escapeplan Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 The fact that they skipped Under A Falling Sky isn't surprising, it's just an acoustic track mostly with some piano and some eerie electronics and stuff. The middle section is probably the most energetic and best part of the album. Eastern Leaves when Evan comes in with the whole band is just amazing. Hudson is probably the closest to the heavier Waves sound. How would you rate it against the rest of their catalogue? I really like Pneuma and Foreword. I initially liked Waves but it really didn't hold up after I had some time with it. I think the problem with that record is that they simplified their sound too much and really lost the complexity that made them awesome to listen to. Plus the post-hardcore sound really isn't suited to their strengths. Hoping this takes the place of Pneuma for my favorite album from them.

I doubt it takes Pneuma's place simply due to the dynamics of that. Eastern Leaves is fantastic but even that doesn't even get up to the heights of 8105, which is quite possibly one of my favorite songs ever. So beautiful and that 8 minutes goes by so quickly.

TheRareCreature Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Yeah, no doubt Pneuma will be hard to top Agreed but these Telegraph Sessions tracks sound amazing...I'm pretty amped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
museummouth Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I need to listen to this. At least just for Evans song Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While Pneuma is amazing, there are a good amount of interludes and ambient tracks that artificially inflate that album. I think the S/T will more than likely be my fave MovMou record once it drops TheRareCreature 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought TC/Hello merch only had white? The green variant (/275) is limited to the deluxe LP bundle. With shipping it comes out to around $40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 It's exclusive to the bundle through Hello Merch. [edit] Foiled again. By less than a second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

escapeplan Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 So this just leaked and I couldn't wait until my preorder arrived. Got to say I'm super impressed with the album. It reminds me of 90s emo mixed with Foreword. The production (especially on the vocals) is a little raw and it fits the tone so well. Go get this guys! Edit: Looks like they've sold out of the /275 green pressing on their official site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll add it to my Amazon order with Balance and Composure as I missed the good variants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwhitmuzik Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I actually think this record is starting to be a really big grower for me. I don't know, tonight (I'm also drunk so maybe not) it's really starting to hit me. We'll see, but I honestly see this becoming far more in rotation for me than I thought it'd be.
