youmightbewrong Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I don't hate it. I don't love it. I genuinely need to listen to it some more. I'm glad that we can discuss this like mature adults, unlike those crazy kids over at AP.net.

jhulud Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Listening to the album stream makes me feel as if though this "band" is trying to mix up Radiohead with Brand New and using some prog chords. And trying too hard while at it. ewestp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stokd Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Shipping for only the LP was $12.60 to Canada. Edit: Which is more than reasonable. I ended up caving for the tier 1 package...something like $39 shipping to Canada. I bit it because I was a few drinks deep. So far having listened to the album a couple times now though I really enjoy it, it's a little over the top in Baby Shakes and Bestial and sounds like a strung out version of The Matches, but overall the songs are pretty well written instrumentally and production is great. Love the drum layering/panning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zacooper Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 just listened to the whole thing. The sound of this album isn't what I would normally listen too but I was very surprised because I actually found myself enjoying it. Not sure if I enjoy it enough to keep my order for the Tier 1 package. However, it was a nice background music/spending a night in album. I actually like the vocals weirdly enough and I'm not sure why, just something different than the whiney pop-punk I've been listening to on repeat the last 10 years I guess. blanchardoswald 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tokimedo Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 it just seems ridiculous that there are two discussions of the very same going on right now. this thread is for the pre-order, which i'm pretty sure has been eaten up by anyone who was going to bite. id suggest just merging the two together, and putting it in the vinyl section since theres a PO now.

I think there have been a few other non-whiney-pop-punk albums that have come out in the last ten years that might've helped you diversify your listening experience. But sure, hop on this... way to take that giant leap outside of your comfort zone! KIDZ / LOLZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggest making a 3rd thread to discuss and determine whether or not to merge the two threads. ewestp and dmplly 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danaisalright Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I dug Piano Wire. My wife LOVED Baby Shakes. Bestial is probably the best track on the album. The drum sounds are killer. There's definitely a lot of filler though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blahdiblah Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Baby Shakes was definitely a "WTF is this shit?" moment at first... but it wore off very quickly... I really like it doesn't sound like much else out there. I honestly don't see the Isaac Brock comparison IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
