Ceres - Magic Mountain (1996-2022) • Page 2

Hot damn, let’s go

 

Tentatively excited, love this band but I really do not like the mix on these songs.

EDIT: revisiting it seems to mainly be "Want/Need" that sounded awful, the others are very different. I wonder if that is on purpose or if a bad copy was uploaded?

 

I fully expected to never get another Ceres song again after they finished touring We Are A Team, so getting a double album is insane

 

Want/Need, Humming and MAXi are older and came out months ago and have really bad production.

Judging by the 2 new songs I don't think those will be the album versions you heard. At least I hope there isn't some really uneven mix/production on this album.

 

Wait, what's wrong with the production on "Want/Need" now?

 

At least on Spotify, it sounds awfully compressed, like truly unlistenable.

 

I think that's just Spotify generally.

 

Additional insight on the 2 new songs and the record overall (4 years in the making)

 

I ain't arguing with that but this one is particularly bad! Still excited for the record!

 

I listened on bandcamp and it sounded fine to me

also damn, haven't heard this band in 7-8 years but these songs are fantastic, I've got some catching up to do

 

no reason they shouldn't be one of the biggest bands doing this kind of sound

 

sounds this way to me too no matter the source.

the other tracks sound a bit better but not great.


love all the tracks regardless though.

 

Oh noooooooo. Well, whatever. Like you said, focus on the positives!

 

I cannot wait to dive into this tonight

 

this comes out tomorrow?

 

Yep!

 

so fucking ready

 

I should take off work tomorrow so I can really drink it all in

 

so much music out over the last month. kind of exhausting lol

 

666 IS SO GOOD

Feels so nice to be hearing new music from this band. And it's great.

 

baby's got a toothacheeee

Not paying a ton of attention to the song names but there's a really good run beginning with 666

 

tomorrow we are getting new albums from ceres, balance and composure, and wild pink

what the fuuuuuuuuck

 

(and new Caribou, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Half Waif, The Bug, and Yasmin Williams)

 

And Undeath and Blood Incantation for my metal heads

 

The second half of this record from Holly Hill onwards is incredible
