  1. Got my green/black copy today and it’s beautiful. I couldn’t find lyrics, credits etc anywhere in the package. No insert, no infos on back cover.. I was wondering if that was intentional or what.
  2. Detailed pics of the release here: https://www.instagram.com/p/CtwskxrRGj6/?igshid=MTk0MGU0NTkxNA== it looks nice but definitely not what one expects for $65.. despite I always loved their music and this album, I’m going to pass on this one.
  3. That packaging must be something never seen before for $65.. do you know if any European store will have it?
  4. PREORDER ON 2LP/CD AT https://www.stickman-records.com/shop/elder-innate-passage/ https://beholdtheelder.bandcamp.com/album/innate-passage Innate Passage is the sixth Elder full-length. It finds the mostly-Berlin-based band in the post-pandemic era as veterans at the forefront of a league of progressive and heavy groups working in large part under their influence; a stately presence as reliably forward-thinking as they are unpredictable in sound. They are among the most important acts of their mostly-still-emerging generation. Genuine leaders in style and expressive intention. Innate Passage is further proof why. In Spring 2020, Elder released their fifth album, Omens, and with it established a claim on their most prog-leaning interpretation of sprawling heavy rock and roll. Two years later, Innate Passage builds on many similar concepts, but outdoes its predecessor on every level of performance, weight of its impact, interplay between founder Nick DiSalvo and Mike Risberg’s guitars and keys, the now-settled-in drumming of Georg Edert – who made his debut on Omens – and bassist Jack Donovan’s tonal warmth underscoring the shimmer of DiSalvo’s leads. Says DiSalvo: “This record channels the surreal world we live in from a fantastical point of view, not super-literally, and how we as humans processed that; everyone on their own passage through time and space and whatever version of reality they chose for themselves. The phrase ‘Innate Passage’ appeared to me when writing the record. Passage and transition are necessary in the human condition and this process is intrinsic to us. All the growth and introspection we underwent in the past few years totally made this apparent to me more so than any other experiences in life so far.” “Catastasis” begins Innate Passage with a pointedly bright perspective and the most complex vocal harmonies that Elder have ever produced. Alongside DiSalvo, Innate Passage features a guest singer for the first time in Behrang Alavi (Samavayo), who adds his voice to what’s already a career performance for DiSalvo as a singer; his voice is more confident, has more presence, and more reach than ever before. That is but one way in which Innate Passage steps boldly deeper into this new era for Elder. Whether it’s a shredding lead in the culmination of “Endless Return” or the willfully patient, almost meandering, build into the crescendo and fade of “Merged in Dreams/Ne Plus Ultra,” Elder are poised as never before as they execute this material. In centerpiece “Coalescence,” they offer Opeth-worthy rhythmic intricacy and piano drama offset by crunching heavy guitar and twisting leads, and in “The Purpose,” they craft a wash of melody that is engrossing without sacrificing any clarity of the individual instruments that make it. As the album ends with soft guitar in an answer to the intro of “Catastasis,” the sense of wholeness that comes through is one more aspect arguing for Elder as singularly crucial. Innate Passage is a culmination of everything they’ve done before, and that’s reason to celebrate, but more, it is that after more than 15 years, they’re still pushing forward to places where neither they nor anyone they’ve influenced have yet gone. – JJ Koczan, Sept. 2022.
  5. Release date for vinyl is April 2023. Is this a joke? DW already did that with Bloodmoon. I know that the queues for vinyl production are long nowadays and everything but I’m wondering why DW (and CC here) is the only label that put up preorders 10 months ahead of release with all the other labels still 1/2/3 months. This is embarrassing..
  6. I already got the shipping notification from relapse a couple of hours ago. Stoked.
  7. Atma (Deluxe Version) is available for streaming and download on all DSPs now, and at Relapse Records you can get the new Atma t-shirt, hoodie and pre-order the CD, cassette, and 2xLP in five variants: Custom pinwheel with splatter (135 copies) Custom three color merge with splatter (335 copies) Bone white inside of translucent gold with rainbow splatter (535 copies) Bone white (opaque) with heavy oxblood and blood red splatter (1,000 copies) LP1 oxblood / LP2 gold (5500 copies) https://store.relapse.com/item/103448
  8. First song is up (at midnight) on streaming platforms and it’s insanely good, such a crushing opener.
  9. This was accidentally posted by Brooklyn Vegan and now it’s deleted. Release date is mid 2022, I’m wondering if it’s actually going to be up for preorder soon..
  10. 5 copies of the deluxe white/gold merge are back in stock https://store.relapse.com/item/98950
  11. This was an impulsive purchase but now I realized that $36/30€ + customs fees are just too much for 3 songs. The new song/cover premiered today doesn’t help as it’s not my cup of tea.. So I’m going to cancel my order for the tri-merge w/ splatter /135 now. I thought to post about it here in case someone is interested.
  12. Tracklist: 1 Pain with an Anchor 2 The Crux 3 Sickle and Peace 4 More Than I Could Chew 5 The Beast 6 Skeleton of Splendor 7 Teardrinker 8 Pushing the Tides 9 Peace and Tranquility 10 Dagger 11 Had It All 12 Savage Lands 13 Gobblers of Dregs 14 Eyes of Serpents 15 Gigantiu
  13. It looks like the first song will be announced on Friday. https://www.instagram.com/p/CTlFOV7LtHV/?utm_medium=copy_link
