This album is infinitely better on vinyl.  Sounds amazing.

How come no one forced me to listen to Glacier before today?  Sweet mother of all that’s heavy ‘No Light Ever’ is my shit.  That closer is a friggin behemoth.

I won’t stand here & tolerate this pre-PAIN TS slander.  Technicolour Blind is far and away their best imo & honestly one of my favorite shoegaze albums ever.  Gimme the dreamier TS over the more raw sound from Lovesick any day.  Don’t get me wrong I love Pain & like Lovesick but TB is near perfect to me.

Finished making my AOTY list yesterday. Here's my top 15:
 
1. Abigail Williams - Walk Beyond the Dark
2. Thornhill - The Dark Pool
3. Old Solar - See
4. Olam - I Will Guide Thy Hand
5. Elle - (Ellipsis)
6. Labirinto - Divino Afflante Spiritu
7. Mireplaner - A Mountain of Saola Hooves
8. Seeyouspacecowboy - The Correlation Between...
9. Void of Vision - Hyperdaze
10. Hundreds of AU - Mission Priorities on Launch
11. Cult of Luna - A Dawn to Fear
12. The Drowned God - I'll Always Be the Same
13. White Ward - Love Exchange Failure
14. Varials - In Darkness
15. Cranial - Alternate Endings

Thom Yorke - ANIMA
Dead Swords - Ender
Cursive - Get Fixed
Billie Eilish - WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO 
Old Solar - SEE
The Appleseed Cast - The Fleeting Light of Impermanence
Russian Circles - Blood Year
OWEL - Paris
Earth - Full Upon Her Burning Lips
The Faint - Egowerk
 
Also jamming a few select songs from The HU's The Gereg on repeat. Also, the top set of the year. 
 

“Ride” by Ride
 
lyrics...
”RIDE...”

cheery ass post-rock more like post-pop lmao get those twinkly ass fuckboy guitars out of here holy shit total snooz[zzzzz]e when the fuck did this band get so boring?  remember when these guys were good smh they’re just out of ideas oh well back to this cult of luna record i guess

Imagine thinking this song sucks lmao

Finally got around to uploading a video from the Cabot Theater
 
 
 

A lifetime of off key MW emo dudes sets you up to not be turned off by bad vocals I guess. Shit’s tight.
 
EDIT:
just read the Ian Cohen p4k review and it’s pretty good. He really does GET why the two different vocal styles work and vocalized it in a way that I wouldn’t have. 
All I know is my first play though i was for sure thinking to myself “wait who TF is this guy?” when nasaly dude jumps in after digging the first vocalist (that second song slaps btw). But when he comes back in on You’re Gonna Hate it all makes sense.

For sure.  When “Let it Die” started up right after “Do You Feel Nothing?” it was jarring but I was like “Damn that worked real well in the flow of this album”.  Then the big comedown of “Entertainment” after “You’re Gonna Hate...” sealed the deal.
 
Also, “Strain” is probably my favorite.  I wanna stew in these dark moody beefy riffs for days.

I’d say this song most reminds me of ‘Regret’.  Start here then check out the rest of this EP if you dig.  EP 2 isn’t as heavy, but still real good.
 
 

Consider renaming your playlist Shoegays if you haven’t already.

So I ordered the earplugs, and they didn't do a damn thing.
 
I suspect it was because I forgot  them on the table at home.
Show was amazing though, and I survived.

I think this band should be on everyone’s radar.  I loved their EP from a couple years ago & this song is even better.  Very mathy-gaze.

Checking in to say that by this point I think I may be gay for that Lacing record.

This thread is 5 and a half years old lmao.  Finna have Dan @ ITC just lathe cut everything /50 & call it a day 😂 

For anyone that may be interested and doesn't do the streaming thing, I have an extra download that came with the record:

Thanks for the recommendation on this. I love the Dead Swords album, so that definitely got my attention.

Heart That Fed is rarely played live, that’s awesome you caught it. I’d love them to play that one more, so underrated. Asa, Arcs and Raven all in one set is pretty amazing. What was the date of that show?

Jesus fuck.  When/where was that?  I thought I saw the only Heart that Fed because it's only got one entry on Setlist.FM which was my first show. 

You guys can have those other pressings, I’ll be ready to pounce on the mylene sheathe versions.  Yep, any day now...

Totally.  I’ve listened to it several times over and each time there’s a distinct that BASS tho moment.

Shit this is such a perfect description of this.  Song bangs real hard.  
 
My Yip concerns have melted away.  Bass thumps nicely & nothing sounds buried in the mix.
