My Deer Leap package included the Jet Set Sail 7 inch as well as The Obsessives My Pale Red Dot randomly for free, just a heads up. This album is incredible, I really held off on listening till i received the LP and then felt a little burnt that it took so long from when it was expected, so opening this up and seeing the incredible packaging and variant, I felt totally rewarded. In a way it arrived at the perfect time, I cant say enough on how good this album is. As I was scouring the net for reviews I stumbled upon this cool review and interview with their lead guitarist. Gives some cool perspective to the band as a whole and the making of this record. Hope everyone digs as much as I am!

What record store?

unless im missing something, ra patera references volcano with the "open up the window and the let the morning light in" part as well as the synth line from that section a bit sped up. now though, volcano includes the descending guitar lines at the end of it, the same that ra patera outros with. so its like a retroactive reference?

really loving the new versions, i agree with doman that i prefer them. so sick that volcano dance now references ra patera!

wow this came out of nowhere and is so exciting. also so sick to see so many JF fans in here. remember that old site, jftab.com? haha

Heres how mine turned out. Loving the artwork and gatefold

Would love some consistency in the mixing of the split songs for sure.

well i pulled the trigger. hate the shipping cost, but i love this band

theyre up for real

Likely holding out for the EU variant, anyone able to post the artwork? I wanna see

Got a good feeling about this

that soundcloud embed is nice

went with the RFC /300. has the band released a statement yet?

so wait who played bass?

so was the surprise the buttons? they r sick

Whats on the spotify taaaape?

nah, i just quietly enjoyed it myself. def didnt wanna ruin the surprise of this record!

ive been lucky to sit with this record for about a month (really sorry bearchuck), and its really cool to read more of the process behind the songs, the manipulation of the sonic spaces. also about how they were able to do the shoot and how it was free and then to see it in the teaser/goodness pt 1 video was a nice way to encapsulate the vibe of the artwork. to me, this record takes the most captivating riffs and structures from Home, really expanding on the compositions and yet retaining that heart skip moment the combination of the chords and christians vocals give you. i get a very americana vibe on some of the tracks, a lot of the "verse" passages evoke that same feel good beat that hasnt really shown up before in this scene. highlights for me would be Two Deliverances, Opening Mail, and End of Reel. id definitely say this album warrants repeat listens, it has so many little pockets of melodies and grooves and flourishes that you find yourself thinking of at the most random times. im really happy that everything in the universe aligned so far as to allow this album to be created and released in such a way that it will reach a lot of people.

Could not read that procrastinate image on my phone. Link to a zoomable version?
