this band is really good. I wish drum production was better on this and the last album though.

 

Wow, didn't know this was coming out, pretty excited for it now. Last album was pretty good, and this song is amazing.

Band is too good for PNR.

 

These guys are so great. Loving the new song.

 

Interesting you feel that way. I was listening to their whole discography not long ago and one of the things that stood out to me is how much better the drums sound on the album than the EPs.

 

fuck pure noise
Still will listen ugh

 

Thought the last one was a bit dull and overlong, but this song is pretty good and I like the shorter tracklist. Maybe I'll give it a chance.

 

They always try to drag me into grabbing a bundle just for the slipmat. Luckily, I like the last one they did better.

 

Dunno how so many people seem to forget about this band or forget how good they are. These guys are relentlessly fantastic, have never had a disappointing release, and put so much heart into their music. Really excited for this.

 

the pure noise thing really turns people off, even if they're likely the least involved band on the whole label

 

stoked on this release.....the /300 variant is kinda blah though, I'm going for the orange crush.

 

This just became my most anticipated for the year. Bloom and Breathe is still so good.

 

Sucks that it's on Pure Noise. I love these guys and they're wonderful humans, so it sucks that they are stuck with the drivel on that label. I can't in good conscience give that label any of my money, so I'll probably be downloading the album, or an advance if I ever get one, and then just handing the band cash at a show directly. Cut out the middle man. Bummed not to pick up the vinyl, but I have enough/too many records already as it is.

 

If this album takes the best 4 songs from B&B and expand on that sound, rather than the harsher stuff, this will be probably be a GOAT album to my ears. I like this first song more than a lot of MovMu's s/t. I'm just a fan of the more technical aspect this band brings, and the drummer is one of my favorites to come out in recent years.

 

i love this single so much. i love this band. i hate this label

 

I wish there was a way I could support these guys directly, living in Ireland - or at least in a way that cuts out PNR, because fuck that label. A number of bands I like remain associated with them and I have no idea why.

 

Whoa, cool. Totally missed this being announced

 

Really like the 2 songs released so far, can't wait. Get to see Thrice, Gates, and La Dispute together in a month, so excited.

 

I really like them, but every time I'm listening to them I find myself hoping for MovMou to release a new album... still a bit excited by this

 

Habit is cool. Gotta check out Empty Canvas now I guess.

Looking forward to this album but fuck this label. Maybe I'll buy this from them directly on their tour with Thrice if I like the album enough. Trying to save my money on vinyl/shirts for albums I love and I can't say this band has put out anything I love yet, but they certainly have the potential too. The first album grows a little tiresome for me when I listen to it even though it's pretty good overall, so hopefully the shorter tracklist here really benefits this album.

 

born dead and low especially are two of my favorite songs of the past couple years. really hoping something on this album hits that level

 

Coooool, glad to hear this is coming. I enjoyed their first record a ton

 

Born Dead I'd one of my favorites from this album along with Not My Blood and At Last Da Loneliest Of Them

 

I love ALTLOT but got sick of NMB pretty quickly. Played it a lot when the single came out
