Dark Matter: Official Album Thread

[stip]

i am theoretically waiting until friday or a real leak to listen again

but the odds of me doing that are slim

I think in the excitement of hearing new songs it initially gets lost just how low quality the leak is (still appreciated!). But upon multiple listens it becomes harder to listen to imo.

now i know enough and even if i cant make it to a tuesday screening i can enjoy reviews and posts without FOMA

I'm smiling ear to ear while listening to Wreckage.

Good lord how I love this guys.

Reminds me of a spanish Pop/rock band called Revolver.

The end of React/respond is the heaviest shit they've recorded since forever. Heavy, not spritzy.

Holy shit.

[Farmer John]

Those verses in Wreckage are catchy as hell

its a fantastic album and will only get better with good quality release

[WtOB?]

rage quitting and personality flare-ups are what a new album is all about! keep up the good work, gang.

I hear I am mine meeting Seven o'clock with some Eddie solo stuff in between.

I really like it, and I think it will sound really good on the real record.

Yeah, I have to say... maybe up there with In Hiding for me. Really shocked by this one, like no one said "no" to some very great - albeit simple - song writing. Love it.

Don't forget all the wild proclamations of self importance.

the album would be much better if it had been mixed by a boomer who never washes though

Gender jokes aren’t not cool, but ageism is cool? Just trying to understand the guidelines

haha OK

I’m sure the underemployed boomers and victims of elder abuse appreciate your steadfast allyship

not sure why you are trying to rile people up at this moment. Do you need them to hate PJ too?

I find the fawning over some cell phone videos to be a bit ridiculous. I think it’s healthy for people to question their fandom/biases.

Like, I haven’t read every page but I’m pretty sure I saw at least couple people already trying to rank this album?

So? Why does this bother you? Why do you have to come in and check people? Them enjoying it has nothing to do with you. You dont need to save them. or anyone.

Got To Give is joyous. Sounds like Bruce with Fleetwood Mac, and has Yield vibes.

It's just beautiful. And yes, very Petty-esque.

I'm gonna share this song with a lot of friends.

The first three songs blow DM and Running out of the water.

Trag i love when you come in with criticism about various aspects of production, song writing, song selection, vocal ticks, business practices....
But to come in and shit on someone whos just enjoying a pseudo leak today.... just says more about you that you are just being a dick on the internet to be a dick. Which isnt who you are.....

its lame.

Love you.

[Homeboyd]

Are we overreacting? Of course! Do we know we’re overreacting? Of course! But it’s day one and at least for me it’s part of the fun to get swept up in it a bit.

[DeeDee]

Dark Matter is nicely placed right after the gorgeous Wreckage.

2.18 am here, and I couldn't resist it anymore.

Loving it so far.

Setting Sun is a trio mix of Let Me Sleep, Gideon by My Morning Jacket, and something from Pink Floyd's Animals.

I thought the climax was very Hard To Imagine-ish
