mcpherson123 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I really like the cover and the return to form of the first four albums lettering style for the title and band logo. The short clip of the first track is promising. I like where its headed. I like them with a unifying concept for the songs. Music feels sort of like Crack The Skye and Blood Mountain just from the clip. Looking forward to hearing the full song and full album eventually. I will likely actually pre-order this its reasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm in for a pre-order if Warner doesn't price these crazy high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they do I hope they make it worth it at least, lithographs and quadruple gatefold did not justify the price. The link to their current tour said that for every 2 tickets got you a physical copy of the album, I hope that includes a vinyl option but I'm not hopeful. The new single rips, can't wait.

radiatorhums Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 I'm in the 'Crack the Skye' group here. Don't dislike the last two albums, I also can't imagine going out of my way to listen to them either. I'll listen to this when it comes out, but the excitement I used to have for this band isn't there anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they started the colored reissues of all the Warner records, they said there was gonna be a boxset containing all of them, it was due out last December, but I guess it never happened.

I was more referring to the fact that supposive isn't a word, though I also hadn't heard much about that boxset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anomynous Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 They need to do a 2x45 boxset for all of them, or at least for all the ones who had that deluxe configuration elnombre91 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's package this with sharp colored pencils that if we shrink wrap them with the record will also almost surly warp it!" I also just question who their target demo is with that bonus.

As a bigger fan of colored vinyl I was really hoping this album was gonna get a colored release, but I guess I can deal with the semi coloring book page.

anchorlessbodies Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Not sure, is it some limited store exclusive version or will be the standard retail one as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 I'm really hoping for a standard retail edition also. I'll say that I approve of the color choice on this and I hope it will be available without the extra crap for a cheaper price soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's safe to say this is getting a wider release. Emperor of Sand [VINYL] https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01MYCILAW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_GMWIybQ2Z2XKH Looking forward to this! New single is pretty good, and I've enjoyed every album these guys have put out since day one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
