The chord progression in Cold COncession is so unique for them and that is Ed playing it too. Sounds like his tele/amp combo...

That's why I've only listened once, but i wanna listen a ton more. Be happy that there are 2 fantastic songs for you to hear when you are ready
I'm maybe 5 times in for each and it gets better and better. I'm smiling like a freak.

I haven't been this happy in a long time. Of all the times someone has found a leak or an odd recording in this place, these songs are just great.

Cold Confession reminds me of R.E.M. (in a very good way).

That title track is going to have to be a fucking studio tour de force to top these two.

By the way you guys are talking, if these tracks aren't on LB, I'm just going to DL them and add them to it once it's released. It'll be a 14 track beauty then. :hooray:
