So I'll wait to listen to it until I can spin that wax.
Bandcamp?
Spotify, actually. I think?
Nice.
Bandcamp has a sweet looking metallic yellow variant. I almost went for that one.
Lovely.
Mine is like an orange marble. Haven't listened yet but it looks gorgeous!
Im diggin the new one a lot. Corin really shine here, her range is huge. I wonder if the album will have enough stay power...this one feels different like the true next album after The Woods, but i remember really liking the last two when they came out and completely lost my interest after a few weeks.

I’m not as tuned in as others with this band, but I thought this one was really good. Say It Like You Mean It, and Six Mistakes really stood out on the first listen.

The songs are either good or great, and its a very good sounding record in general.
Totally agree.
Still only a few spins in, but I really love this record.
even tough i like this drummer and her choice of being more limited and minimalist, i also think how Janet would have played these songs, which is a testament on how much i like them
Hello, new to the forum and a big (newer) S-K fan. I really liked Little Rope and I managed to see them four times during their recent tour and they were AMAZING. I much preferred this tour to the The Center Won't Hold tour.
Untidy Creatures is an absolute instant classic btw.

How do you like the post-Janet material compared to their older stuff?

Personally, nothing post-Cities is as good as what came before, but I think Little Rope has come the closest and feels like a return to form. I like parts of Center Won't Hold and I admit the songs are WAY better live. Path of Wellness is my least favorite S-K album, but I'll still give it a listen to occasionally. I think what hurt it the most was them self-producing it. The sound felt...safe? For lack of a better word.
My three favorite S-K albums are The Woods, Cities, and One Beat.

A very reasonable take and you named two of my top three SK records.

This Time / Here Today
I bought it, but I don't have the means the digitize it. Any suggestions?
I'd assume, youd have to have a way to run your record player though a PC and record the stream with a audio recorder? Not sure.
I'm surprised they havnt popped up on youtube yet
I ended up just recording it with my phone's mic and uploaded it to Youtube. It doesn't sound amazing, but it's better than nothing. I'll probably buy an H1 recorder at some point and redo it.
Sorry for the double post, but I was able to get the RSD '24 release digitized. I just paid some studio $30 to do it for me and I think it turned out very well. Below is a YT Link and a Mega link if you want to download it.
