Didn't pure noise say they would never release a black record? 

Imagine a splatter maniac who subscribed to patreon just to receive a black copy. Might not even recognise the disc.

They did but PNR said they would do it if the band asked for it. Considering it's the band's Patreon I think it's safe to assume it was the band's request.

Seems like they took more mature approach instrumentally, I like when they use full chords opposed to octave chords and Tom Delonge picky guitar riffs 😅

 

I'll probably grab a retail copy closer to release. Kudos to Pure Noise for only charging $25 for a new LP in 2023, that is a super rare occurrence these days.

I like-but-dont-love the single.  Definitely still grabbing a preorder though.  (i'm part of the Patreon but haven't seen a post or link to that exclusive, hopefully i can snag one of those.)

I'm glad they aren't doing cheesy Modern Baseball-esque pop punk guitar leads anymore, but this record is following suit with the modern "vibe" music trend where everything needs to be sonically chill enough to play at the background of a party filled with faux mullets and dangly TikTok earrings. I was hoping the majority of the record would be more similar to the Haunted single, but this is the same direction Graduating Life went with their final LP. I'll take this sound over the hyper oversaturated synthetic nightmare bands like The National have moved into, but it's becoming a bit derivative.

The lyrics on this album are really good though, the writing is definitely more grown-up compared to the last LP. I'm hopeful it'll click with me, but right now it feels like I'm going out of my way to listen to this record.

Bummed I missed the PN variants. Waiting for Zia to post the indie. Up at Bullmoose but I’m too lazy to research if they’re still anti-worker.

they are not - and they are actually employee owned now - https://www.mainebiz.biz/article/bull-moose-becomes-employee-owned

Oh yeah, forgot about that. Honestly still like Zia more now though. Have exclusives that aren’t marked up like BV/HardTimes/Newburry, closer to my house so ships faster.
