billya Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 One listen in (almost done) and I am pretty satisfied with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewberinger Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 it's better than gospel but I also did not think gospel was that great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Saint Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 So far, I'm only underwhelmed with the closing song. They've killed it on the past two albums with their closer, and this one didn't stick out to me immediately. But this album is great, overall! I can't wait to get my copy and spin it.

It's a good song, but the wild bunch was probably the best song on gospel, what was already a terrific album goes out with an awesome bang.

jayteamanis Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 The closer's definitely underwhelming, but the entire album is just dripping with emotion, I don't think it'd make too much since to have a huge bang of an ending with most of the preceding songs being lighter and mellower. It's not what I expected, but still really good. Hobbes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elcowboyrojo Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 got my preorder with shopradiocast of the red/black swirl a while ago. I'm holding off on listening till I get the record in. Saw them live in Pontiac, Mi and the new songs sounded amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWasteOfATime Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 This is a grower. Gospel was too. I feel like I will like Gospel alot more (like top ten territory), but will learn to love this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeeMoreGlass Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Wow, three songs in and these hooks are REALLY lacking. you're nuts... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeeMoreGlass Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Holy shit...that guitar sound in Run Brother Run... I feel like I should be listening to this entire album in a cathedral or something... The Saint and youmightbewrong 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micah511 Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 So I asked Adam (keyboard player) on twitter what happened to the clip, and if it will pop up somewhere else, and his answer was "yes!" So, I guess we'll hear it eventually one way or another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejesseb Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Listening to this now. It's good but nothing is really standing out to me. Kinda forgettable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayteamanis Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I'm on my 10th or so listen-through, and damn this is good. I'm kinda hearing some Steel Train in a few tracks, especially the closer, anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewfro Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 definitely enjoying the album. now just have to decide between that red or the splatter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PostVillasBlues2K Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Seriously in love with this album. I even get hints of Death Cab at some parts like the verse on Woods. jayteamanis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest s0uthard Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Just got my 180g copy in the mail. The packaging is pretty awesome, including the stickersheet. My only complaint is the record sleeve, which has the lyrics printed on it, is snug and I had trouble getting the record out the first time. A minor gripe though and besides that I am loving that everything feels sturdy and not cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not surprising about the jacket, i remember people saying that about the 180g version of TSSF's What You Don't See. They are probably fitted for the thinner records.

Also, the digital download is not active yet. When you go to download it, there are no tracks available yet. It's annoying, but I understand that the album comes out Tuesday so I technically have it early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codeine Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Wonder what is going on with that track... maybe a 7" down the pipeline? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seamoney Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 ^There are several b-sides from the record, so maybe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micah511 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Or possibly iTunes b sides like the last record. Speaking of, I would buy a 7 inch with both of those songs just to round out my collection. Out Of Time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
