Gumbo72203 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 New song is okay... I have a feeling I'll like it more in time. I dig the bridge with the speed-picked guitar line. Habit is wayyyy more my thing, though. Love that song to death. I see you guys talk about Nothing all the time, I don't know their stuff. Where should I start?

Love that song to death. to me, each song is very similar to the next. from album 1 to before this one. but they're slowly morphing. I think you liked Habit because of classic gates sound. this new one, even if meh to the naked ear, is what I've been wanting as a fan.

Eliminator Jr. Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 @Gumbo72203 They released a debut EP, a split with Whirr and two studio albums (with the second one coming out this Friday). They evolve their sound, but there's not much of a departure, so I'd say just start anywhere, the discography isn't huge. It's shoegazy, angsty, grungy indie rock/post-punk.

joneboon Posted May 29, 2016 Author Share Posted May 29, 2016 (edited) listened to it fully now don't know how I feel about the album yet, the overal tone is kind of depressing (sure sure: emo). It has its catchy moments, though i dont see myself singing out loud like with bloom&breathe anyway hope the vinyl arrives soon Update: Im feeling more confident about the album now, hope you will like it as well!

Snaggle Von Swift Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 One full listen through and it definitely didn't grab me like Bloom & Breathe did. It's good, just not as good (to me) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highfives Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Man, it's definitely not Bloom & Breathe, but it's great on the first pass! Totally subdued, a little more "pop" focused (shorter songs, more straightforward). I could hear Shiver on the radio for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE_James_Champ Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 After listening to a higher quality version of this, I can honestly say that this album is perfection. It's very subtle in it's approach, and it is MOST CERTAINLY not Bloom & Breathe, but my god, these guys are amazing. There are so many perfect moments.

andables Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 a lot more polished and more mellow than their previous stuff. I get all the same feels I got the first few times I listened to the Owel self-titled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get all the same feels I got the first few times I listened to the Owel self-titled. Seriously took the words out of my mouth. Definitely got Owel vibes here. Especially on "Penny". I am actually surprised how much I've loved this first time through. Usually more subdued/lush sounding albums don't hit me that much, but I was real impressed with this first time through. Obviously, I won't be able to fully gauge how I feel until I let it settle after several listens, but I'm already really stoked to listen again. And damn does Kevin's voice impress on "Fade". At times that didn't even sound like him. Very polished vocals there. andables 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abovetheearth Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 I immediately thought Owel as well. andables 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrewest Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Man, "Eyes" & "Shiver" back to back are so so good. And "House & Home" coming right out of those two is perfect. The flow of this album and the different styles at work here are so impressive thus far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
