Ian mentioned something to me in private about the frightened rabbit stuff. I think he could benefit from a public statement but I do get the sense he regrets some of the things he wrote. And I’m not saying you shouldn’t still be upset, he didn’t say anything publically and you just have my word to go on so I totally get it if you are still frustrated by him. I’m just writing this to relay my personal experience with him to others. Not looking to get into a debate about this at all.
Honestly between this and the new Delta Sleep coming out on the same day and the new Death Cab the following week, August is going to be another great month of releases!
Cohen also wrote that shitty Get Hurt review attacking Brian too. I don’t care what he’s said in private, he’s consistently done shit like this.
Listened and watched the video for the new song for the first time this morning in bed. Halfway through my wife turned to me and said "is this Coldplay?" I think she had a point. The vocals for the first half of that track really were similar to Chris Martin and the music for that section has a Coldplay vibe to it. Very interesting. (Obviously it sounds nothing like Coldplay later in the song). And for the record, I loved the song.
Caught these dudes during the Circa tour with Hail The Sun a few months ago. Connor drank a whole bottle of honey on stage. That dude must have diabetes. Looking forward to the new album!
finally preordered the bone white variant... after reading that article I really wanted to financially support this record ha
