  1. BACKED. Also, I think this sounds fantastic both on headphones and through my nice speakers at home. Excellent mixing job.
     
  2. I haven’t gotten into anything since The Upsides, will I like this one?

    relentlessly nosy bastard

    I mean it's worth trying
     
  4. I definitely will.
     
  5. I think I’ve listened through this more times in 24 hours than I have NCTH since it’s release

    This got better as it went on. I like it more than I expected to. Definitely their most interesting songwriting and I'm glad they seem to have committed more strongly to incorporating new elements. I dunno how much I'll find myself coming back to it, but I think it's a good effort. Favorite track is probably "When the Blue Finally Came".

    The Ocean is definitely up there with ANIN for their best closer

    Funeral is still their best closer by far imo.

    Kinda random but whatever happened to Thomas? Why does he have next to no presence on this site anymore?

    Just had my second listen there. Some of the riffs on this are huge.

    I actually felt like I was on a boat during the closer the guitar line has that kind of sea shanty tune. Or maybe I'm just tripping cause of lack of sleep.

    We reach for the longest shadow

    I was busy doing yard work listening to this in crappy Bluetooth headphones and driving around in a car that uses a Bluetooth FM transmitter today, so I can’t comment on production, but I listened through this 4-5 times and it breezed by in a good way. I really don’t think I listened to NCTH that many times all the way through. I am sold completely on this.

    I love this record in the limited time I have spent with it. With that being said, I have such a hard time hearing all the people saying they never really got into NCTH, I just love it so much. What has made TWY my favorite band is that I have loved each and every one of their albums as it came out. Glad it won't stop with this one.

    I’d say Pyramids of Salt is pretty easily my least favorite on this
