phoenixinflight Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 New song is incredible. Every thing I wanted. Really quite heavy, which caught me off guard. Gonna have to stick my 2 play only rule with singles so they albums flow doesn't get ruined haha. The write-up is fucking ridiculous, god I hate Pitchfork. People saying it sounds like Linkin Park? No.... Like some of you have been discussing, Separation also didn't really grab me at first. Slept on it for a few months, came back to it and fell in love. Aside from the first EP (which is ok), everything they've done is brilliant, but Separation (like some others have mentioned) never really goes longer than a week unplayed in my house. This album is gonna be huge, and more than likely (as expected) my AOTY. Sounds so much bigger than the split tracks, which Will did too. Just so...heavy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rfoster8 Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I can't stop listening to this song. And I want to, so as to not overplay it when the album comes out like someone else mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hipsterasfolk Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Can't listen to the stream for some odd reason :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mormur Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I'm the opposite to everyone else, I prefer the TJ split and Only Boundaries to Separation. The songs on Separation are mostly too slow/soft for me other than Quake and I Tore You Apart In My Head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwhitmuzik Posted July 24, 2013 Author Share Posted July 24, 2013 I haven't loved anything they've done other than the Braid split. But those two songs are so insanely good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickxmurphy Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Typically, I'll like a band's older or newer stuff only. But I got into these guys around the time Separation came out and sort of worked my way backwards through their discography from there. One of the main reasons I grabbed this pre-order on faith alone was because, although all a little different musically, I've enjoyed everything they've released thus far.I hope they reissue I Just Want To Be Pure on a 7" or 10" in the future.

dantheriver Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I hope they reissue I Just Want To Be Pure on a 7" or 10" in the future. As cool as that would be... the band has publicly stated that it will never happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickxmurphy Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 As cool as that would be... the band has publicly stated that it will never happen. I knew they publicly acknowledged that they're all a little embarrassed about it, but I hadn't heard that bit. Bummer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alogical Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Can't listen to the stream for some odd reason :/ nor can I, pitchfork is the only place. I tried their Tumblr but it just links to PF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRareCreature Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I'm really not connecting with or feeling the vocals nearly as much as their older work...needs more emotion/energy/aggression or something. I'm still stoked for the album. AdventureIsOutThere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr. sincere Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Sounds like a lot of the stuff you'd hear on alterna-rock radio in 2002. Not a bad thing if that's what you're into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueprintforjoy Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 i really like the new song. i enjoyed what they did on the braid split too and i think this is in-line with that. pumped to hear this whole album, i'm sure it will definitely be one of my favorites of this year.
