    Believe there has been two former members that have commented on the re record so far. The other was the “massacred my boy meme” but this one was a little more. and Craig is deleted and blocking any negative comments on his AI generated post about it lol

    I still only use my library of mp3's and plexamp for anywhere else (car/phone/etc.) and also... free.

    I still keep my iTunes library and my streaming client separate because I'm still scared from that one time a million years ago that Apple was deleting files through match At home I only use my iTunes library and don't steam anything. I use Spotify in the car and at work

    this hits so much harder than the original. vocals are way better, production quality much higher in general. my biggest complaint is that they removed a lot of layers on the vocals and some of the harmonies. the layers and harmonies made the album stand out to me years ago, and it’s what made bone palace feel a lot more hollow vocally.

    So a few weeks ago someone (account now deleted) shared a dropbox on reddit. Looks like it was someone that wrote some drugs songs with Craig and I guess maybe even toured with at some point (looks like named Josh). Dropbox Link

    This makes me somewhat hopeful that original members are getting streaming revenue from this, even if they didn't perform on it.

    I think so too. Definitely sounds like Krummet... drums sounds like DGD. Throw in a little raspy Craig. DGD/Tilian era like sound.

    Hey it isn’t a picture disc. It’s a clear vinyl so sound is good!

    Someone should really tell them “thank you.” Otherwise there could be dire consequences.

    A 2007 list without I'm Not There is silly. I guess they don't watch non-English movies. People talk about Michael Clayton much more today than they do Juno.

    I'm not a huge fan of Dustin's current vocal style, but also he can do whatever he wants. Maybe it's easier on his vocal cords.

    I agree with your assessment of his delivery. And I don't give a S about what you said to him on social media lol.

  22. jciswhatis liked Chase Tremaine's post in the thread Band Thrice.

    I'm not going to pretend that I put a lot of thought into how I worded the comment; if anything, the "you gotta cool it" phrasing was more of an attempt to be casual, not to sound smug. I will gladly concede that my comment could've been more kindly worded, but whether it's from me or from someone else, I do genuinely want this sentiment to reach Dustin's ears. As a fan and as a music critic, I really think his recent overuse of vocal slides is becoming a crutch that keeps him from writing better melodies. It doesn't ruin the new song for me by any means - in fact, I like it a whole lot - but I do think it could be stronger without them (especially the second verse, such as his delivery on the word "maze").

    This is good, but more importantly it's weird and off kilter for a lead single. Reminds me of Foxing putting out Speak with the Dead and Greyhound as lead singles. Own the grandiosity.
