mmhmm Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 As I said in the SMLXL thread, these new variants have fairly small pressing numbers so act accordingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surface_Noise Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Jumped all over the new album and Collapsible Lung. Pretty bummed about all the new variants cause they seem nicer than the older ones. Oh well, just happy to have all album releases so far on wax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexH. Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Huh. I was sort of expecting that they'd be going more in the bland youth-group-retreat-core/late-era Newsboys/modern rock sound that Switchfoot transitioned to awhile back, and there's some of that for sure, but this is actually pretty good. Bummin' is an obvious highlight, but there's a lot of good stuff on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chhholly123 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 The two songs they released early are the worst on the album (and still not bad). 'Man' is an early favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpazzyMcGee Posted July 15, 2016 Author Share Posted July 15, 2016 Lots of great tracks here, love the style changes in a few of the songs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFP Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 I got a shipping notice earlier today. I noticed it is shipping from Ohio this time and not from Tennessee where most SMLXL releases ship from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Combatchuckaa's joke above I thought I'd double check and yep I'm mistaken, this is still shipping from Tennessee, there is something else on my que coming from Ohio. Also, after listening to this album I feel like the album cover photo fits the music. The album sounds like if they have the groove of FANSD but the subject matter of Collapsible Lung.

CaptainAmerricka Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Got mine in the mail today. I was super stoked but I'm halfway through and have experienced two songs that won't play through. They just loop. I was on reddit not paying full attention and thought to myself "this song is real repetitive" before I realized. =P Anyone dealt with Smlxl on this kind of stuff before? I plan to email them and see if I can get a replacement, I'm just curious to know how they are about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It loops, I pick up the needle drop it again, it loops again in a different spot. The whole song is ruined. But to answer your question, as long as the whole batch isn't bad, SMLXL is good about sending a replacement. --I'm continuing to listen to the album right now.

I moved it further into the song and still had the problem. But I also had issue about halfway through the last track on B-side "Man." I'll contact them about it later. Thanks!
