Emery - Eve (November 9, 2018) Album • Page 23

for those who havn't heard the record, they released the song "shame" today. probably one of the best songs on there.

 

It’s weird that they are still releasing singles when the album is out there in several ways.

- backers have got it
- pre-orders have got it
- they promoted the leak

But I suppose it all helps! This has definitely been a unique release schedule. I wonder if it has been planned or whether they’re making it up as they go.

 

I know the band does surprisingly well from preorders. I think a majority of their fans don't know how to download a leak from kingdom leaks or anything like that. People want the album they are buying it to get it now. The backers already supported but thats usually only like 1000 of their most loyal fans. This band has bigger reach than i realized with over 200k fb likes. They try to keep content coming peoples way so people keep seeing it and get curious about the record. They also highly encourage their fans to give them good itunes reviews, i have no idea how that helps but their album is rated 5 stars on there.

 

The bridge to Shame is my favorite part of the album.

 

you're blaming all my waywardness on cigarettes and booze, but i can't walk a straight line without a drink or two.

 

I think I can say that this album has the bands best lyrics.

 

Yes, I definitely love the level of grassroots support that they have and how they’ve made all these elements work for them - even if they are unconventional. The BC podcast must work in their favour too. I really am thrilled for them that 1. they make so much from the funding and 2. they do so well from pre-orders.

 

I legit think the BC podcast is largely responsible for how successful they still are. It’s a big part of why I’m still a fan, and it also informs hugely where they’re coming from on their last two albums, particularly this one.

 

Holy eff the question is a master piece

 

I don’t listen to break it down or BC nearly as much as I used to but I was happy to see it seem to give their career a second wind. Definitely one of the most engaging bands out there and it’s a shame they’re not bigger regardless of genre. Then again they seem to be happy doing things their way so good on them.

 

pretty crazy you can get You Were Never Alone on vinyl for 10 bucks

 

I’ve been enjoying we do what we want more lately. Not sure why

 

I almost want to try and cancel me order of this. Like, no communication from them, and I’ve tried to reach out through various avenues.

No proof of my order apart from the charge to my bank account.

 

Tweet them

 

That’s an avenue I’ve yet to trek.

 

Hey Kevin, I work for BC/Emery and can help you get this sorted out. Shoot me your contact info and I'll make sure it's forwarded on and addressed! And sorry for the trouble.

 

I’ll get back to you later today! Thanks!

 

I wouldn’t have ever guessed this, but this is an easy aoty contender for me.

That’s not to say I didn’t expect to love an Emery album, this just transcended my expectations in a few undeniable ways.

Absolutely love this thing.

 

I have exactly the same sentiment.

 

Yes! It’s a masterpiece. Amazing record

 

does anyone in here like the Matt and Toby record from last year? I'm loving it

 

I never checked it out, but heard it was significantly better than their first effort.

 

The first eight tracks are really solid on this record but then it just goes downhill for me.

 

Streets of Gold and Name Your God are easily my favorite tracks off this record. It's different and just very well done.

Those two tracks alone make my backing worth it

 

given the fact that a standard LP these days is 10 or 11 tracks, this seems fair lol
