Funny how knowing there’s a FLAC somewhere out there makes waiting a day and a half longer feel like such a goddamn burden.

i'm going to fanboy all over this album. i just listened to quick escape... wasn't even anticipating that song and i love it. so powerful. "living life on the back porch/ lifting rocks to make a wage/ every sunset paid attention to/ not a starry night went to waste". if that doesn't capture the the feeling of isolation and fear and the refocusing on family taking place in quarantine, i don't know what does. there's no way this album doesn't punch me square in the face.

Jeff said it was the only picture of the whole band playing in the studio at the same time during this recording process.

I have Prime and it still says my vinyl is arriving Friday.

My CD pre-order, on the other hand, says 'delivery date pending'. :roll:

So, how does one find the supposed FLAC files without asking for said FLAC files. Do I just aimlessly browse the internet hoping for inspiration?? :haha:
