marc32137 Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 My tracking is estimating Monday, but it just got to Jacksonville, which usually means it gets delivered the next day. I'll be really happy if it comes tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatsNJazz Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Does BSM send out download codes on release day? I checked the website and I didn't see anything. I want to hear this asap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to hear this asap I got my Balance and Composure Light We Made (Oct 7 release date) download link at 7:43pm Eastern time Oct 6th. So you could be getting one soon if that's their standard practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like with the single, it blew my expectations out of the water; if you liked "No Halo" the album is definitely up to par. Leagues better than Joy Departed. This pleases me to hear. I haven't bothered with anything else this band has done, but if the whole album lives up to NH, I'm on board. The last leak I saw yesterday was ~140kb/S and 23 MB. Even at 320, that's probably only a 70 MB download. Pretty short listen, yeah? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still havent got a download from bsm, if someone could hook me up that would be awesome. I listened to this on bandcamp this morning while getting ready for work and was really digging it, but I want to really sit down and take it in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Delonge's UFO Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Is anyone else kind of underwhelmed by this? Only listened through once, but first impressions is I like Joy, Departed way better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shitty Rambo Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 I had very low expectations for this album, but I'm 6 songs in and think this is quite possibly the best Sorority Noise material to exist. The last LP/EP were mediocre at best, so far these songs have been heavy and gloomy and rad as hell. Now I need a vinyl copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should finish the album. 2nd half is much weaker but still overall better than joy, departed. competitive with forgettable, i'd say (which in my opinion is much better than joy, departed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually liked it just as much as the first half, especially Second Letter From St. Julien. Cool how it ties to/references When I See You (Timberwolf) which is one of very few good songs on Joy, Departed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually don't mind Where Are you? either, it just kind of annoys me on a 10-track 31-minute "full-length" having basically one really drawn out, weak song (leave the fan on) and an acoustic bedroom recording on the end. felt like it ended the album on a rather weak note. its weird, i feel like at least one of the last two tracks on every modern baseball album is the same way. But to clarify, No Halo and A Better Sun are by far my two favorite tracks right now, which altogether makes the first half much stronger than the second half to me Edited March 17, 2017 by rogeoa8 Shitty Rambo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dapeebs Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Didn't really plan on listening to this, but I read a review on it saying it's the power pop version of Home, Like NoPlace is There, but with guitar solos. I know there's no way it's as good as that album, but that comparison has me intrigued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Sioux Falls take a more "serious" rather than playful tone than these bands, but that doesn't equate to better. I admit I am a huge Modern Baseball fan, I don't think many albums have come out in recent years that are better than Sports, but yes, Rot Forever was something special for sure. And I would absolutely agree Rot Forever is better than anything Sorority Noise and certainly Joyce Manor have put out, so yeah i guess i pretty much agree.

marc32137 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Got my tricolor today and they sent a new download link with the missing song so I'm happy about that. Gonna listen in my car on the way to a friend's house shortly and spin my copy tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
