February. Stop. I can't take much more of this.

-
oh yeah i heard about this a few days ago.
stoked.
feburary is gonna be ace.
-
There is also a download link to the first single from the album on that page, which is currently blowing my tits off.
-
i am no longer stoked.
honestly that song fucking sucked. the vocals fucking ruined it.
-
new High on Fire album also coming out in February. not sure if you care but I certainly do
-
As Sean said already, the new song leaves a little to be desired.
-
I thought the vocals were a bit strained, but other than that I thought it was excellent. I'm gonna have to hear the rest of the album before I make a judgment however, as there was a tiny hint of a direction in the song that would be pretty terrible if explored fully.
-
Man I wonder what Attack Attack! is doing in February.
-
Your sister.
-
That would be pretty odd considering she's married and having her second kid in a month or two.
-
You think that would matter to them?
-
i tried to listen to this again.
it literally sounds nothing like the efterklang i know and love. all the electronic beeps and squiggles are gone. the best part about efterklang was their awesome interplay with electronic beats and the sort of orchestral arangement surrounding the softly whispered vocals.
this song is not efterklang. not at all. i dont know what the fuck happened. there is no way this is the same band that put out tripper and parades.
-
Actually I have to agree - but that's the same way I felt when I heard the new Mew album
Btw doesn't it sound a bit like Grizzly Bear?
-
Maybe there's a correlation in this, as I love both Grizzly Bear and the new Mew album, and the more I listen to Modern Drift, the more it grows on me. Really, it's NOT all that different from the more overtly orchestral pop moments on Parades. The official band website even indicates that they consider this album to be a "new Efterklang", so if you're absolutely hating it already, it's probably only going to get worse.

Hey there.
-
Yeah this thread is now about the new HoF album.
Any more details? Who's recording the dang ole thing?
-
What the fuck it's Greg Fidelman (dude who engineered Death Magnetic) what the fuck nooooo
-
also he worked on californication now I look him up, which is supposed to be one of the worst produced albums ever.
-
I met Matt from HoF about a month ago. He seemed pretty cool, though he had just split his nose open and was bleeding after suffering a tragic mishap while tying to watch his girlfriend pee.
He was trying to get some vodka to stop the bleeding and of course I told him "You know that's only going to make it worse, right? It won't actually do a thing to stop it."
"Yeah, I know" he said "I really just wanted some vodka."
I know that this has nothing to do with who is recording the new HoF album, but c'mon... He split his nose open trying to watch his girlfriend tinkle. That's funny.
-
Every single story I have heard that begins with "I met Matt Pike once..." involves him doing something perverted or sleazy. Yeah
