Dark Matter: Official Album Thread

So f'n weird how "I don't enjoy this music" gets contextualized as trolling.

I don't enjoy this music.

nothing wrong with this.

After all these years, it’s still a delight to hear these five guys gather in a room and lock into the kind of invigorating rock song that elevates your heart an extra inch or two.

Yeah, calling you a troll is a bad take. You've been totally open about your feelings and have gone to great lengths to explain your positions and reasoning.

But I guess it's gotta be 100% fan-boying or GTFO these days.

[VinylGuy]

its really cool after a re read from that RS interview to actually get a little more from Ed´s relationship with him and also with people.

I met a couple on Chicago around PJ20 and she had a similar story with her handling a note and eddie giving her a call for her bday a year from that day.

Pretty cool.

[evenslow]

Oh relax.

[Mike]

This discussion is repeating itself like late era Pearl Jam

[dad]

the album still has not leaked in case anyone was wondering.

Thanks for posting that Andrew Watt RS article. Truly one of us.

Incredible how the tide has fully turned against Trag. I've never seen such reputational self-sabotage since the great Argo schism of 2016

Probably 90% of us would rank the records as we already do regardless of production.

pearl jam sucks now

I only wish we could actually hear the room.

Is there a way we can extract the room sounds from superunnknon and fly them across the tracks on DM? Let's do this thing

[basically_infirmed]

I finally broke down and listened to the 30 second clips and woooooow

[Ledbetterdays]

So having listened through about 4 times I am wondering for others that have listened through: What should the next single be? Might be a fun poll.

I think React could be a great single

Good lord. Good lord. GOOD LAAAHHHDDYYY. First time hearing 30 second of WFS and now I understand the hype.

[Homeboyd]

Clips sound great...and dare I say not quite as over-produced as DM and Running. We shall see but in any case I'm gonna try to go dry until this thing releases...

[Thurman Murman]

Hard to keep up here so no idea if this has been posted yet:
