I would love to hear full band versions of songs with a similar sound and setup.

[jusswerjk]

Yuss!! Just scored one on eBay for $20 plus shipping. Keep checking, guys.

Btw, can someone pm me the official download? Would love to hear this sooner than later. Thanks!

[Avey Pear]

pm please, my gents. had to eBay this sucker and can't wait for it to get here

[Sam]

Listening to my copy now, very pleased with the pressing!

Sounds great and 180gm was a pleasant surprise. Songs are fantastic too.

[griff_doge]

I'm just hearing what they do naturally. It' refreshing mainly because we haven't heard it in awhile and it's comfy in nostalgia. I don't think it has much to do with Sleep Cycle other than that it was made by members of the same group. It sounds like campfire songs if Avey kicked Panda off the porch and said to Geo, "Forget the minidiscs, let's jam!!!!"

EDIT: Can anyone crunchitize the offcl DL things plzzz? Waiting on my record...

[ell]

Looking for a crunch on the dl code, can't wait!! So stoked

[hybrination]

i dig this, would love a crunch as well, im hoping they put it up on their site to buy, I couldn't make it out to record stores yesterday

What took him so long am I right fellas

[hunkswithguns]

Gonna pop on some headphones and wander around nature for my first listen tonight

[rohcti]

I'm liking this more and more. I will be honest, I was somewhat disappointed the only straightforward song is Man of Oil, but a few listens through it convinced me this recording is special. The subtle details, especially Geo's parts, really blossom the more you listen

Put together a few images from their Instagram with their tracks

That's sweet! Not worth the $53 for me though

[trillstone]

Would someone please be so kind as to PM me a link?

$53?! That's some expensive shipping dude! I am really liking this album but definitely not worth that to be honest...

Guys, I am falling in absolute love with Selection of a Place...you can tell Avey feels so at home in nature and has this yearning to just forget everything back home, but he simply can't, which is why I feel the main line in the pre-chorus or whatever you want to call it is "Wish that I could wake up". Wanting to forget all the work back home, all the contact he has with everyone on his cellular device, and just being in that moment. So beautiful man, such a good song.

[time4sumranch]

could any one send a link to their favorite ranch dressing

[Texas Trill]

I only paid $28, shipping included, so idk why they're charging that much for shipping...

[deadwall]

yea, im in SF and its coming up as 52.88 after shipping, ugh, probably will not grab and will regret later

love that photo so much.
should've been the cover. <3

[roopn]

avey's voice is so pure on this. melodies as good as he's ever written. So comforting
I want to wrap myself in the Man of Oil blanket and float on the Blue Noses lake

[d-arthur]

could anyone crunchitize me with official download please please please ??

[Hash]

is it just me, or is "Selection of a Place" just a glimpse at hard work's face?

[Hash]

I just sent a link to hybrination, trillstone, d-arthur, time4sumranch, ell, Avey Pear, jusswerjk, griff_doge, ingenue, thatsweetboy, and false9.

Sorry if I missed someone!

[sound science]

Is there a version of the cover out there without the RSD watermark?

EDIT: Found this on the mp3 download page:

[roopn]

here's a high res version from the download

[trombone dixie]

wow this is so powerful and emotional, wish all the songs where longer, I think I can hear man of oil all day. fantastic jobs guys

[Enn Eye]

U know they both got those bucket hats on in all the photos, we'll never know who is on the cover!
Geo +1

[sound science]

Btw, was anyone else surprised to find that this wasn't a 10" after all, but actually 12"?

Victor sent me the vinyl rip, but I'd like the official DL if you have it.

ty!!!

[jusswerjk]

Discogs has got one for $24.99 right now. Someone grab it!

[yoko bono]

i am only on my second listen so perhaps i'm judging prematurely, but i'm kinda disappointed by this. i was probably a little too excited for this. i was hoping for stronger use of electronics and field recording and less avey singing and playing guitar.

[awesome]

Can i get a pm? been really looking forward to this

thanks

[Dallou]

loving this more and more. Listening right now after soccer pratice, I am so tired and this album fits perfectly for this feeling/moment

You're not alone with that. It doesn't help that avey's vocals are mixed really high for Man of Oil and Selection.

[clearwaters]

Is there any info on any other versions of Selection of a Place? Seems odd that they would say (rio negro version) without the intention of teasing us of other versions... mayhaps there is another version in Coral Orgy?
