Curious how long the buzz will last. Will we talk about this as much as Gigaton? Less? I guess we’ll find out soon enough.

I can't wait for all of the new accounts when we get word that this thing has leaked a week early. Remember everyone, PM VinylGuy for the leak!

I'm trying to recall...

I think RM is where I got Riot Act several months early (fall 2003?)... and the 5 or 6 song Avacado rough cut seemed well in advance of the album as well.

5H was pretty much gone by 2003,right?

Like always at a new album cycle I go back and spend sometime with previous albums. So yesterday I revised my least favorite. Lightning Bolt . Least favorite doesn't mean I don't enjoy it I do. Listening yesterday I realized something about it. That is its not really a rock record. I started to hear much more as a pop record. The middle stretch Sirens,Lb and Infallible are just pure pop to my ears as is the final 4. Pendulum My Father's Son and Mym offer some sort of a line back to 94, but it isn't direct that's for sure.
Dark Matter by all accounts isn't coming across as a pop record at all. Which I think bodes well . There will always be pop moments. Ed and Stone are both obviously influenced greatly by pop. My sense is this will be a bit of a mix of S/T and Riot Act in scope.

yeah I don't really mind "iffy" pop production if we're getting some Binaural / Riot Act influence; that could create some welcome (if not intentional) paradoxical push and pull in the sound, and do it more successfully than Lightning Bolt did

I've really enjoyed the first two songs and looking forward to chatting more about the rest.

I had to take a break though because all the talk became overly negative, which I understand and respect as part of this place and the process.

Still, needed to just sit with these tunes on my own for a bit.

In terms of revisiting old music, I listened to I got Id / Long Road the other day....my goodness that is just perfect. :heartbeat:

Some listening party reviewers mentioned that a couple of new songs reminded them of old 90s PJ so…

Anyways we’ll see in just a few weeks.

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

Debate by RM standar that is.

Fierce debate.

Gigaton poll has 81% 4+ stars. Tall order to reach that level of consensus again.
