By all accounts, this one will be my favorite. Even though it’s an official release, think I’m still going to give it until Thursday for my CD to show. I’m probably overdoing it at this point but waited this long...what’s another day or so?

My thoughts exactly, but I'm more and more encouraged by reading everyone's initial reactions (especially to this song in particular). I'm still in!

Good news fellas, for anyone who pre-ordered the CD from Ten Club, you be receiving it a few days early. Mine just came in the mail.

p.s. woops... and ladies too, of course!

1) you are stronger than me.
2) my half-assed justification for listening is that i was anticipating this song the least. i'm far more attracted to the descriptions of WES, alright, 7:00, retrograde and river cross. So, i thought, if I play this and i love it, i'm not really cheating, AND i'm building excitement and anticipation.

it is fantastic. so much going on. not to mention, blasting this through our sonos system to my three kids and wife, who is finally off her back after a brush with the virus, was a much needed jolt of electricity. we all jammed out to it in the living room. will be a memory. not going to beat this thing to death today though.... at least that's my plan.

I wonder if that applies to Europe (Ireland in this case).

Good to hear on the virus! This whole strange situation is partially why I’m holding off also. Might be my whole weekend.

Yeah, my 11 year old just stumbled on to it on his own. I heard a bit over his headphones from a distance. I’m going to like this one. No CD today in Wisconsin. Giving this one more day.

I hereby recuse myself from the club....

It's been a time, folks. Lovely, in fact

Ben, great to hear about your lady...good news :peace:
We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…

This wait has been the worst of all the album waits imo. I feel like going to a mosh pit. Its taking all my strength to not listen to the latest single Quick Escape. I'm genuinely stressed about it at this point which makes no sense to me.

you have to break your resolve down deliberately and incrementally. Step 1, tell yourself it's ok because it's not a leak. simmer on that for a while. When that feels good, step 2: tell yourself you'll only listen to it once, and via your iphone speaker or shitty headphones so to not get the full experience. Then, give in to the inevitable impulse to actually experience it through good speakers/headphones, which is only natural, after all. Then, enjoy the song on repeat until midnight tomorrow night with blissful impunity because, fuck it.

This club is for those that will ignore all unofficial leaks. This includes bootleg live recordings, pirate/unofficial copies of song recordings, etc.

Official single releases, seeing live performances in person, or official video clips are fine! After all, these are not leaks.

I appreciate the sentiment but I would rather have nothing overtly drawn attention to "in my memory" from the forum, please :) that wasn't me

Possibly. I'm not sure everyone has checked in yet. But could I be the last person on RM to listen?

Perhaps I should give a play by play first listen run through.
