Copeland - Blushing (February 14, 2019) Album • Page 29

Why am I even on the vinyl preorder page for this....

 

Have I ever steered you wrong?

 

Repeats again... has Teebs ever steered you wrong!!

 

I can’t afford this right now...

 

Welp. There goes $40 on a random Monday evening vinyl impulse buy because I have no control andiwasdoingsodamnwelltoo.

 

I stopped getting notifications for this thread so I’m just here to say that colorless is incredible. I think I have already said that but I thought it was worth saying again.

 

Honestly have a feeling this record will sound incredible on vinyl. All the strings and horns will be great.

 

Yes! What’s your top 5?

 

Finally listening to Ixora again after trying in 2015, disjointed and chiromancer are absolutely incredible and the programming on this is out of this world. Not 100% connecting with the melodies but I’m def gonna spin it more.

And then blushing Friday so ayyy

 

And then there's "Erase" with all the tear-inducing lyrics...

 

Erase is def a top 5 Copeland song

 

“You’re still a breeze upon my skin. Close my eyes, breathe you in...” that moment gets me no matter how often I play it

 

That whole verse is huge for me, too.

"But you didn’t know my name, now I.../I can’t help this awful feeling that I can’t erase you..."

 

Erase is THE Copeland song





and all of Blushing is just about as good sheesh

 

Definitely not ready to say Blushing tops Ixora and not sure I will. But this is easily the most layered and ambitious thing the band has ever done. It’s just a huge accomplishment.

 

Def tops Ixora for me. Not sure about YAMS

 

Who is the girl talking on tracks 1 and 10? Do we know?

 

I've never been a huge Copeland fan outside of YAMS, but this is really good.

The first song vaguely reminds me of Illuminate era Lydia

 

First impressions are very good - Can see it being an album that needs to be digested as a whole rather than dipping into single tracks

A part of me wishes that Aaron's vocals weren't so smothered in effects all the time - but i'm sure i'll get over it!

 

Anybody know of any UK based shops selling the vinyl?

 

Can’t stop playing As Above, So Alone. What a masterpiece.

 

Erase is my #1 Copeland song. The friggin string outro breaks me.

 

Liner notes credit Young Summer on track one, assuming its her on track ten as well.

 

1. Pope
2. Suddenly
3. As Above, So Alone
4. Strange Flower
5. colorless

But I promise it will change multiple times today.

Also Erase is perfect. It flows so well, and it builds perfectly. I always thought Ixora ebbs and flows like the waves on the cover art and Erase is the perfect representation of that.

 

1. Suddenly
2. Colorless
3. As above, so alone
4. Lay here
5. Skywriter
