So was this from sessions for the new album or older album? Also that note of "yet to be announced follow up album coming soon on Virgin Music" is cool. That's a new label right.

EDIT: HOOO boy, this Deranged sounds so good. YOTBR remaster when.

 

An album in the direction of Deranged would be so up my alley. I love that song and I’m so glad that we’re getting a proper release and new mix of it

 

Someone's going to discover Deranged today and get blown away, haha.

 

Until otherwise told, I'm going to guess this was a holdover from Vaxis II. The downtuned guitars are similar in tone to Love Murder One and obviously the synth parts are very A Disappearing Act-esque.

 

The Joke is okay. It also reminds me of Vaxis II

 

It was from the Vaxis II sessions, they're either about to start recording V3 with Zakk or they just started in the last week or so (Travis confirmed recently)

 

I think this is a fun release! The Joke has grown on me a lot after a few listens, and I love having the new version of Deranged. It’s a cool little placeholder while they work on the new album.

 

Yeah I like that the holdover isn't on the album. Shoulders was out for 9ish months before Vaxis II came out, I was kind of tired of it by the time I was listening to the full album.

 

Wasn’t the rollout for Vaxis II nearly a year long? I remember Shoulders coming out in late summer of 2021 or something like that

Weird rollout, but I understand the pandemic likely had a lot to do with that

 

I would have been more bothered by it if Shoulders was not an absolute banger of a track lol

 

Yeah. Deranged sounds fantastic.
I'll take a full remaster of YOTBR please.

 

The Joke is definitely a Vaxis 2 leftover, it’s fine

 

I want to say it came out in either July or August, then the album wasn't announced until November when Rise, Naianasha was announced. That was a 7 month lead time from that single, so WAYYYY too long of a rollout, so definitely some COVID holdover issues I'm guessing. Hopefully we don't have that again.

 

I think the rollout was similar for vaxis 1 too. Honestly think they just like doing it this way

 

Dark Sentencer came out in June, and the album was out in October, so only 4 month lead time there.

 

Ahh ok my b

 

Didn’t they say that Vaxis II was initially intended to be released in 2021? I think I remember reading about how the album was finished in 2020 or early 2021. Maybe I’m misremembering.

Wish I caught them on that album cycle on that album cycle though. Hopefully I get a chance to see Beautiful Losers, Comatose, The Liars Club, and Rise Naianasha

 

Seeing them on the Alk3 tour and NWFT/AWOTWM tour has led me to see a vast majority of it live. Rise and Ladders of Supremacy are my favorites.

 

Definitely in this group of people. haha

 

Holdover songs are great, Jessie's Girl 3 when though?

 

New "Deranged" mix is really great. Never would have guessed it would get any TLC 13 years on.

 

the Vaxis II show I caught them on was insane

 

The Joke is fine; definitely enjoy Deranged more and am glad it got a re-recording. Excited to see what Vaxis III is going to be like

 

Immediately hearing the joker I was like oh yeah it’s got that Vaxis II sound and immediately wanted to toss it on. I didn’t get a chance to but with the weather heating up I know I’ll be busting it out soon.

 

I put on Vaxis I after listening through the singles, haha. Having a good time with it. I definitely have some complaints, but it’s mostly water under the bridge these days.
