mappingtheyears Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 anyone know if downloads of the singles are included with the Barsuk preorder? I haven't received any. and they repressed the full lengths from the boxset, but not Chords or the EPs. wonder if they will do that, or try to keep those more rare. I've been getting emails with downloads for each song as they've been released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, I've only listened to it once though. Sometimes it takes a few listens for a song to grow on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eliminator Jr. Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Soo surprised at how much I like all these new songs. Didn't even care enough to listen to their last two albums, but I just recently got back in touch with first-love-in-high-school-breaking-my-heart-how-would-i-ever-have-coped-without 'Transatlanticism' and I love it more than I ever did. Regardless, these tracks are goood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpazzyMcGee Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I'm actually glad the first 4 singles have been the first 4 songs on the album. I like the flow so far, good side A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadDonut Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 I'm so stoked for this album. The 4 songs that have been released are excellent and in my opinion a great direction for the band. This is definitely my most anticipated album for the first quarter of the year. SpazzyMcGee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retep Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 So according to Zeitgeist Management the gold and white IS exclusive to their webstore, they just posted on some peoples question through the DCFC FB post. Screw it though, I'm not paying $8 for shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh, good to know they're trying to mislead people. Either that or they were grossly misled themselves. I guess we'll see in 2 weeks.

cmax64 Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Finally bit the bullet and ordered the other day. Not sure if I'm sold on Little Wanderer yet - although I think in the context of the album I'll become more of a fan of it. Also - I ordered from the webstore, not knowing there were cheaper options for shipping?! Oh well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Potter Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 DCFC web store won't load for me right now but I don't recall the page saying the color was "exclusive." Usually if the variant is exclusive they will highlight it to motivate you to buy from them. I also recall Atl-J's new album last year having the "web store only exclusive colors" which was not the case. I picked up a copy months later at a local record store and it was on colored vinyl. (Both of them are signed to Atlantic Records) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rabbitvinyl Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Surprisingly good album on first listen! It's very relaxed and doesn't have nearly as much interesting guitar lines as previous Death Cab stuff but all the songs flow very well as a complete work. They also experiment further with electronic instruments, which is a welcome change. Overall the electronic sounds are lovely but I find they doesn't work well in some instances; most notably the synth in Everything's A Ceiling. It just sounds overly kitschy and 80s to me. It gets a bit better as the song moves forward but at the beginning it sticks out like a sore thumb. I really like You've Haunted Me All My Life. Builds up nicely and sounds like The National with more discernible lyrics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

backpackoat Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Really love this. I'm surprised to see it getting so much hate on other sites. I do agree it's the best since Plans, and I ADORED Narrow Stairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snarebum Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 100% as well on best album since Plans. So stoked for this. Can't wait to finally have this in my hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpazzyMcGee Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 definitely will be a grower for me, doesn't catch me the way Narrow Stairs did. edit: Hold No Guns could be a McCartney song, the "no not a one" line made me think of that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
