Superscally Posted March 17, 2022 Report Share Posted March 17, 2022 Is "I fuck with that" a good thing, or a bad thing? Shit, I'm only just getting my head around a solid dabbing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes this place is like stan Twitter. It is genuinely mind blowing that you posted this, in total seriousness, without realising the irony erupting from it. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The webstore has the signed insert… but the indies have the white vinyl and poster! I’ve got for the white vinyl from Lost In Vinyl. Not cheap though! 32 quid delivered for seven tracks!

The picture disc on their webstore looked interesting, but I'd rather have a lovely gatefold sleeve with nice artwork than a picture disc in a clear plastic sleeve.

Not cheap though! 32 quid delivered for seven tracks! I've gone for the webstore's black vinyl. Finding out that the poster comes with that too swayed me. I'll take a black vinyl and a signed postcard over an exclusive white vinyl this time. The seven tracks are gonna be 5-6 minutes long, it seems, so we're still being well-fed. 2 minutes ago, Hutchmaster said: Went for the same one myself.

They should probably have put up a bundle with just the vinyl and picture disc so you could put them in the same sleeve if you wanted, rather than adding like CD's and cassettes in too.

circus92 Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 Wouldn't call myself a huge fan - but this is just brilliant. Just had 3 listens in the car and easily my song of the year so far. Liked it on first listen and it just gets better. I actually love the first part as much as the second - agree with the comment about 1 sounding like something from Pressure Machine. This would sound epic live - really excited now for the rest of the album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So 7 tracks but also kind of 11? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But maybe that was just one isolated show from a band who I had not seen before at that point. they sold 30,661/34,779 tickets in london (for reference black sabbath's final london dates were 30,370/35,097) so very close.

elgatonegrofabricwardrobe Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 Ordered the vinyl, cd and clear tape with signed insert this morning. Can't get enough of this song. Listened to it almost as many times as I've watched the clip of that bloke with the bolt cutters at Everton last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

internetjef Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 Absoluely loving this. Prefer second part but first part is a grower too. does sound pretty classic Neon Bible / Suburbs era, but I’m down with that ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpo Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 Great that it's coming out so soon too. Even if they release more music from the album between now and release, I think I'm going to hold fire and get as much of a fresh listen as I can in May. 1 hour ago, dentalplan said: “The attendance today for Arcade Fire at Wembley Arena is 30,661!” *gentle applause* Would have worked well alongside their ringwalk intro they did on the last tour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have worked well alongside their ringwalk intro they did on the last tour Yeah they've previously rolled out over life half a year at least so its cool to get it so quickly. Looks like Josh Tillman is on the album somehow, can't make out what he's credited for on the poster though. The design direction on this sick, by the way. Getting a 60's cinema vibe off the poster/logo and that eye/black hole on the inside of the vinyl (EDIT: I mean the back cover) is mesmerising.

mattiloy Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 (edited) Maybe someone already mentioned, but after several listens - war on drugs influence? (And therefore Springsteen influence) Also think Sam Fender largely does a Springsteen impression. Is this the new hegemony of sound for rock acts? - Springsteen revival I ain’t complaining if so.

Daddy likey Yeah it’s been the case for a couple of years now. The Killers obviously tried their hand at it way back with Sam’s Town and then brought it back moreso with Imploding the Mirage and Pressure Machine, and it seems to have caught on with quite a few rock acts lately. Like you, I ain’t complaining. Love a bit of soaring heartland rock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daddy likey Arcade Fire were doing that as early as 2007. Nothing new for them. This song does however seem influenced by 2007 Arcade Fire.
