Knuckle Puck - Shapeshifter (October 13, 2017) Album • Page 3

Also, the fact that both Zac and Drew are backing the album are getting me v hype

 

A few thoughts

- the album is incredibly strong and a huge step up from Copacetic
- Double Helix reminds me of vintage Hidden In Plain View
- the second half of this album is very good and contains most of Shapeshifter's best songs - such as Want Me Around and the incredible closer Plastic Brains but my favorite is Conduit

 

That is absolutely fantastic to hear. Do you feel like they capitalized more fully on the things that made them interesting on the first album (the 3/4 chorus in Swing, extended outro of True Concrete and Untitled, the blast beat in Pretense, etc.)?

Also, what kind of vibe are they going for on this one?

EDIT: Only if you're able to talk about it!

 

Sounds awesome. Can't wait to hear it.

 

Their closers have always been some of their best songs.

Woodwork, No Good, Bedford Falls, Untitled...

 

"Double Helix" coming soon. iTunes has the runtime up and the band has been tweeting lyrics recently.

 

Reminds me of classic HIPV

 

I said this before but: this is very good to hear.

 

IF I COULD TAKE YOUR PAIN AWAY
I WOOOD BLEED 4 U

 

Life In Dreaming from HIPV is a great album.

 

One of the all-time best from the "scene"

 

Life is Dreaming sounds a bit dated but man this is good stuff! I listened before but now I'm really paying attention

 

yellow is my fav color

: )

 

New song on Wednesday

 

Going head to head with new The Story So Far on Wednesday. Tumblr is going to explode

 

Double Helix is streaming/on iTunes

 

Really really digging this one

 

What ever happened to them? Last I heard they were writing an ep/album.

 

Also new song is really good. Wish more bands had duel vocals these days!

 

No clue. They released that 3 song EP in 2015 but other than that I haven't heard anything about them.

 

A song about DNA!

I like it. Still hate the snare/production.

 

I really like the new song, but am I alone in feeling that this song being released on its own as a single just feels like Copacetic Pt. 2? maybe it's just been too long since I've listened to that album, but that's my first impression.

that said, I'm still fucking stoked for this album! love me some Knuckle Puck.

 

Really like the track

 

Not alone at all. Both of these singles just aren't cutting it for me. I feel like I've already heard both of them before. The chorus of Double Helix is almost identical in sonic structure to Disdain with a different vocal melody over it.

Hoping the rest of the record surprises me.
