Matthew Thiessen and the Earthquakes - Wind Up Bird (August 31, 2018) Album • Page 3

I had no idea this was coming out already, or that Man of Stone was available.

It’s great.

 

My buddy just sent me a picture of his CD. It exists.

 

Hitting play...

 

I love it.

 

Was gonna list standout tracks but there’s already too many.

 

!!!!!!!

 

Comparisons to any prior relient k material?

 

Mine is scheduled to arrive Tuesday? Lame....

 

It’s a pretty new thing (in a great way) but I definitely think it’s most reminicent of The Nashville Tennis EP.

 

This is the best news I could hear for this release. That's a seriously underrated batch of songs from RK.

 

I want it.

 

So this is just gonna be on Spotify when I wake up tomorrow morning then? Despite no promo campaign whatsoever (that I’ve seen, anyway)?

 

Darren King produced the entire album and played drums, I am sooooooooooooo x-citedddddd

 

Matt seriously might be my favorite lyricist.

 

Maybe Matt makes real good RK residuals and doesn't need to promote his stuff haha

 

I wonder who will play drums on tour?

 

I may be wrong, but hasn’t he started doing songwriting for pop songs in the background? Or at least did a few a couple of years back?

 

Yo this bangs and I'm only two tracks in

 

@SpyKi you get in on this yet?

 

I love this after my first listen. Crazy how it simultaneously sounds like his most low key yet most ambitious project so far. Can’t wrap my head around the complexity of all these songs, but they’re so approachable too. Truly unique and surprising. I’m psyched to spin it a bunch tomorrow.

 

I'm really liking this too, definitely a lot of layers to unpack after I get through the first listen. These songs would totally fit in with any of the stuff he released for the My Other Band or Revolution compilation albums. Also reminds me of the acoustic songs on the Creepy EP, especially the original Jefferson Aeroplane demo.

 

Played this twice at work and it's wonderful! The female vocalist adds so much to this, great addition. Didn't realize King played drums on this too.. that's awesome! Gonna have to pay attention to the drums more next listen

 

ROBIN HOOD AND LITTLE JOHN ARE ROCKIN' IN THE FOREST.
