Circa Survive Band • Page 41

The only song I don't really like on BSN is Strange Terrain. Always felt Get Out was a better opener.

 

Strange terrain is only weird to me because I don't feel like it sets the stage for what the rest of the album sounds like.

 

Hmm. I Felt Free and Imaginary Enemy are my probably my #2 and #3 on the album

 

Really need to get around to listening to their last 2 albums

 

Strange Terrain is totally a highlight for me on BSN. My favorite on that album will probably always be Through The Desert Alone, though.

 

Descensus is really good. Violent Waves is probably my least favorite Circa album, although "lest favorite Circa album" is definitely a relative term.

 

I agree. VW is the only one I don't come back to consistently

 

I love VW, especially the last 5 songs on it. Sometimes I honestly think it's my favorite of theirs.

 

What if this were the artwork?

 

Like it but don't love it. On the topic of artwork, on letting go's is my favorite of all time. Really like the hurricane sandy ep artwork as well.

 

the deluxe for the On Letting Go vinyl is probably my favorite.

 

On Letting Go is the best art for sure

And arguably the best titled album

 

Also my favorite overall concept for an album.

 

In The Morning is my favorite intro EVER behind Polaroids of Polar Bears

 

I don't think it's the artwork. Looks to similar to the deluxe blue sky noise

They need a green album. My guess is the next one is forest-based on baseless speculation

 

Finally came. Oh man. Putting this on ASAP

 

Nice. Definitely one of my favorite albums in my collection.

 

The vinyl sounded great. Love the 180g black but can't say I love getting off the couch every 3 songs.
First world problems

 

Agree with everything said here

 

Not at all

 

Agree that "Strange Terrain" isn't really representative of BSN - perhaps that's why it's one of my favorites? Along with "Glass Arrows," It retains a lot of the spacey melodic sensibilities of Juturna/OLG that are largely missing from the rest of the album.

 

I've never particularly cared for VW, but it's been growing on me very slowly over the last 3 years. Maybe by like 2021 I'll actually like it.

 

I'll Find A Way is one of their best songs

 

This might be too harsh, but... in hindsight now, VW almost feels like a record they put out just because it was time for a new one. At least, it feels more that way than anything else they've done. I enjoyed most of it, but nothing really stands out. The word that keeps coming to mind is "bland." It's still like a 7-7.5/10 for me, but yeah.

 

I think that's a good way to put it.

That's why I have high hopes for the new one because they atleast seem to be really taking their time with it. And the instagram previews sounded really cool...And Yip keeps getting better....and Anthony got to make a hard rock record with saosin

That seems like a good equation for an exciting circa release
