Guessing there's a leak of this or something? How are you guys listening to this already? Was hoping to find it on Spotify, but I see Amazon says it doesn't come out until 4/30.

Spin is streaming the instrumental version so there are a few leaks from that stream around - http://www.spin.com/articles/the-ocean- ... s-pelagial

Anyone enjoying the new Intronaut? I'm not sure I like it as much as Valley of Smoke, but it is still a very good album. Lots of layers.

Anciients are a new band out of Vancouver that I've been hearing more and more about lately. Their debut comes out later this month, and they are streaming it on Bandcamp. On first listen: no way this is only their first record. I'm going to be listening to this one for a long time!

The Ocean are great, but can be a bit hit-or-miss at times. Definitely worth the investment though.

I listened to the new Intronaut a couple of times and thought it was ok. Need more time with it i suspect. with headphones.

Interestingly, the first time I listened to the new Intronaut was with headphones (as is my usual custom for highly anticipated music), and I was left wanting. I have a decent set of 'phones, but the album didn't seem to have the space it needed to breathe. I've listened to it several more times on my stereo and I'm enjoying it more and more each time. Another listen over headphones is probably in order now that I've peeled back some of the layers...it's definitely a grower.

I haven't sat down to absorb Entrench yet. I enjoyed KEN Mode's last few albums though, so I'll definitely get around to it before too long.

Yep. Both are solid! I've only listened to the new Uncle Acid twice, but I loved their 2 previous albums. Haven't checked out the new Kvelertak yet, but those guys are always a fun listen.

Started listening to this album on bandcamp and found out halfway in that only the first side was available for streaming. I'm so blueballed right now. If you like stoner/doom and RIFFS you might want to track this one down.
