Jimmy Eat World - Surviving (October 18, 2019) Album • Page 64

They played I Will Go by Jim Adkins as my local café in England. Very unexpected.

 

555 sounds banging. Think this is lining up to be one of my fav albums by them.

 

was kinda hoping my record would ship in time to arrive by friday but no luck yet sadly. I just want to wear my hoodie around on release day lol

 

Did you get the blue zip-up hoodie with the preorder?

 

yes!

 

Is it as nice as it looks online? I have been going back and forth on buying it.

 

it hasn't come yet :( i was just saying that I hope it comes friday (although i doubt it will lol)

I'll update in here when it arrives with a softness report

 

I might get this but I'll wait to hear if it's worth the purchase first!

 

Release date is too close to be letting this fall off the first page, people.

 

I wish I hadn't already heard 6 and a half of the 10 songs in one form or another. It has dampened my excitement just a little bit. Not because the songs aren't good, just because I know there won't be as many surprises as there would have been if I had held off. But at least I've enjoyed the slow drip of new sounds over the last month so that's something.

 

where are you all hearing these songs? did this leak?

 

Wow, I'm surprised that the album hasn't leaked already

 

They played 7 tracks at their Phoenix show.

 

gotcha

 

Stuff doesn't tend to leak these days. If you look at the list of albums coming this Friday on kingdom-leaks, only a very small percentage have actually leaked as of now

 

everything leaks eventually just usuallt not until release week, this will probably be around tomorrow night or thursday morning

 

"everything leaks eventually" = "everything goes on sale eventually" or "everyone receives their preorders eventually"

 

well, sure - doesnt change the fact that it'll still be out there before most people would normally have access to it

 

NINE (blink-182) was the latest leak that I can remember and it happened at least a week before the release

 

Wouldn't be surprised if we get an exclusive album stream on Billboard or another media outlet tomorrow or Thursday.

 

I can’t think of the last time I saw an album stream like that.

this thing will be “out there” in 48 hours

 

The Early November just streamed Lilac on Billboard like, two weeks ago. A day before its release.

 

Pre-release streams are largely dead and it's bizarre. Seems so recent that everything was streaming a week ahead of release. NPR used to have 4-6 streams every Thursday morning. I think they've had about that many in total since July.

 

I would imagine that it's not as popular since streams through music services impact the charts now. They'd rather have those streams count toward sales these days.

 

Yeah, I'm sure that's the reason, but for a lot of the smaller artists, it's not a one-to-one thing. A lot of those NPR streams for 3-4 years there were up-and-coming country or Americana folks, who definitely got more attention for the high-profile stream placement than they were ever going to get being just another album showing up on Spotify on release day.
