First time through (streaming): Never In The Real World and Penny For Your Thoughts are the two I’m most excited to hear live.
I need these to sit for 2 weeks please. Additionally, woooo buddy. This album is a vibe. Some weak spots second listen thru but I think I'm just distracted during the runout instrumentation and need to have a focused listen once more.A little surprised these are 45 rpm, aren't these mostly low-fi recordings, demos and such?
Spinning side A right now. 'In Color' is definitely a jam!Listened to the new album yesterday on my flight to Austin - definitely exceeded expectations. I think it gripped me more on first listen than either of the Waterfalls.
In Color, Never In The Real World, and I Never Could Get Enough were big highlights. Jazzy outro on Devil’s In The Details was very cool too. This is definitely a new phase for them, IMO.
Can confirm that it’s very good live.Spinning side A right now. 'In Color' is definitely a jam!
How’s the pressing sound?Mine arrived today (with a gift for the wife to distract her from another record walking in the door.)

So far I’ve only had time to spin Penny for your Thoughts and I Could Never Get Enough.How’s the pressing sound?
That’s the flavor I got as well. Might give it a spin before proper cleaning to check for any major issuesI got the deluxe from their site and it’s the flattest, most issue free new vinyl I’ve gotten in years but obviously YMMV
Ok, after nearly a week with the new album on constant - I'm prepared to work it into the rankings (Live Albums and EPs are purposely omitted).
