TheWindBlower Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Living vicariously through you all. I'm gonna try to hold out until the vinyl arrives and I've got the lyric sheet in front of me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FangsAnalSatan Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Been checking all day to see this album shipped. I can finally rest easy. One thing about this album, I wish the vocals were just mixed a tad higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suchashorttime Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 yes, yes, yes. hey tre, is the artwork in the .pdf for the regular LP, or is that what's going to be expanded into the deluxe? the art is rad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suchashorttime Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 also - just got through the first listen. this is a dense record. it seems very expansive in influence. there are songs i hear a lot of 90s-esque movements, songs i get a big unwed sailor-esque vibe from, songs with a hint of a catchy emocore hook. it's very... listenable? i'm gonna take shit for that. it moves from beginning to end with a lot of different sounds and feelings. i think i said the same thing when comparing PTSBBAM and TTBOADH, but this record seems far more thought through than their previous material (and i thought PTSBBAM was very well thought through). i think my favorite track might be non fiction. we'll see where that stands in a day or two.

I can hear this as well. I don't who Unwed Sailor are, but I do know what you mean about the different styles and sounds going through the record. It keeps it fresh in that they're not keeping a typical sound. The last three songs are the rippers for me on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last three songs are the rippers for me on this. unwed sailor were (are?) an instrumental band on burnt toast. very movement-oriented and melodic. i recommend The Faithful Anchor to anyone who likes music. it's a beautiful record.

Kanellos Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Nonfiction is the "condolences" of this album, and if I do say so my self is their greatest song. It hit me in the guts. And the track with Jon from Balance is good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
