I also wanted to add that the guy above is entitled to his opinion. And if he doesn't like the melodies that is okay haha
Yeah, I'll have to give it more listens and hopefully more will stick. I really don't like what he's doing with his voice on Goodness pt. 2. Also, listening via these clips is admittedly a very disjointed process and listening to the record as a cohesive whole might do wonders.
I think his vocals are so good on Goodness 2, it's everything else in the first half I'm not sure about.
Same. edit: Actually, let me say this as a mod: I know it's never been a problem to talk about leaks (this isn't one) in the past, but in the Entertainment threads, it's generally accepted that any *specific* information gets a spoiler tag until release date. I'm not trying to be a jerk, but this is a highly anticipated release and I know I'm not the only one waiting another month to hear it, so I really think those spoiler tags would be appreciated from this point forward (as @Jason Tate and @nothingsforeverdude have done). We've used them in the Thrice thread and people seem to appreciate that. I don't think it's too much to ask. Or, might I suggest taking advantage of the group chats? PM those who want to talk specifics about the album. Just don't force those of us waiting to sit through a month of discussion about the album or unsub, hah.
yeah, that's cool. I can definitely do that. Me and CoffeeEyes were mostly talking through Twitter messages about it last night and when responding on here I didn't even think to use spoiler tags, my bad.
You're fine! I'm not upset and I don't think anyone else is, I just figured I'd mention it before the thread was too far gone for some of us.
Not entirely sure how to use spoiler tags, haha. I know there's a thing you can write around your post but not sure what it is and there's no button that easily does it like for bold.
this album is the best and i love every second of it. "Two Deliverances" and "Sun" in particular are flawless pieces of music. All hail The Hotelier.
I didn't find much love for "Piano Player" the first time I heard it. However, "Soft Animal" piqued my interest so now I'm very much looking forward to this record. I hadn't heard Home in over a year and it felt like a brand new record. Excited to see what the band does.
so I just checked in -- it's like "sorta" leaked? I dont know if I want to listen early anyway. I haven't even listened to the newest song yet.
Soft Animal is the best song ever. - im going to try to listen to it as little as possible. on first listen i absolutely loved the "Fawn Doe, light snow" part, wow. i honestly dont feel that way when i first hear a song very often. I LOVED the guitar tone and i was really really into the drums on the entire track. i thought the drum beats were really creative. i cant wait to listen to this when the album comes out and listen to it with the lyrics. man, i was blown away. it really is rare for me to get the feeling i just did on an initial reaction of a song. CANNOT WAIT TO HEAR THIS ALBUM
Wait, has it leaked for real now? "End Of Reel" has grown on me tremendously since yesterday. At first I thought it was kind of disappointing but now I'm loving it. The only song I'm not super hot on is "Opening Mail For My Grandmother" but I still enjoy it a good bit.
