mewithoutYou - [untitled] e.p. & [Untitled] LP (2018) Album • Page 191

I would travel a crazy distance to see an all B/S show

 

would you travel through time?

 

aren't i doing that already?

 

touche

 

I often wonder if I’ve already died.

 

I'm so out of the loop, just now saw that they're touring w/ Thrice next year.

Don't listen to Thrice as much as I used to, but still dig 'em, & haven't seen 'em since the Major/Minor tour, so maybe I'll go? Used to be really into their live show. Plus, I haven't had a chance to see mwY since [untitled] came out. Only downside is, I'm not really that big a Vheissu fan; would prefer a Beggars tour, or Artist. At least that includes "Image of the Invisible" & "Like Moths to Flame." (Also "The Earth Will Shake" & "Of Dust & Nations," of course, though I'd imagine those are still live staples regardless?) Plus, getting some of their newer songs in an encore could be fun.

Isn't Drug Church that hardcore band w/ the guy from Self Defense Family? That could also be fun.

 

drug church's cheer is one of the best records that came out last year

 

Thrice are fantastic live

 

something new I want to try out: So I wanna try out something new. With [Untitled] being a year old next week, where do you see yourself placing it? Would you rank it as your favorite mwY album?

Feel free to post your thoughts in the poll thread.

[Revisited]Weekly Poll: Favorite mewithoutYou Album • forum.chorus.fm

 

I never feel particularly pulled by this album. Would probably place it as my #4 or #5 album from them.

 

I like this album a lot, but I'm way more likely to reach for CFUTF, BS, or even PH

 

I love both but I go to the EP before I go the LP.

 

you're all wrong!!!!! lol

 

i listened to it yesterday and was devastated by it all over again

 

I really love this album but it is hard to listen to the whole thing at once. By the time I get to New Wine, New Skins I feel so heavy. Tortoises, dormouse, and Julia are some of my favorite songs they have ever made though, and I do think this album is their best.

 

My goodness it does not feel like it’s been a year. I mean, that goes for like every release but especially this one

 

I listened to [Untitled] for the first time while out of town and eating In-N-Out (which I believe I broadcasted here) so that nice association cuts down on the heaviness a bit. But as far as my favorite albums go, I put this in the same category as Sufjan’s “Carrie & Lowell” and Julien Baker’s “Sprained Ankle” as one of those uniquely devastating records that’s too beautiful for me to not go back to on a regular basis. And it does leave me hopeful by the end. Hopeful and broken, but hopeful nonetheless.

 

b,s will always be #1 but this is easy #2 for me

 

I feel like almost every new mwy album is just a better version of the previous, with the exception of this one in that this feels pretty distinct from the rest f their material to me. I usually listen to this or pale horses when I crave mwy

 

theres a million different ways this band can lean stylistically, they can be very open ended, and I hope the next album is a whole lot different than untitled

 

This. I feel like mwY has the ability to diversify their core sound more than any other band I know.

 

This album was easily the most engaged I’ve been with a new release from them. PH obviously grew to be amazing, but after I finished untitled i immediately wanted to press play again

 

Untitled is easily their best in my eyes.

 

All of this

 

I'm all over the map with them. I can play Untitled, PH, Ten Stories, or B/S whenever. Think I reach for B/S the most though, followed by PH since it's so great to run to.
