Balance and Composure - With You in Spirit (October 4th 2024) Album • Page 19

got this one too. was super skeptical when i saw the mockup but this is gorgeous

 

This album absolutely rocks and I am so happy

 

They were GREAT last night. Opened with "Restless", played a decent bit of the pre-released songs. Neither of Last to Know or Savior Mode. Some songs from Light We Made (Midnight Zone, Postcard, Afterparty, Body Language if you count that) and TTWTWM (Tiny Raindrop, Notice Me, Reflection).

 

Seeing them tomorrow, excited. Bummer to see nothing from before 2013 but not surprised

 

This is so good. I didn’t listen to anything prerelease, so I’m totally mind blown over how it feels like they never left.

 

just listened to any means and immediately hit replay. good first listen so far.

 

travelled from Glasgow for this. Was so good. Going to Philly now for Saturday.

 

@musicfan10 you are legally obligated to post in here today

 

I ALWAYS HOPED FOR THE BEST

SOMETHING FEELS WRONG IN MY CHEST

 

That rhythm that any means sinks into is so sick. A whole mood, as they say. Song really reminds me of Circa

 

lol dude I was standing next to you before they started and we were talking football! Let me know if you find a good cheesesteak!

 

This is dope. Feels like their other shit but more grown up

 

That’s so crazy! Appreciated the chat!

 

Dennis plays around the kit so much more freely than Bailey did, but is noticeably careful to not let it affect the way these songs land or stray too far from the rhythm section in the past. He did a bang up job here. Many of his fills feel so fresh for B&C, then I get to something like the chorus of the title track and it feels like a comforting return to the groove on Lost Your Name

 

Why are you not surprised? Do they just not revisit Seperation anymore? If so that's a bummer.... Quake and I Tore you apart are classics. I'm a sucker for that album and absolutely love the drum tones.

 

Even when I saw them when they were touring on things we think we’re missing they barely played anything from separation.

 

they did play void and quake but only those 2

 

Man I've listened to it twice, and yeah I'm biased, I absolutely love this band. But I think they
made an amazing record. Its got everything you could want from them. All of the songs are
great, not one song that I want to skip. I honestly think its got to be up there for record of the
year.

 

I liked the singles and the remaining songs did exactly what I was hoping in terms of giving the whole album more variety, Lead Foot and Closer to God specifically are great. Really would like to see them tonight but not sure I feel up to it

 

stopped at two record stores on the way home and neither had it :(

 

They just keep getting better and better

 

"Closer to God" and "Lead Foot" are the clubhouse leaders right now.

 

closer to god seems to be the universal favorite among anyone that has texted or messaged me about this record today

 

Sucks, my record store was playing it as I walked in

 

Cannot wait to dive into this album tonight.
