I didn’t like it at first, but it really grew up me. The album came as shock because I initially didn’t like the departure from the Burials sound.
“With the end of a year that has been, at best, challenging for all, we have news that we hope may bring you some joy. Very soon, new songs shall be yours. Before the year’s end, our 11th album will follow. We could not be more happy with our latest work and hope you will feel the same. Thank you for joining us upon this next journey. We are thrilled to take it and honored to have you at our side. Afireinside.net” The “Before the year’s end, our 11th album will follow” thing sounds odd. Almost like an EP or something now and then an album at some point later on. Who knows.
I think it means we'll get a single in the near future, but that they're still not settled on a release date for the album.
Loved Burials and Blood Album in different ways, but the production on Blood left a lot to be desired.
