I agree that there's something special about that video that would be hard to recreate on a record, but as someone who's been a massive fan ever since seeing you open up for MO back in 2008...I can't thank you enough for sharing this with us. Thanks for all the music and killer shows over the years. Can't wait for more in the future. Much love!
Not as AGO but I'll be in Europe come February playing lead guitar for Matt Maeson. Check the dates and then DM me and we can say hey.
Never heard of Matt Maeson before, but checking it while typing this and I'm enjoying it. Might check out the show in Antwerp if my kids allow me the night off!
Is Side B meant to be more of the sound from Kodak and your S/T (2023) or will it be more in line with Side A? Been a huge fan since day one! I had you sign my original pressing of The Season back in 2019 in Santa Cruz and I remember you asking if I was sure since I could flip it for a decent amount online haha. So stoked you’re still making music and will continue to support my dude!
@nathanhussey can you remind your friends in Manchester Orchestra that they can go as heavy as you do in Enough About God on their next one? thanks. Deep down i know they still have it in them
I'm not sure I ever knew that - time to bust that record out and figure out the misprint. But for real, just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for all your amazing music and hard work over the years. You're easily one of my favorite songwriters of this generation and I've connected with every album you've released, and this surprise drop really came at a perfect time. We crossed paths a few times back in the olden days ('08-'11) and it's kind of crazy to think about how long ago that was, but how everyone could tell that you guys were making something special. Absolutely wish you all the best, truly hope you're able to keep doing what you're doing, and fingers crossed for any kind of tour announcement in the Southeast.
I just looked up the lyrics on genius…there was an attempt. Haha Enough About God is my song of the year. Side A is my AOTY, probably to nobody’s surprise.
Albums out in the last few months of the year are always tough to judge on the AOTY list. I guess you’ve had it a lot longer than us though.
Was hoping for the small chance of a KC date, but looks like will be trying to make the trip down to Dallas to see again- glad the run came together!
Damn, I didn't know how many of y'all were from KS. I'm from Wichita but go to shows in Lawrence and KC all the time. I'll try to remember to let you guys know if I'll be up there and maybe we can see a show together. I was really bummed I missed AGO in KC the other year when they opened for As Cities Burn. That would've been such a sick show since Come Now Sleep by ACB is one of my favorite albums of all time. I just couldn't swing it with work though.
Oh shoot. I must have missed that show too! Back in the day I would just look at their tour dates and see if they wanted to stay with me or needed anything. Those guys and O’Brother! The best dudes.
