This album just ended and I applauded.

chord progression in the bridge of "the right one" is essentially the peak of music for me
i know i'm gonna fill this thread with hyperbole but i really feel that
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 January 2016 05:50 (eight years ago) link
does "the greatest" sound even more like an infinite swirl in album context? yes
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 January 2016 05:53 (eight years ago) link
god i feel like a diamond buried in a riverbed
i'm a little drunk which i think is appropriate
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 January 2016 05:57 (eight years ago) link
this shit is sick

"The Greatest" sounds way better on the album than in isolation.
― The Reverend, Thursday, 28 January 2016 05:58 (eight years ago) link
the new intros and outros on the old songs are like some ascension to heaven-level shit
― The Reverend, Thursday, 28 January 2016 05:59 (eight years ago) link
the "supernatural" intro is unreal
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 January 2016 06:01 (eight years ago) link
Okay, really, releasing this in January is really unfair to everyone else who wanted to release an album this year. Y'all can't make a better one than this.

i think i can sink into this album forever!
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 January 2016 06:02 (eight years ago) link
ok I got a little more to drink and wow "love song"
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 January 2016 06:08 (eight years ago) link
i think my spine is melting

haven't followed the tracklist but whatever guitar solo happens at 45 mins is very *throws devil horns*

jesus the last song
― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Thursday, 28 January 2016 06:15 (eight years ago) link
i've spent a lot of time with these singles and they honestly feel brand new on the album
that is nuts, that never happens

i mean kudos to them that they have built such a rich and seamless and iridescent ecosystem in which i hope to live forever
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 January 2016 06:21 (eight years ago) link
this album is an hour long? this is literally the only album on earth where i will not mind that it is an hour long
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 January 2016 06:27 (eight years ago) link
"the story" as the penultimate track feels like some kind of full circle thing idk. feeling something like completed symmetry just hearing that synth line
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 January 2016 06:35 (eight years ago) link
well cool i have been woven gently into the fabric of the universe. goodnight everyone

― alpine static, Thursday, 28 January 2016 07:41 (eight years ago) link
oh wow it's out there but i have a hectic day today. yknow what i'm not going to do king like that, i'm going to approach their album with a bit more ceremony than others (rihanna). i've waited five years i can wait one more day.

Ah, this is frustrating, I pre-ordered the album on Bandcamp, but it doesn't come out until next week, and I have no idea how I'd be able to play the stream on my stereo... Is it worth listening on your computer with headphones?
― Tuomas, Thursday, 28 January 2016 08:33 (eight years ago) link
holy cow this is good
― lute bro (brimstead), Thursday, 28 January 2016 09:33 (eight years ago) link
xp can't you just hook up your computer to your stereo?
― moans and feedback (Dinsdale), Thursday, 28 January 2016 09:37 (eight years ago) link
They're in different rooms, so no, sadly.
― Tuomas, Thursday, 28 January 2016 09:53 (eight years ago) link
stream it on your phone?
― art baengels (monotony), Thursday, 28 January 2016 09:55 (eight years ago) link
This is the best thing I have ever heard.
― Tim F, Thursday, 28 January 2016 10:26 (eight years ago) link
halfway through and there's literally nothing i can say to contradict any of you
this is exceptional
― ZESTY O'PRIDE (imago), Thursday, 28 January 2016 11:38 (eight years ago) link
this is it, the singularity
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 January 2016 11:39 (eight years ago) link
feels so weird to finish the 2015 albums poll countdown today after listening to the 2016 winner
― ZESTY O'PRIDE (imago), Thursday, 28 January 2016 11:42 (eight years ago) link
thankyou Novak Djokovic for winning so quickly and permitting me time to hear this blessed masterpiece
― cher guevara (lex pretend), Thursday, 28 January 2016 11:45 (eight years ago) link
i read that as based masterpiece, still made sense.
― Tim F, Thursday, 28 January 2016 11:47 (eight years ago) link
This has that diaphanous hologramic quality of Swain-Jolley produced stuff like Imagination and early Bananarama.

OH MY GOD, the climax of "oh please"
― cher guevara (lex pretend), Thursday, 28 January 2016 11:54 (eight years ago) link
overwhelming tbh
― cher guevara (lex pretend), Thursday, 28 January 2016 11:55 (eight years ago) link
great record
― nxd, Thursday, 28 January 2016 11:59 (eight years ago) link
the most beautiful music ever made
― Tim F, Thursday, 28 January 2016 12:12 (eight years ago) link
I knew that hearing so many of their songs together at the same time would be overwhelming but maybe not this overwhelming?
My housemate arrived home as I was doing the dishes to "Supernatural" and without even saying hello to me exclaimed "what is THIS?"
― art baengels (monotony), Thursday, 28 January 2016 12:19 (eight years ago) link
Love Song becomes this unbelievable thing without you noticing
― ZESTY O'PRIDE (imago), Thursday, 28 January 2016 14:19 (eight years ago) link
im waiting on two things itt, once all the flowers have been laid at their feet: 1) notorious contrarian crank al shipley, and 2) whether or not ppl think they surpassed their last release
― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Thursday, 28 January 2016 15:00 (eight years ago) link
their last release?
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 January 2016 15:03 (eight years ago) link
derp their debut
― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Thursday, 28 January 2016 15:08 (eight years ago) link
i'm not the expert here pal but doesn't their debut show up here in its entirety, in lush extended-mix form, segueing into the other songs? if that isn't surpassed idk what is
― ZESTY O'PRIDE (imago), Thursday, 28 January 2016 15:09 (eight years ago) link
^^^^ yeah this is why i was confused
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 January 2016 15:10 (eight years ago) link
no im saying 'derp their debut' as in, derp this is their debut, i was thinking the old singles had been compiled somewhere but apparently not
― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Thursday, 28 January 2016 15:10 (eight years ago) link
ahhhh
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Thursday, 28 January 2016 15:11 (eight years ago) link
i assumed there was more to the catalog i wasnt familiar w/ but apparently i knew their shit better than i thought :(
