Gigaton: Official album thread

[lecherouslittlestump]

Guys stop pm'ing me for links to the album, I don't have it and I haven't heard the album. The only thing I can confirm is the tracklist, that's it, and I've heard a snippet of DOTC too.

How it pains me to be reminded of Out of Sand, even for the briefest moment.

[rick malone]

Also excited for PJ's first reggae song.

We all have

You mean there’s no song called Gigaton. Just imagine what Eddie Vedder could do to that word in song. RM dream come true.

Alright so we can put those rumors of a double album to bed. We know Gigaton is long (ish) in that it requires 3 sides of wax, but not that long because it doesn't need 4. Gigaton is not produced by BOB but the last single they released was.

I wonder if that means there is a second album on the horizon? Or if that was totally scrapped? We've heard rumors of a double album, a No Code 2, and a quieter synthy thing. IF there is a second album and not a totally scrapped and trashed previous album, will it drop later this year? Will it drop in 6 months? 12 months? Next month? Or even if it's finished will we have to wait another seven years?

It's always interesting which rumors come true and which don't.

Time for a 12th Album (Rumors and Speculation) thread!

MODS?!

I believe it already exists.

auspicious beginnings

[darth_vedder]

I'm feeling cautiously optimistic about this record.

I like the cover art, I like the name of the single, I love that they moved away from O'Brien - it's looking good.

I'm not expecting miracles but a solid, enjoyable addition to their catalogue would be very welcome, especially after Lightning Bolt.

I'm going to cancel my pre order if CDM or Out of Sand are on it

[VinylGuy]

fuck Out of Sand is so different from what this seems to be...Ed with an acoustic? No thanks.

Conversely, a total absence of those songs and Of the Earth would give me additional hope.

What if synths means some cross pollenation of inspiration between Pink Floyd and The Who? I mean they basically cover those bands nearly every night they are on tour. Maybe we’ll get a light show, and they’ll present the album in full every night, props and all.

They thought Sirens was Pink Floydesque.

It is...until Eddie sings.

Alternatively, it is, if you include A Momentary Lapse of Reason.

Are we there yet? with my love...my gigaton

Ohhh gigaton...can i ride those waves you gave?
