Guess I’m listening to this band and record for the first time tonight

 

Good, yeah, fuck Mark Kozelek.

 

Yes, he did it in Chicago. Just checked my video.

 

Is Survived By (Revived) is out today.

 

The re-mastering of the album is less noticeable on the whole, drums might just be a bit clearer.

 

Really hoping we get something new from them this year.

 

JESUS CHRIST OK I need one of these

 

I never had any issues with how the original sounded, and Brad Wood did both the original and the new mix, so I'm looking forward to A/Bing them later.

 

Same, it was fine for what it is. Looks like it's also Dolby Atmos on Apple Music but I turn that off because so many mixes are bad.

 

Also never had an issue with the original but this new mix has reignited my serious obsession with this record. It's subtle, but I feel there's more midrange in general. Bass and Jeremy's vocals stand out more, too. It especially sounds great on Harbour and Steps. Wasn't going to bother grabbing one of the LPs but love Jeremy's version.

 

I read something recently where Jeremy wasn’t happy with how it ended up and apparently Brad accidentally deleted or misplaced some of the original takes? So Jeremy had to re record them all and wasn’t happy with it but man I adore this record. I’ll checkout the remaster at some point this weekend

 

This sounds like a great read. If you can remember where it was posted please link!

 

I want to say it was on one of his podcast episodes with one of his guests maybe even Ross Robinson when they were talking about recording stories.

 

Yeah, this a much more subtle update than I would have thought based on how Jeremy talked about it. Not even sure I would know which is which in a blind test. Album still rules though.

Much prefer this to the abysmal 10 year anniversary mix La Dispute did for Somewhere At the Bottom of the River.

 

Social Caterpillar through Is Survived By is probably my favorite thing this band has ever done

 

DNA

 

Got something coming in the mail from them today but not sure what, I didn’t order anything:

 

It’s a metallic blue Is Survived By sticker.

 

New album on the way

 

HWFG! They played the opening track (I've forgotten it's name) from upcoming record at Outbreak, which was of course absolutely mint. I spoke to Nick briefly after their set and he mentioned a new LP out "early fall."

 

September/October has traditionally been Touché season for a while so makes sense

 

I was at Outbreak as well. Their set was incredible. Pretty sure Jeremy said the new song was called ‘nobody’s’, I guess it could also be ‘nobodies’ haha.

 

Yeah, it's Nobodies. I'd be surprised if it wasn't the lead single.
