All I can say is that if/when they start touring they better not bitch out and play only Genesis and Ohms. This whole record needs to be showcased live.

I have a feeling tbe rescheduled tour will turn into the Ohms tour. I kept my tickets from the first time around

100% agreed. Every song here would absolutely kill live

Ohms works better within the context of the album as a nice little epilogue, but it's probably still my least favorite of the album. The "time won't change this" part seems like Chino pushing against Stef's riff a little too much. Still a good song, though - appreciate Stef for going for riffs that aren't just bruisers.

Okay, those are my discombobulated thoughts. Good night.

I'm a little sad for Gore now, tbh. If only its production was anywhere closer to this.... this just sounds so gorgeous, so thick yet so spacy, so pristine... also sounds very well mastered, the Ohms video had me scared as there's a lot of very obvious clipping on the audio there, but the album sounds smooth as butter
i'm confused??

I'm just two listens in, but I believe it is as much a grower as it is an instant hit, simply because there's just so much to listen for. The songs also seem pretty complex structurally, so its not just a bunch of instantly recognizable hooks which will stay in your head for a week but grow tiring quickly after that. There's a lot to sink in, but its all just obviously good

Lovely - this is exactly what I wanted to hear!

Has anyone got the dual wield, ban hammers dropped on them? Or mostly well behaved?

RE: SMLiberator's comment: I totally agree with your assessment. That quality gives it lots of longevity too.

Multiple listens in, and yeah, there isn't a bad song on here. Already putting it above Koi and Gore, and we'll see how far it rises up over time.

Thanks for your work here Ves. It will be worth it to wait for the highest quality version.

I'm just now able sit an actually enjoy and listen to this.I am absolutely in love. maybe it's the hype talking, but I think this album actually exceeded my hype. I'm curious to see if there's even one person that is disappointed?I think you'd be hard-pressed to find someone that's disappointed with this beauty.

Ves, I'm not inside your brain so I don't know exactly how you will feel, but there's a good chance this album could enter your Pantheon of albums from this band. if anything I would bet money that this will be your favorite album from the Sergio era. I could be wrong but you'll definitely like it more than gore that's for certain LOL
Throw your faith in me. I'll take you some place brand new....

SMLiberator

totally do believe the hype. hearing it now it's not surprising AT ALL how there were no negative reviews.

also speaking of Sergio, his basswork in Ceremony is gorgeous. I'm not sure whether my favorite part about this song is that, the part Chino goes "oooooh" or the part imediately after the "ooooh"
i'm confused??

Everyone give it up for those two!

Ps - It's not White Pony. Nothing else ever will be. For example my favourite records are ATF and WP (if I had to choose only two records). This is just different. It will take time to sink in to where you would slot it into your rankings. I await your appraisal upon listening.
It's just different and it flows really well.

Abe is fucking killing it on this album.
