As bizarre as this is, the 320kbps MP3 files available from the website are reportedly transcoded.

Stick with either the 16 or 24 bit WAVs (or MP3s made from them.)

Oh, the album is incredible btw.

Almost unreal that I'm seeing them play in a few weeks.

Amusing reading last night's setlist in Korea.

Kevin made the band play To Here Knows When twice because he wasn't happy with the first attempt and later it took them three goes to get Feed Me with Your Kiss right. They had to abort Only Shallow due to technical problems and then played it again later in the show.

Let's, uh, hope they work all that out before the Australian shows...

Ruh roh.

im listening to it right now. Im in track 3 and the previous ones were fuckin amazing.

i admittedly never really liked Loveless. i appreciated it, but it was never something that i found myself thinking, "man, i really want to listen to Loveless right now". this new album though, it's pretty sweet.

First listen and really impressed...its a great record.
Its not different or a new approach, its just good.

This is probably their best album.

God, I hope the next one isn't another 21 years away.

That's a bold call two days after release!

i just only listen to this since sunday

Go on...

Still only New You from the new album being played in the setlists so far from the two dates in Japan.

The Melbourne show I'm seeing is the last of the tour, so I hope they will have added more by then.

Just getting around to hearing this (2 spins today) and it's "Holy fucking shit!" good.

LOL

Friday night!

I'm bringing earplugs.

edit

I'm not sure how I never listened to this band since they are right in my wheelhouse and there's no reason I shouldn't have been listening to them along with all the other alt-rock bands of the late 80s/early 90s back when I was in high school. Anyway, I finally listened to Loveless and it is really amazing.

Guess what?

This was quite disappointing. They're not a terribly good live band. Still love the records, but wouldn't see them play again.
