I think I’m going to uphold my tradition of not listening to the actual tracks, especially so far in advance of a release date (which we don’t even have yet).  I do like to go into the new records 95% blind, I think that’s the most fun and rewarding.  Way too many horror stories from people binging bootlegs for months and then feeling underwhelmed that there’s “not enough new material” when the album drops, or that the songs and their production just don’t “feel the same”.  (Which, I mean… yeah.)
I was able to whet my appetite with some very promising clips from the new songs last night, and that’s more than enough to keep new Godspeed atop my list of most-anticipated music.  To each their own though.

I listened to the first new track on there and my hype went through the roof. Gonna hold off on the other ones now. I’m really looking forward to this one. 

2 new tracks debuted tonight.  Lines up with a Belgian article that recently mentioned a new album in September.  The video clips I heard were glorious… but I also say this as someone who’s really happy with their last album, and isn’t even remotely tired of them covering the same ground they do so well.
Bits of the percussion and flow at a few parts were giving me major DMST vibes.  Which is a good thing.

It’s also /5,000.  Even if that’s worldwide distribution, that’s not limited enough to make me sweat or consider lining up with scalpers.

I know the last album rocked the boat pretty hard for a lot of folks, but they haven’t missed in my books.  Really excited to hear whatever they’re cooking up.  George has allegedly said that their is still more “metal” (traditional Deafheaven) songs up their sleeve, so a flip to something more aggressive than Infinite Granite wouldn’t surprise me at all.

What’s wrong with her mouth?

great idea, thanks!

I went big-brain and found it on the Shop App.  It’s like $7-8 more than PV but if you have Shop Cash built up, you can whittle the price down.  I was able to checkout with a copy effortlessly.

Thanks, I’m in.

but as Justin said it’s not adding.

Hardly a Kacey fan but as an outsider peeking in...
– Last album kinda' blew.
– New PO with no album art in sight.
– New PO with no details of a variant.
– New PO without a release date.
– $15 shipping.
Trying to lower the bar even further for what constitutes a preorder, huh?

I’ll take your word on that.  My half-minute of sampling was cursory at best and there’s no way I’m going to do a side-by-side comparison, but I trust that take.
Someone @ me when those vocals go full Challenger Deep.

You’re disappointed because you can’t hear the vocals?  Am I interpreting that right?  Asking because the vocals are 100% the reason I can’t stomach this band.  Actually enjoy some of the mathy songwriting and curveballs, but not enough to get over those vox.  Maybe this new one is worth sampling…
