Dark Matter: Official Album Thread

[WaitingForBluey]

I'm about to head out soon for the theater. I have no idea why I'm feeling so nervous. I've already heard the album.

So what is the lyrical theme of Wreckage and R/R what resonates

I'm afraid I can't remember any more than vague "I like / not so much" responses, but two lines I wrote down:

"cause you're now like the water, and the water will find its way"

"...and if it's not OK, well it ain't the end"

nothing wrong with a well-utilized cliché in my book

So the movie mix is made by Josh Evans?

its going to be interesting for those who went to the theatre to see if they recall it differently when this one finally drops online

I really, really hope it's not that different but I think the movie mix is the Atmos Josh mix... we'll wait and see!

I'm really glad you enjoyed your cinema trip

Any take aways Harms? Are lyrics ruining any otherwise great songs are they lifting songs up. Are the forces on the nose or more airy ? I know you are a Poetic type what resonated with you

Sorry just saw your above post

I'm hearing that the movie theater versions are a big different than the record store listening versions. Users on reddit noted a difference on Dark Matter title track (??) and a different outro to Waiting For Stevie.

Wtf?

Wtf?

no different intro, that WFS outro is still there; it was the Atmos mix so Josh might’ve mixed it but musically exactly the same; whoever that is be trippin'

edit: when they play the album second time around it's missing the intro and interlude because those have no lyrics, was this guy late?

[Force Of Nature]

I was in an odeon luxe cinema and didn’t love the sound. Thought it was the way the record was produced until dark matter came on and I could compare to what I’d heard before. So the songs themselves sound great, but didn’t translate as well in this particular cinema.
Excited for the album version later this week using Spotify and headphones.

I was pleasantly surprised that the guitars on DM and Running were warmer, a little less tinny and metallic, so more consistent with the rest; I hope the stream has that

Yeh I noticed the interlude was missing second time round. It’s weird, with the lyrics the overall song sounded clear to me, felt a bit muffled first time round

Presumably it's a 5.1 mix, or maybe 7.1, so there could just be different things people hearing

Maybe they're getting Josh Evans' Atmos mix.

Ugh I have tickets but thinking of skipping if there's gonna be sound issues. Already heard cell phone leak like 6 times, I just need to hear it in high quality with headphones, don't think movie theater gonna do much for me
