We are almost there. I will not listen to the snippets at this point.

Ready for front to end listens of this beast. It took a long time for me to see the little deft touches in SWBM which makes me think the snippets will be frustrating more than tantalising.

People are really scared and seeing people in Ireland feel the pinch of the lockdown, with wages cut. Makes me really appreciate the small graces I have and one of them is looking forward to this album.

I do not remember an early LB stream. Would be great for an early Gigaton stream in these times.

I don't remember a damn thing about the lead up to LB, leaks, an early release.

I had a lot going on in my life at that time though.

I remember amazon had backspacer clips. And all of us almost collectively lost our minds about amongst the waves in particular.

But I don’t remember same for LB

I distinctly remember the ATW clip... In retrospect, they gave us the absolute emotional apex of the song...."Laaaaaeeeeaaate" which they seem to be guarding against for this album.

I ordered a CD from amazon the other day because I thought they still give a digital copy if you bought physical media.

Hoping that's still the case because who knows when it'll ship.

Your "must haves" indicate Amazon.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Is the physical CD any different, or missing any digital bonus tracks compared to PJ site?

Unless you "need" vinyl ASAP instead of digital, what does it matter? It will be available for listen digitally right away everywhere. Can you only listen on vinyl?
