from AOM was pulled back and replaced with a more focused approach. It's still uplifting just in a more positive and light approach, which I enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnl Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Got my copy today from Carpark and it's beat to hell. All 4 corners are bent (not dinged). And there's a 3 in split in the top middle of the jacket and printed inner sleeve. Oh yeah, the record has about a half inch crack. Was preparing for the worst when I saw a squashed package outside of my door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 That sounds terrible It hasn't been said but the mix on the US pressing is great and true to what I've gotten used to listening to the digital files. I'm sure everyone remembers how buried in the mix the guitars were on H&NE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
