I'm going to fucking cry. Vertical is so much more beautiful than that vocaroo would have you believe.

I genuinely choked up.

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 7:56 am

I actually think that The Burglars and Vertical might be my favorite tracks! Although I heard the vocaroos multiple times so they've probably grown on me already.

That's good, the same thing will probably happen for the other tracks as well!

definitely sounds like future music.

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 9:21 am

i dont usually fuk with this kind f thing but i listend to small part of each sample..

sounds fucking sweet... feel like the whole vibe of the album has this weird sounding but poppy feeling im into... kinda like reverb-less mpp. and ya i hear 3 songs that sound like evolutions of boys latin (least fave song on pbvsgr but its cool)

this better freakin freebird soon... guys wouldnt want us to be hearing samples lol

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 9:30 am

but like better than boys latin. lol this shit is gonnabe sick. vertical sounds amazing...lying in the grass holy shit, cant even deal. is floridada the tamest song?

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 9:34 am

heard aphex esque drums... actual dance beats... ya maybe some owl city lol...vaguely pc music sounding stuff

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 9:58 am

The samples aren't loading for me.

Tell me someone has them.

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 10:06 am

Hm, yep no more samples. This is a good thing, I was already getting dangerously close to overplaying some of them.

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 10:16 am

owl city has always reminded me of ac what r u guys taliking about
"planet eaarrthh turrnnss slowwwllyyy its hard 2 say id rather stay awake when im asleep" that part of whatever song that is is such an ac melody but totally melted down into a really accessible pop chorus

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 10:52 am

god, I hope they get eric wareheim to direct a video.

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 10:57 am

Yep looks like they took them down. I listened once through and don't really regret it. Sounded pretty freakin great. I've listened to Floridada waaaay too many times already and having heard these makes the wait both more and less painful. Fingers crossed for a Christmas freebird again, best present ever.

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 11:20 am

so they are all new songs? nothing from the avey down there shows or old ac tracks?

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 11:29 am

Nope not unless Recycling is something heavily reworked. The sample was instrumental. Would make sense I guess lol but I really doubt it.

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 11:37 am

cool thanks, kinda glad they took it down..

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 12:16 pm

Did anyone rip the previews? I'd only listen once I promise.

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 12:41 pm

I missed it as well.

EDIT: I'm not that sad when I think about, listening to the snippets would kind of ruin the surprise. I wanna listen to this album and not know what comes next.

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 1:42 pm

Dang, I also missed it but that's probably for the best. Is it normal for Amazon to receive mp3s for an album 2.5 months in advance? Probably a long shot but i can't help but wonder if an early digital release is possible.

I'd love to hear any more descriptions from those that got to hear the clips, if anyone has more to share

The Boys Latin comparisons excite me, especially if it's lots of Avey/Panda back and forth. Were there any clips that didn't have *both* Avey and Panda vocally present (besides Recycling), out of curiosity?

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 2:03 pm

I missed the snippets, thankfully. I wouldn't have been able to resist.

To those that heard them, I'm curious if the "every song is Boys Latin" thing is more than just referencing the vocal trade-offs. Like, why not "every song is Guys Eyes"?

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 2:08 pm

less about the trade-offs and more that a lot of the songs (4 - 5?) used the same specific chopped repeated vocal trick.

(we, we, don't, don't, have, have, a, a, sec, sec, etc, etc)

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 2:12 pm

I don't think so, still sounded like avey and panda trading off for most of the snippets (though in a way that still sounds like boys latin more than guys eyes)
only 1 or 2 of the panda songs seemed to have that delay effect
but we will see when the album comes out/freebirds

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 2:53 pm

haven't read the last couple of pages, kinda bummed about the snippets being out there but no biggie. Gonna stay out of this thread til it freebirds

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 3:02 pm

Can someone send me a rip of the clips? I missed it

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 3:12 pm

I missed them also. I can't help but think we will have this by the end of the month.

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 3:20 pm

I didn't hear the Amazon snippets, but the bathroom recordings of that song that repeats "THE PARKING LOT, THE PARKING LOT" has been stuck in my head all week

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 3:21 pm

Missed this,,, glad

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 3:25 pm

oohhh okay so Amazon took down the snippets?

Spoiler: show

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 3:27 pm

anybody recorded?

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 3:29 pm

Sorta feels like this is gonna freebird waaay early

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 3:45 pm

haha, I'm glad they got taken down.

I was wondering how I would resist, I also wanna go in fresh

All I read in the last few pages was that it sounds like Boys Latin. I really like Boys Latin sooooo : )

dud · Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 3:50 pm

FUCK i'm really pissed i missed these clips

got so excited and then let down

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 3:52 pm

It seemed like about half of the songs in the snippets had that boys latin vocal technique. Except it was like a way more advanced version of it, much faster and with more intricate melodies. Some of it reminded me more of the kind of vocal interplay you'd hear on dirty projectors albums rather than boys latin specifically. A lot of them sounded like it was avey and panda going back and forth but it was hard to tell tbh.

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 3:55 pm

I'm fine with lots of hocketing as long it isn't overplayed, which I doubt it will be. I do wonder how this album is gonna translate to a live setting though. FloriDada alone seems like it would be fairly difficult to pull off.

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 4:04 pm

vocal tradeoffs: the album

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 4:38 pm

feel like this album may be "samey" but in a good way

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 4:39 pm

So, they might include a lyrics booklet this time, right? I mean, if they're putting them on youtube.

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 4:41 pm

mod edit: link removed

Moderation bro's

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 4:46 pm

if people want the samples they can pm Poesidon

inb4: pm me please flood

Post **Posted:** Thu Dec 03, 2015 4:46 pm

Also yeah there are a few songs that sound "samey" but not in a horrible, unimaginative way. All of these songs seem to punch really hard, and there don't seem to be any filler songs (which AnCo has never done). Only thing I am wary of is that it seems to be more of a collection of great pop songs, rather than a continuous album. That's just be me getting hung up on old AnCo though, which we all should try to avoid. This is a completely new approach for AnCo.
