Dark Matter: Official Album Thread

[Ms Harmless]

Waiting for Stevie!!!!!!! GOD

it is The Cure for my depression

oh my god, new harmony in the bridge???

[stip]

i was waiting for that report. thank you l!

[Ms Harmless]

Listening through again, and about to get my balls blown off by the RR ending

I knew it'd grow on ya

[Homeboyd]

There are multiple vocal and instrumental hooks on this record that worm their way in to your brain, and you'll hum them all day, until you can spin it again.

Big call but this is Yield 2.0.

We’ll see how the songs hold up but I’m very confident in saying Ed hasn’t sounded this good since Yield…everyone seems to be on fire on this album but to me Ed is the standout. Just so many excellent vocal tones and melodies that have been absent for years…

[Juvenal]

Wait until Got To Give hits you.

I refer the honourable gentleman to this:

Christ on a bike

[Juvenal]

Currently picking from this album like a tapas menu an enjoying every bit

Absolutely - we will only know in time. I was more referring to the hooks and inflections that stick. Yield is absolutely littered with them.

Haha this perfectly sums up my experience with it today

[WaitingForBluey]

Once I listened on headphones and I could what both guitars were doing on Scared of Fear panned left and right, that totally opened up the song for me. That's the best of that song.

That palm muted picked guitar part in R/R... tasty tasty

[Ms Harmless]

Something Special makes me dance

oh! new background harmony

[Juvenal]

I know not everyone will be 100% happy, but how amazing for a band that we all love to produce an album this (subjectively) good? I'm one happy man

[WaitingForBluey]

Stereo panning of the guitar parts is this album's secret weapon!

eddie really goes for it in that ending sequence and just nails it. even the high note stays where it needs to

I've been avoiding the singles but loving the different flavours so far

[WaitingForBluey]

"If you're feeling the leaving"

I love that freakin' line!! It's so awkward and Ed

[WaitingForBluey]

Fuck Taylor Swift.... #1 album here we come

[Ms Harmless]

I genuinely hope it does well, the boys made us proud

[Juvenal]

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm bowing out with another superlative spin of Setting Sun.

Good night and god bless you all, and may your dispassionate sober eyes be kind on my drunken ramblings in the coming days and may the north of America and elsewhere enjoy the official release

If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended:

*Juvenal exeunt pursued by a fucking great album*

So is it OK for a grown ass man to be brought to tears by a God damn rock band? I hope so , because if it's not I'm going to have to forget this ever happened
