Circa Survive - The Amulet (September 22, 2017) Album • Page 106

and also, there's still more than 1/12 of the year left.

 

I'm a recovering heroin and other substances addict and yeah I've hurt people but it's not even close to what's going on with sexual assault in the community, which wasn't what was said but kind of implied

 

You could copy and paste this in the Kevin Devine thread as well

 

That would require me to post in the Kevin Devine thread no thanks

 

I will be at the show tonight. Philly Chorus friends, get at me

 

Has anyone itt done the VIP stuff on this tour? If so, when did you get the email that told you what time to get to the venue and whatnot? I haven’t gotten anything yet, and my show is a week from Sunday.

 

I didn't do VIP this time around, but I've done them twice before and I'm pretty sure I got my email within the week before my show

 

Cool. I’ll probably try to email ShowStubs if I don’t hear anything by Wednesday. Thanks! Enjoy the show tonight!

 

James coming out and losing his mind on stage during Premonition Of The Hex is easily the highlight of the night

 

Totally. Is it just me or did it feel a few songs too short? Like we definitely should have heard the title track from this record and another one. Seemed weird.

 

They used to play 15 songs earlier on the tour and Thrice used to play 17. Now they're both playing 13 and 15 respectively. My guess is they used to be playing for 1:15, but now they're only playing for just an hour.

 

Damnnnn that sucks for y'all. Sorry. They didn't even get to play Amulet?

 

Here was their setlist last night as the closing band:

Child Of The Desert
Glass Arrows
Lustration
Strange Terrain
Sharp Practice
Rites Of Investiture
Tunnel Vision
In Fear And Faith
Stop The Fuckin' Car
Premonition Of The Hex
Frozen Creek
The Difference Between...
Get Out

 

I'm going again tonight so I'm excited to see how they switch it up. Would love to see At Night, Flesh And Bone, and/or The Amulet.

 

Have they been switching up the setlist each night?

 

I really want to go tonight but $40 is a lot

 

tonight tonight

 

According to setlist.fm they have been. They should be switching it up tonight

 

its funny reading my old posts when i initially got the press stream for this album. its grown on me a lot since then.

Circa Survive are the kind of band that could keep releasing these kinds of albums for another 10 years and id be fine with it

 

I feel like since they're not a band that necessarily makes BIG changes every album the first impressions can be hard to go by, since it takes longer than a handful of listens to really find where a new album sits among their other albums and the ways in which it stands out. I'm not saying that they don't push themselves artistically because they definitely do, but I think they're one of those artists where first impressions can be deceiving (I've had this problem too).

 

If I'm totally honest with myself, I think now that some of the novelty wore off, The Amulet lands squarely at #4 for me... a hair below BSN.

Not sure why it doesn't blow me away quite like it did the rest of the "Juturna/OLG forever" crowd here. It's really good, but I moved on from it after a few weeks and only about half the tracklist still interests me a lot. Production definitely doesn't help.

Still fantastic for LP6 from any band, though.

 

Bsn is so clearly this bands low point and it's not even close.

 

as often as you post this i feel like youre trying to convince yourself of this moreso than the rest of us lol
