[Ethmin]

Okay so Cherokee is a stone cold masterpiece

Vinyl rip did not do it justice

[mrlucrative]

can someone send me the digital bird?

[dervish]

I avoided all 4 singles and every boot (minus the music box ones from way back)

Almost made it to Friday but Domino is gonna Domino. My body is ready - see y'all on the other side...

[scrambledgreggs]

I'm taking this puppy on a walk through the arboretum as a first listen

this is one time when I'm especially glad to be working from home!

omg im so interested in what u think and excited for u

[meys]

i thought i was taking the L by listening to the vinyl rip but the first listen in full FLAC on monitors in my studio was still just as magical holy crap. a lot of little gifts revealing themselves

[MFpotus]

Hey can I get the new bird. My download code is still just the singles

[Royal and Desire]

320 bird!? Oh boy

[Stan]

WAV

[Me Tiger]

yeah, I like dragon and car keys so much more now in hq! they sound solid now.


my top songs are: cherokee, strung and royal.

then there are dragon, prester and car keys, which are very good. well in fact they’re close to my top songs.

and finally passer-by, walker and we go back are just good. not like ‘ok songs’ but I really enjoy them too.

[Royal and Desire]

Wow listening to the HQ bird is like seeing colors for the first time

[Slippi's Applesauce]

that cherokee breakdown is incredible in HQ. I know some people were bummed that deak doesn't do the "stoop that you looOOOVE" like he does at the end live but if you listen closely avey is doing it in an autotuned falsetto throughout

[lhtd]

ill take a digital freeboard too! pls and ty!

edit: thanks!

it is an auto-tuned mother fucking vocal.

It's still subtle no doubt, but it's there enough for you to follow that melodic line and it's partly doubled on the xylophone or whatever. You can hear it very best on the first 'stoops' couplet, when it drops out. Sounds like this, but auto tuned and like someone who can sing falsetto:

I feel like they included this as a secret gift to the OG Cherokee nutters

Just posted as extra guidance to identify it. Not saying hey I already sad that or something. X

[Royal and Desire]

Dragon Slayer just unfolds it's wonder in HQ, that vinyl rip gave me such an overstuffed impression but oh no wait this is delicious

[blindmowing]

Royals in HQ, what the fuck all those tiny ethereal sounds

i'm addicted to all the little voices popping out of the the corners of "We Go Back"

[Pineapple_mage]

Car Keys outro is insane in full quality, so much going on and everything is so textured and detailed

[awesome]

vinyl rip to this HQ one like going from 480p to 4k, so good

Yeah please write up your impressions

[Tropic]

Stan, I await your message

[destiny]

I can hear it. I can fucking hear it. Oh god the dragon slayer synth.

[Royal and Desire]

Oh my god that little WHAP from Avey before the verse kicks back in at around 2:13 is so funny but also just adds so much character in Dragon Salyer

There are so many wonderful little details, I thought this song was just above alright but now I'm loving the hell out of it

[dio]

Let it doth be writ: The Skiffs of Time Long-player hath freebirded in vinyl-rip quality from Sir Stan's ye olde Crosley and now.... On Ground Hog Day (ya thats right, u non NA CA-ers), the true quality mp3s/wavs hath been unleashed. A mere 2 days before its official due date.

On 2/2/22, the Skiffs have been unmoored. Look at them go~

[unrecordednight]

so if that guy's domino code worked, does that mean all domino codes work aka can i buy this digitally on domino's page now?

[destiny]

Yeah dragon slayer chorus. It's just... holy shit

Doubleposting isn't a cardinal sin here either right? He goes YAAAHH at 0:52 as well. It's cracking me up

[zak]

I HEAR IT

the boys have got to be extremely proud of this record. gorgeous production

[meys]

please animal collective may i have "time skiffs 2: the legend of curly's gold" now

No worries, glad to know I wasn't hearing things. I know the pain of making a cool discovery and getting buried in a sea of posts all too well so, as you say, cheers

[destiny]

This albums sound design is just fucking OD. Holy shit. Somehow the simpler song structures theres still a plethora of shit going on. It's mixed so well. The breakdown of Car Keys. This is something they haven't done in a while. It really gives me Chores breakdown if I had to compare. They're pumping the brakes. I had a postulation listening to the vinyl rip that this albums sound design was gonna be next level but i couldnt speak on it just yet.

i don't think so, seems like just the codes that come with the vinyl are working; directly-purchased downloads (e.g. that are included on the order page for physical purhcaes) don't seem to be up yet

I can only apologise...

I hope I at least pointed in the right direction!

[destiny]

It's been a fucking ride. Homies, buoys, Eucalyptus, Cows, sleep cycle. Geo making his own samples on PW and Land of the fucking sky. Mothlight Avey. It all points towards this. Retroactively it makes sense. Like person pitch -> MPP. The guys move in different directions but all in one unit.
