Am I missing something, when I click on the one that people say has a snippet of You In January there's nothing there? On either still image?

 

It's been removed for whatever reason, I guess it was there as an 'if you know you know' kinda thing but we're back to three available previews now.

 

Need a pre order soon, been waiting to get NCTH on vinyl!

 

snippet of Bluest Things on their instagram now

one of my absolute favorites

 

Also saw the 'new' version of Ernest Hemingway being hyped up on IG today

 

that one always hits so hard live

 

It's good to know... *mentally counts to nine in their head* I DIDN'T DIE FOR NOTHIIIIIIIIING

 

If they just cut Patsy Cline and the title track and put Cigs & Saints as the closer this album would be very strong imo

Excited to hear the remaster though, can't believe its been 10 years

 

I think they missed a trick with the 'saviours' motif (even if it mutates and shows up in other songs like I Wanted So Badly to Be Brave as lyrical framing) but the album works very well narratively even if they don't do the 'closer features a reprise of at least one song on the record' bit. Title track has to be there because of its ties to other songs on the record, it's a beautiful postscript kinda song.

 

The fact that nothing has been re-recorded is mad, the new versions sound absolutely massive in comparison. Also very intrigued as to how they'll re-imagine the album artwork

 

Yeah strange for a motif to play such a big role early in the album and then never come back.
Also sorry y'all but I agree with the people saying Patsy Cline should go. One of their weakest songs. Can you imagine if the intro was just part of Cardinals and the album opened with that into I Don't Like Who I Was Then into Cigarettes and Saints?!?!? (Into Bluest Things On Earth?!?!?!?!?!)

 

Maybe the new version of the record will do Patsy Cline justice, devastating writing from Dan and a bruiser of a song to match that sounded particularly suffocated unfortunately

 

Patsy Cline is one of their best

if we're chopping and changing honestly I think it's really obvious that Cigarettes and Saints should be the penultimate track going into t/t, that is way too powerful a song to be smack bang in the middle of the album lol

 

hoping the new version nukes the guest vocal while they're making changes tbh

 

I've always got on with the JAB feature so no thanks!

 

yeah we're not losing the part that entire song builds up to lol

 

am glad im not alone in always thinking cigarettes was jarringly early in the sequence, amazing amazing song though

 

premiere link, not live yet

 

Remaster drops at midnight. Let's ride.

 

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat

 

wait the whole thing???
