foxtrot, i think you should change the title of this thread to "the album that doesn't have "defeat," but it'll probably still be pretty good"

Ha!

This whole time people have been saying "I think we can dafely change the thread title now" and I was sitting here thinking "yeh, good idea" not realising that I had started this thread

I'm on it.


Also, love all the wife/partner stories! So many memories attached to this band.

All youse guys whose wife is saying AC are a joke maybe need to rethink your priorities. I once broke off an engagement two days after my fiancée said AC were shit and last I heard she was happily married with two kids so who's shit now?

Funniest thing I've read in a while

I dare any one of you cowards to prove to me that this thing isn't called Lizard Tits Pow

[foxtrot]

I don't understand. It is, isn't it?

[jerry wonder]

It's unfortunate that Defeat will not be on the album--such a great song

and not sure about how I feel about the title 'soil little capture on the grooooouuuuuuund'

here's to tomorrow!

Genuine question. What’s the point of listening to boots? I get hearing a song 1 time during a performance, but wouldn’t listening to all boots in order of the track list ruin the final album experience?

I think it does,but everyone is different. I'm trying to abstain but sometimes it's hard. Sometimes the "journey" is more fun than the "destination." So nothing against those that cave. I listened to Broke Zodiac the other day which is the only boot I've played in the past few months. just trying to not overplay the live versions because I feel like these songs have been simmering so long that my expectations are sky high and the studio versions may not deliver. But in the end it really doesn't matter much in overall enjoyment

listening to almost every boot from the pre-CHz shows kinda ruined that album for me so I mostly abstained this time around (saw them once on the last tour which was the first time I had heard most of these songs). that was the opposite experience of being a big MPP song boot listener and then the album blew pretty much all the boots out of the water.

I've listened to the Music Box Defeat since then, and while I think I kinda prefer it to the final product (which I also love), I almost think of them as different songs.

the album is very good so I don't think anyone needs to worry about anything.

[Hellomark]

Willie do you have a favorite track on the album?

[Fovrodi]

Fuck that question, is Defeat on the album or not Willie?!?!?!

[AxeWorld]

Alright, it's been wednesday for almost 3 hours now, WHERE'S THE SOUL CAP

[foxtrot]

It's been Wednesday in Australia for 11 hours and I have checked at least 46 times to see if it's been released yet.

Ha! That’s awesome.

My wife is subjected to a lot of AC (and other stuff). She’d know it was them without question whether she likes the song or not. Long suffering!

At least your wife puts up with it. My partner does not allow me to play Anco with her around. She hates their music for some strange reason I'll never understand. Not to be offensive but she says "it sounds like it's made by mentally handicapped people!" And I'm like "...and your point is??"

that's a horrible thing to say

[Fovrodi]

Give it 3 hours?

Real story is I played Defeat for two friends and my wife on the car ride home from seeing Beyoncé, wife and one friend fell asleep, the other remarked “wow, that was a journey”

He gets it

[wilandhugs]

Wait this thing is probably gonna be like a 10/11 am EST tho right? I remember waiting for PJ to drop and it came at like 11 am

[NightlifeMingus]

the other week my friend and i played defeat for our girlfriends while we were playing cards. after it ended my girlfriend told me “you need to learn how to read the room”. jokes on her: I read the room just fine, I knew it was gonna go over like a lead balloon

That’s my prediction too… though I thought PJ dropped at 10Est? I remember listening before work started for me (11est)

Kinda becoming a trend for songs to show up on streaming at midnight before the official announcement so hoping we could only be a few hours away….but most likely we are 12 hrs away

Bathroom flacs from the capitol, can’t wait

Argh!

Binging AC hard these last few days to try and ease the wait.

I'm going to have to be very disciplined when this drops so I don't play it out before the album arrives.

one listen for me, thats it

on the topic, i guess i've played AC enough for my wife that when i play Feels she thinks it's normal enough that when her very conservative rural midwest parents come over, she says "play Feels i think they'd like it"

Conservative rural guy here, love Feels, was my first album. Love all AnCo albums. It's just good vibes.

Yes

Brilliant lol thank u

[memememe]

this board is like, way too close to Defeat and probably a sticking point and main discourse of the average listener of this album is gonna be "there is an over indulgent 22 minute song smack dab in the middle" (that the average listener will either end up skipping or flip to side D) ... and they're probably not wrong.

Defeat could probably stand to loseat least 5 minutes, if not more. I mean, I like Defeat, but I think the album could benefit from it NOT being on the album. a brisk & breezy lil 42 minute LP instead of a 64 minute doozy.

goodbye!

Fuck off with the politics. Every time politics comes up on this board it ruins the fun. The “play Feels i think they’d like it” bit is fucking funny. Fuck off we’re having a good time here ol’ sport.

I'll look forward to seeing how the album turns out but I agree. I still think these songs would have been better structured and presented as two EPs. I also understand that would be commercially and promotionally worthless.

[wilandhugs]

ok but who is this guy making an account on CA to talk about his political leanings as relevant to enjoying Feels lol

Fucking funny too. His username translates to Man of Oil. I’m all for AC fans, whatever hole they crawl out from. I’m no gem.

You guys remember Bubbloy or whatever his handle was? I sometimes wonder if he’d survive this era of CA. Dude was pure id. Lots of youngsters on here now with their narrow little minds looking to pounce.
