I'm into it. Good to have them back.

 

Considering how prolific they were for the first decade of their career, they've really taken their time between the last 2 albums. 4 years and now 5. Maybe this will grow on me, it's a decent song, but it's not blown me away after a few listens.

 

I remember reading years ago before they released Woodstock, they had a whole album finished and ended up scrapping it, before going back to the studio to record Woodstock.

Dig the song though, glad they're back with new stuff.

 

It was a double album called Doomin + Gloomin, a few of the songs made it to Woodstock but the majority remains unreleased

 

Diggin it.

 

Was any specific reason given for why they shelved it? I love that title.

 

Double album Doomin and Gloomin or something. One of the "scrapped" demos made it as a sample on the Flatbush Zombie's last full length. Amazing song.

 

I figured they cashed it in after having that breakout success.

 

That's the one

 

I'm seeing them in April (fingers crossed) and I don't know if they'll go the "best of" route for their setlist or if we'll have a better taste of the new album.
