They’ve barely mentioned it Angel Olsen BNM will come Monday or Tuesday. They will make us wait for the 9.5. Yeah, DIIV will likely get a 7.2-7.7 for this one which means I am ready to sell my copy before even getting it.

On the plus side you have a wealth of new tunes to sink your teeth into. I was listening to their debut this morning and it's still so good in my books. Enjoy the journey if you haven't already.

kill_taker Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 /500 clear variant. Nothing too crazy about this but have always been a sucker for clear vinyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azvd Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 The guitars are outstanding. Same feeling I got from Whirr's "Sway" when I first listened to it (which became my favorite album from that year and still some of my favorites). Clear influence / revision of pure shoegazing. tetsuodaironman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 I think this may be their shoegaziest effort to date, but it’s gonna’ take a few more listens to see if it can dethrone Tennis System for my favorite album of that genre, this year. Definitely not disappointed after one spin. tetsuodaironman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam10647 Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Sounds a lot like Nothing to me, really digging it. Ended up picking up the Rough Trade edition. Thanks for talking it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for talking it up It sounds like if Nothing were stronger songwriters. I like the grungier sound which has a purpose in the sound of this record. The distortion and low tones actually make me empathize with Cole's destructive nature and addiction. As soon as Horsehead started I was like...shit!

holyvacantsholyhell Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Yeah this is quality. Shoegaze bands are a dime a dozen these days and nothing else of theirs has grabbed me enough to come back.. but this. This is cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is cool. exactly this^^ i liked their earlier albums somewhat but i thought i'd have a hard time getting into this given how ubiquitous bad shoegaze/post-punk is these days. this album is a step above/beyond in so many ways tho. gonna have to buy a copy soon.

YouTwo Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I really liked the clean reverby washy guitars on the first 2 album. But this album.... Oh this is good! Shoegaze goodness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drds89 Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Vocals for about 5 seconds sounded like Nothing, but then evaporated (fine with that) Definitely hear the TW influence on a 2 or 3 tracks. I'm enjoying the heavier direction as well. First 2 album are nice 'driving/road trip' listens. Still like Oshin > ITIA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
