Big Thief - Two Hands (Fall 2019) Album • Page 7

Halfway through my second listen. It's amazing, as expected. Feels like what most would have expected the follow up to Capacity. "Not" is still my favorite as of now, but the guitar work on the title track is insane.

I'm so curious to see what kind of setlist they put together for the fall tour now that they've basically doubled the size of their discography. Honestly wouldn't mind them only pulling from this and UFOF and then maybe throwing in Shark Smile/Mythological Beauty/something from Masterpiece in the encore.

 

Honestly wouldn’t be surprised if the setlist was mostly new songs like the last time I saw them. Will be amazing regardless.

 

Playing Colbert tomorrow night, I think

 

I don’t understand how the band releases two albums in one year and Adrienne releases one JUST over a year ago and not only are they all excellent but they don’t even sound alike.

 

Think I'll be waiting for release day on this one, but excited to see such a positive response in here

 

undoubtedly 4 for 4

 

“Mary” is an incredible song, but I still think “Shark Smile” is their quintessential tune and the one that should have made the P4K list.

 

replaced by the mystery of the stars

 

Album is fantastic, I can already tell I'm going to be listening to this repeatedly for weeks like I have been with UFOF. Definitely contrasts the other, and I could see what they've been saying in interviews and press about it now.

 

I think I prefer UFOF but this is still really great. Getting some neutral milk hotel vibes.

 

I think choosing between this and UFOF would probably kill me

 

anything other than a vinyl rip out there?

 

this is...so fucking good.

They found you in the morning
The blood was on your shoulders
They found you at the corner
Your head was doubled over
And the blood of the man who killed my mother with his hands
Is in me
It's in me
In my veins

the way she sings those last three lines. ahhh

 

Holding out for Friday. Super excited.

 

The opening of shoulders is the best riff of the year

 

Has this leaked outside the vinyl rip?

 

uhh I'm seeing a CD rip on RED as of 5 hours ago

 

Does anyone know of any other b-side/bonus/non-album tracks? This is what I’ve got:

Dandelion
Masterpiece (solo)
Mother
Breathe in my Lungs

 

Wolf, y’all.... like, fuck

 

godddd I am unbelievably excited for this to be in my ears tomorrow.

edit - if you listen to only one song from this list, I would choose "Black Flowers"

 

How did I not know about ANY of that. Will be looking for all that later today.

 

Tight, this is so much more than I thought. Thanks for putting it together, definitely will dig in soon. I completely forgot about that cassette release.

 

fun fact this song was played before Masterpiece was even recorded. possibly already well known but I only recently found out

 

whoaaa that's wild

also, thank you so much for that list
