everyone just put on the album "Recurring" and take a load off. It's all good. no need to get da veins pumpin'. it'll all come in its own time. I've never really understood the prediction game. It's gonna be sew goldilox eeder way.

[snowtire]

Considering all the title inconsistencies it's wild that principe real kept the same title for over two years

[songtungs]

if you haven't heard this EP with a decent pair of headphones you haven't listened to it yet. the beauty is in the small details. if you haven't "got it" yet, i would suggest that. it's genius

The deep pulse and watery shakes and all of those amazing little disorted whips and whaps in all the right places... First I've got Panda right in front of me "There is a song..." then on my right this panda shows up "there is a sound if you..." at which point I notice on my left the majority of little drum variations and a clave type sound. Then it's like a panda puts his hand on my shoulder and from behind and starts "Down below! ooh!"
And this is just how I was interpreting them at the time (which panda is all about with his lyrics, (why he simplifies them)) but each line was almost like a key to hearing the mix, and almost like setting me up for listeing to the full album in the right way.

TL;DR: Untying's vox were my key to hearing how intense the panning is THANK YOU SONIC

! thats the bomb !

ahh this description is so nice. this is exactly how I feel listening to it, there's parts sung all around me and I get swept up in it. most of Noah's music sounds watery and splashy to me, but this one feels windy and breezy and fresh. like before a storm when you're being buffeted by wind and the rain hasn't started yet. I love it a lot.

Just listened to "Down Below" from the Warsaw boot again... it's amazing how this has morphed into Untying The Knot... I just can't wait for the studio treatment of all these songs!

Speaking of perth, i showed TSOP to my cousine and he pointed out that panda sounds kind of like the singer of tame impala on that song.

Ha! This is great.

Is it as good as Bill Hader's Aussie accent?

?'hol de beer?
I got a person pitch nostalgia from that track in that first super close listen^_^
OMFPB there ARE effects on each previous round... Yeah I can easily see how an album could be done just based on these ideas.
Damn u guys must be working with fire because for UTK to knot even be an album cut... means Januhairy will be legend-hairy.
Looking forward to my pot and ur panning.

Give the road a good look over
Then make it golden with your common sense

sorry mr. boom

my "sonic hates bass" comment was meant to be more playful in my head, but i know it probably didn't read that way to anyone now that i think about it...

i was just really enjoying the bass parts in these new songs but felt like i needed to make my own system adjustments to really feel it (not a big deal anyway), and i remembered that the bass was a common complaint when Tomboy came out so my comment was just sort of a reference to that, directed at some of the older users on the board... didn't think you'd read it

either way, not fair to you since i really think you've done an excellent job and have added a whole lot to the projects you've worked on, so sorry about that!

Spoiler: show

maybe panda hates bass...

[JohnsonNoise]

Entirely too excited for this album after bumping the EP nonstop over the past few days. If the production has the same vibe on the album Boys Latin video (single?!?!) is literally going to be earth shattering when it drops same goes for Crosswords (assuming it is a single)

[Miss Amanda Jones]

Im surprised Principe Real made the final track list. It's quite an old track.

But I mean the Person Pitch and Tomboy songs were also old by the time they were eventually released, so it's not unexpected.

I always wondered about that, seeing that the first single was released two years before the album and a lot of the material was played love before that. What was the release of Person Pitch like, given that three and a half of the seven tracks were already out in an official capacity?

Can someone with skills please make a video for Mr Noah using footage from Michael Jackson's "Billy Jean" but warp it and make it trippy. It must exist!

[leaf_dwelling]

Any chance of of these songs see the 10-15 min mark in length? I miss those person pitch extended jams.

Not according to the iTunes preorder tracklist. But some of us think that these might not be the real track lengths.

[rohcti]

I think it's likely those are real now... It's not a double album and a lot of the other 11 songs are a pretty good length. Plus those are the only new songs that weren't posted about on Sonic Boom's photobucket account. Of course, that could mean they are retitles but it's just weird for those specific ones to be the short ones "chosen" by iTunes if it is a mistake and have everything else be true.

edit: also if they were retitles I sort of think Sonic would have hinted as such rather than just choosing Crosswords and Selfish Gene and saying nothing more

[northernchild]

davy jones locker is pretty close to the length of the soft serve rip curl sample, though i'm still hoping it will be a full song.

Personally, I'm hoping Davy Jones' Locker is the 50/50 sample. Noah opened his set with that as an intro to Garage/Crosswords at the Majestic Madison show last month and it was so good.

[StrangeClams]

I just want to see him live again, but as the big drone thing fades out, you hear... "hoot"

^that would be really cool. I usually think of short "songs" like this as novelties. I mean, clearly Noah & Co. can do transitions within the actual songs and make it sound great, so these must be something more, something surprising about these two snippets.

I hope those are the track times, because that makes the album roughly Sung Tongs running time.....the perfect running time

[northernchild]

Damn

i picked up the i'm not/comfy in nautica single at the first anco show i went to (early 06, i believe) and grabbed the rest at stores as time went on. i kind of think at least one was after the record had come out though. the anticipation of singles wasn't near the same as tomboy, as far as i remember, though, at least in music press. i didn't even know what the i'm not/comfy in nautica single was when i bought it, really. i can't remember what it was like on ca around then (2007 or so) either, unfortunately.

If it turns out that the track times really are incorrect, all I can say is I hope Come To Your Senses is just as long as it is right now!
