All signs point to this being more divisive than Gigaton so it will generate a ton of debate

You think? My plan is to bitch hard for about a week then never think of it again.

The Dolby Atmos mixes of the two songs that have been released- have those been heard yet, and are they the Josh Evans versions?

My expectations of Dark Matter are that it should be at least as good, if not better, than Gigaton. I don't know if that will hold for RM when it comes to the album polls, but I won't let that affect my enjoyment of new music by the band I love. It's always nice to have people like the new music, but in the end, if it doesn't hit the spot for you personally, it doesn't really matter if everyone else rates it highly.

Based on the first two singles, I don't see why I should lower my expectations. DotC was 5 stars, SBWM was 3.25 when I heard it initially. In comparison, Dark Matter is 4.5 stars and Running 3.75. While DotC was clearly the best song on Gigaton, I don't expect Dark Matter to be the best on this album. Overall, I'm pretty excited for this thing.

And yes, when it leaks, I will be desperate to listen. Even if that's just a week prior to official release.

i haven't really needed to post in this thread much because trag pretty much represents my views. so x2 on all that trag stuff.

i'd like to hereby announce my support for trag.

Got some small impressions from a user on reddit who attended the initial listening party. Figured I'd post since news has been slow

"I wrote down my initial scoring after I heard the album and some thoughts. I think it’s a good time to share since everyone has had a taste of the album. This is just off first listen. Ratings will obviously change (pretty sure they will go up tbh) But this is for anyone who is thirsty for the new album info. take it with a grain of salt. For entertainment purposes only

Scared of Fear **** (chorus is killer) React/Respond *** (didn’t hit the high of the first song. aggressive) Wreckage ** (was expecting a lot from this and was kinda disappointed. Not counting it out since it’s rumored as a single. Room to grow.) Dark Matter **1/2 (Didn’t quite connect on first listen but **** song now. Love it.) Won’t Tell N/A (zero memory of this one) Upper Hand ***1/2 (Binaural fans will freak out at the intro. NAIS-ish. Then turns into a mid tempo radio rocker.) Waiting for Stevie ***** (don’t want to hype this one up too much. But was my fav of the bunch. Haven’t had a high on first listen from a PJ song like this since Unthought Known. But I’m still not sure how it will land with everyone else. Maybe too poppy?) Running ***1/2 (Fun rocker. Punkiest song on the album? Ending is batshit.) Someone Special ** (not my vibe but will be a fav by some(one special) Got to Give *** (mid tempo radio friendly rocker. Think you’re true and Without You but done with the band) Setting Sun **** (Perfect closer. Felt like I was on a beach.)

Fans with a home stereo set up are gonna love it. Feels like an album that should surround you. And it is complete and cohesive."

good review for one listen

Since unthought known?

C'mon man!

Hopefully it leaks soon and Trag will have it all done by the time the album drops.

Id love to be able to tell Trag his observations are wrong. But unfortunately..............

Upper Hand ***1/2 (Binaural fans will freak out at the intro. NAIS-ish. Then turns into a mid tempo radio rocker.)
