I haven't spent enough time with it to comfortably call it a concept album or anything like that but those elements give a concept album quality that I really dig.

If you're really a lurker, you'd know Superblood Wolfmoon's original name.

I’m no audiophile but the singles here at least sound wider and more detailed than the iTunes versions.

Speculating, but, the width you describe MAY be the swirling sounds that are a tell-tale sign of transcoded audio. Maybe not. I'll know more when I can listen later on.

DotC may still be the best track, but I did not feel that way after one listen of that song so who knows.

I’m deaf as a post but I’m just hearing more in the actual playing not the space or production really.
You know your stuff though I’ll defer cos you’re more than likely right.

Wow. Didn’t expect to like the record this much. The only song I don’t like is never destination. This far into their career to have even one amazing song on a record is a plus. Dance, Quick Escape, 7 oclock, buckle up, etc. This is a solid record. Eddie sounds great. I don’t care for Retrograde either. Don’t hate it but it isn’t my thing. But I am actually finding songs on here that I LOVE and that hasn’t happened since yield for me.
