All the Clubs are Broken?? What dis??

the short medieval kinks-y of montreal-y song ig

The tracklist in reverse actually seems closer to what I would’ve predicted before knowing Soul Capturer was the opener

this is just absurd but they'll make it work somehow

hoooooooly fuck

DAMN.-type reverse tracklist special edition incoming

Far left hand side, halfway up: anybody else see a panda bear face in that?

lets gooooo thats a crazy tracklist
I wonder how long this album will be lol

i think it's already been confirmed to be 64 minutes

someone called the closer their most understated since whaddit i done. i can see that and can get behind the comparison

cover pairs well with the fabric bits included in Time Skiffs, i dig it

highest resolution from instagram - front cover, back cover

love it. surprised they shared this without any sort of preorder or updates to myanimalhome or isntitnow.com. was that website literally just for us to find haha

so defeat WAS on side c after all, just not in the same track slot # that hellomark guessed

cover is really beautiful, love the color palette, very understated but still full of detail

is that an apostrophe in the word "king's"?

AMAZING COVER -- so much like what i was hoping for -- could've done without the solid coloured construction paper rectangles, seems to stick out too much, but that's just nit picking -- love all the floral stuff -- i like the back cover more

tracklist is bonkers, so so bonkers, and i can't even comprehend it yet -- so many "odd" choices

Crazy how my longstanding og prediction had the opener and closer swapped
Interested to see how this tracklist is gonna work
Not gonna say I love the cover, but I really don't think that matters, really dig the colour pallette though.

Where’d you see this?

Defeat being in the middle of the album is strange but I trust them. I definitely see kings as a closer. This tracklist is STACKED. What a massive album this is gonna be

I remember saying a couple years back I couldn't see 'crack open another beer' and Defeat being on the same album and now they're beside each other in the middle of it

pretty cool to see the longest tracks front loaded on the record. no sleep until isn't it now.

curious how the vinyl will break down.....

A1 Soul Capturer
A2 Genies Open

B1 Broke Zodiac
B2 Magicians From Baltimore

C1 Defeat

D1 Gem & I

twist them off and pass them round -> crack open another beer... there better be a Deakin lyric about having a cold beer on the lake

Gotta be this, yeah. All the tracks after Defeat are relatively short.

That’s a good comparison. Kind of a “only need to listen to it once maybe twice” track for me, helps it’s at the end of the album, otherwise it’d be “next track.”

Tracklist thoughts...

-- Defeat as true CENTERPIECE. I like the levity of following it up with Gem & I

-- I feel like tracks 2-4 were predicted as 1-3 more than a few times...Soul Cap starting it off threw our predictions off there, but that 3-track run makes sense

-- Magicians back to back with Defeat is MASSIVE

-- Stride Rite placement was pretty much what we were expecting

-- Kings as closer is super weird...more like an addendum to the story... the album's coda

that's definitely it. i think it was deakin who said they could barely fit defeat on one side of vinyl. 22 is the industry-accepted limit before quality starts really suffering

Is Kings a Panda song which Avey wrote lyrics to sing over top of the harmonies?

no, avey arranged the harmonies

9-song ac albums —— Feels, SJ, TS, and now IiN?

watch as gems they're holding fall -> gem & and i

brilliant

Seconding this. This kings placement never occurred to me. But I like it. Tracks 1-5 are huuuuuge.
