Big Thief - Double Infinity (September 5, 2025) • Page 9

Setlist last night looked incredible.

 

Also saw a clip of the new song they opened with and man. Sounded great.

 

Agree with the great setlist sentiment, this looks fantastic!!

I need “Beautiful World” now.

 

second show is tonight, hopefully someone records full songs!

 

Pretty sure someone’s already said this in one of their threads, but this band needs a taper community.

 

Finally got to this - I liked it but definitely didn't leave it feeling nearly as wowed as I have on past records. I could see it being a grower. For me the production, while objectively solid and in line with their past albums, felt a bit oddly subdued in a way that lessened the impact of the album. But I don't feel like this is my final opinion on the album by a longshot, there's a lot here lyrically that was hitting me and I'm excited to let this one slowly blossom.

 

Buck says the next album is already done.

From van life in L.A. to Hollywood Bowl: Big Thief's steady climb continues

 

here’s hoping Terrifying is on it

 

Didn’t they say that after Dragon too lol and well

Just don’t think the UFOF / Two Hands move will ever happen again

 

It honestly feels like it’s absolutely going to happen again.

 

Dragon was a double album and this album is 9 songs with many more having been recorded before being whittled down, so I can see this being a UFOF/Two Hands case where the next album comes out fairly soon.

 

In 2022, there was one interview where Buck suggested they were going to release the rest of the Dragon sessions but it was translated from Japanese and may not be exactly what he meant. Around the same time, James did an interview where he said maybe one day they'll "release the archives" which made it sound like there was no immediate plan for them. Other than those comments, I think everything else was just speculation and hope from fans that there would be more.

This time around they did a whole separate recording session, similar to UFOF/Two Hands. I don't think this will include the 6-7 Double Infinity bsides.

The exact quote is:

I don't think there's any question that another album is coming. But there is also a new Buck album that's ready to go so we'll see which one they choose to release first. A new Buck tour was announced today so I'm guessing Buck first and BT second
