"This is not a download link"

Nothing happening tomorrow is cool with me though because it's pancake Tuesday. In fact it's pancake Tuesday right now technically and if I was so inclined I oculd waltz right up to the kitchen and get flipping, freebird or no Goddamnit

every day is pancake tuesday somewhere

Pancakes, yum, what's better than pancakes... Double stack of pancakes.

They have to be mailing copies really soon if they're going to have them in everyone's hands on the 19th...

They never get anything to Australia in time for the release date

what the fuck is wrong with this album!!!!!! since when is Domino the fort knox of the music world???
when an album freebirds too early it makes me sad, but it's like almost 10 days away and no sign of flinching!

I feel like they limited the early releases and implored those copy recipients to be decent peeps and maybe dangled the loss of some awesome future swag/experiences over their heads.

This feels like the dawn of Animal Collective for the "rest of the world" to me, and I see them wanting to protect the release AMAP.

No BB or Fireworks this tour I guess...bummer
Had a feeling about a Moonjock rework before I even read that article
Avey said he digs that tune a lot

considering their state of mind this time around, i'm hoping to hear a lot of shorter, punchier songs from the discography this tour...

grass, honeycomb, water curses, who could win a rabbit, derek would be so cool to hear

Amazon samples ruined me.

I called Waterloo Records in Austin and asked if they had a pre-release copy I could peep w/ staff, and the gal said to check back on Friday. I don't think she understood what I was asking.

im in Austin too so if you hear something, say something

I'm on top of Waterloo on What(dotceedee) and will be (one of) the first to report if either source produces any jam(s).

Fickle Cycle too!

I wonder if they'll reincarnate Water Curses with all new samples and rejuvenated energy for this tour...

I'm keeping my fingers crossed. It's the perfect song for this era AC.

I wholeheartedly agreee
Altho I am going to do my best to abstain from any spoilers once the tour starts
Prob not gonna listen to the next single either
I'm ready for this album in full form
Fully enjoying the interviews and album reviews

Yesterday me and my buddy dropped acid and went for a hike. Up at the peak was a big mud puddle next to a little rock wall.
I got this whole caveman proto-art vibe being up their in the mountains so I put on the first two singles and jumped into the primordial goop pit.
I spent a good amount of time flinging mud at the rock wall with a stick and smearing it into lines and shapes.
It felt like I kinda understood how AC is moving backwards, shedding its ambience and reverb for something much more raw and in-your-face.. And how doing so in the right way could create something more colorful and inspired then they ever have before.
Anyway, tripped acid in the mountains, became a caveman, my body is now beyond ready for this album

and then i laughed at this picture for like an hour

Pitchfork: Are you guys exhausted now?

All: No.

:deakweep:

a little bird told me the boys have something pretty neat in the works if they can make it happen.

Or some street flash oooh .....

Would be sweet if Josh sitting down with the rest of the band was an indication that he'd be joining them this tour

if they added deakin's solo act as an additional opener this tour i'd die

*side question* Does ANYONE have a extra ticket (or two) for the Chicago show to sell?

oh here, let me direct you to the live subform

This must be the first time in 11 years BD, GGD, and AC released an album in the same year.

GGD?! How?! When?! YEEEEES!

Some guy on atease just pointed out that it's national bagel day today.

Would be a good time to drop a single, maybe vertical or hocus pocus.

If only there was some kind of bagel-related song they could release.

Think about how good that spin of Floridada is gonna taste when you're listening to it knowing that you get to hear the whole album after

Especially on vinyl (not to be an LP-snob) but to watch the thing spin and there still be SO MANY grooves for that needle to dig through. Goddamn new music is so so so exciting.

Derek! yesssssss!

and man, that stupid LITG email promo tripped me out..

Here's a challenge, do I download this album from domino as soon as it comes out or do I wait for the lp to make its way to me? It could be over a week's wait so I reckon the download is what's going to happen. Nice sort of romantic idea though to wait for the record to arrive for the first listen

If you promise to wait I'll promise to wait too.

You could make them both separate experiences. Listening to the download first, I think listening to the vinyl after is still an exciting experience to anticipate.

will page 190 be the new page 160?

What if 190-200 was just pure junk posts within 10 minutes? People would lose their minds.

I miss the CHz rollout... 4 weeks of late night jams... all planned out too, so I could gather my buddies and drink beer and smoke weed and not sit around wondering when something was going to happen...
