Damn, lol. I cucked up.

But the moral is at least they didn’t mishandle a good album.

It sounds like if Nothing were stronger songwriters. I like the grungier sound which has a purpose in the sound of this record. The distortion and low tones actually make me empathize with Cole's destructive nature and addiction. As soon as Horsehead started I was like...shit!

I think this may be their shoegaziest effort to date, but it’s gonna’ take a few more listens to see if it can dethrone Tennis System for my favorite album of that genre, this year.  Definitely not disappointed after one spin.

The guitars are outstanding. Same feeling I got from Whirr's "Sway" when I first listened to it (which became my favorite album from that year and still some of my favorites). 
Clear influence / revision of pure shoegazing.

whos bitching about 3 variants? 
Simply stating the colors of all 3 are underwhelming isn’t saying I’m pissed there’s 3-4 variants,  or it exists. 

Standard black, shop seemed to be legit via reddit.

Fuckers.

Please stop buying their music, guys.

Thanks for the heads up. I’ll pick it up eventually. Deluxe version with all the bells and whistles sounded enticing. 
 
Have had an OG copy of Calculating for years, and even that has me contemplating buying in haha

Remastered at Abbey Road = me gonna flip my Ba Da Bing, then.

I’ve owned two Ba Da Bing copies and they were noisy throughout. Given that this record is spatial and has so many quiet sections, it felt like a cash grab to me. Sounded compressed and tbh the CD sounds better. Also, this one was remastered at Abbey Road, apparently. My friend, are you okay? I was of a sober state of mind on my vinyl listens...

On the opposite side of the fence, I feel like everything from DSU forward has been an eclectic array of gem-filled albums. I love all four of his last releases because although he has a certain distinguishable voice/sound, he definitely packs each album with seemingly disconnected styles that end up sounding really great together. I think I love each song on Beach Music, for example. Hell, I like most songs on all of his albums. This new one took a few listens, but when it hits it HITS.

This is a really good record. I was gonna pick up a copy on black but the more I listen to it the more I want the box set. They play Seattle next month so I’m hoping to talk one of my musical eclectic friends into going.

I played it just before House of Sugar was released, along with DSU, for the first time. I've listened to Trick twice so far, but not much really clicked. 
 
Maybe it'll click more eventually. Despite what I said, I may actually play it again. I played Rocket a lot more than you'd think, because I kept hoping it would turn into something more cohesive, and also I couldn't get enough of Proud, Bobby, and Judge.

Have your heard Trick? That’s a great album. 

This arrived today.....bent in fucking half.  🤬
