Yeah, I think I can lay off the door leak now until we get additional official releases or teasers. I still hear it in my head, but I won't be playing it on my laptop.

I have wondered if he's felt kind of sidelined, with how acclaimed Gigaton was and how they sang his praises perhaps he thought he was their new go-to studio guy and suddenly this hotshot Justin Bieber producer comes along and he's shoved asideMs Harmless wrote:that's excellent news!

Re: Dark Matter: Official Album Thread
I’ve practiced metal door clips abstinence for a week now. Since we have one of 11 songs I’ll chew on that for a while. I can also hear all the other clips pretty clearly in my head so, what’s the difference?Jaeti wrote:Yeah, I think I can lay off the door leak now until we get additional official releases or teasers.

PJtourkid (rich from post listening party YouTube video) has confirmed that setting sun is heavy, and I think it may be the final clip.
The first and last have me rigid.

Re: Dark Matter: Official Album Thread
Josh may have been fine not being asked to produce the new album. I read an interview with him in Sound & Vision from last summer when he was working on the Dolby mix of Yield, and he was really enthusiastic about the format. He talked extensively about ideas he had for recording albums in Atmos from the ground up and how he wanted to deploy the format in new and exciting ways.
Not coincidentally, he's worked on the new mix of DM alongside Nick Rives.

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…

Re: Dark Matter: Official Album Thread
it's very possible that Josh knew already that their experience with BO'B has made them not even want a go-to producer anymore

If setting sun is the last clip, then the whole metal door leak is out of sequence. Could be though.DDWJMUVW wrote:I’ve practiced metal door clips abstinence for a week now.

Re: Dark Matter: Official Album Thread
It’s the last snipped and setting sun is the last song. I guess I’m assuming some were skipped. From what the guy described, it doesn’t seem like running (which he says is crazy heavy/fast). So that really only leaves Setting.Vindicator wrote:If setting sun is the last clip, then the whole metal door leak is out of sequence.
