All Get Out - Nobody Likes A Quitter (October 28, 2016) Album • Page 45

Makes sense, I suppose. A five-year gap by a band that size isn't the most beneficial decision from a recognition standpoint.

 

Hm. Yeah I don't have a lot of color in color opaque variants, but haven't had a problem before. Must have just been getting lucky!

 

Still waiting for my pre order

 

they were on that Wave tour in 2011 w/ La Dispute, B&C, and Weatherbox. it was amazing.

 

Got my preorder. Online shirt sizes are so inconsistent. I'm swimming in this tshirt. The O'bro shirt I got is too small. Both larges...

 

i wish they had measurements. I got a large Procrastinate! shirt and it fits like a small.

 

Got a 2XL that fits like a schmedium. Had to give it to my fiance.

 

Maybe they sent me your 2XL then

Hoping it shrinks in the wash.

 

I could have sworn that I ordered the NLAQ package with a shirt, but I guess I didn't. My koozie came in yesterday, though, haha.

 

Haha I got the koozie too! Now all I need is some beer...

 

the ybi tour is hitting the same venue all get out just headlined here themselves, though i couldnt go so im not sure how packed the room was

 

One day a band I like will do this with a brewery that's actually local to me.

 

Just taking some time to reflect on this album -- I know I'm really enjoying it because I want to go back and listen to it again and again. That's how I judge how much I like an album, I think it's a better indicator than just a first impression after one, two, three, or four listens. Also, in a super chaotic, unpredictable, and (for me) anxiety producing future that's soon going to become a reality - the even keel, restrained, and serene 'Nobody Like A Quitter' at least puts me in a different headspace for forty minutes. It's like the juxtaposition of the new Jeff Rosenstock album, which is also connecting with me in a different way for similar reasons. Just thought I'd share some thoughts after seeing them on tour, and continually listening to the album and what not. Gosh, does it sound fantastic on my speakers.

 

I feel like if The Season and Nobody Likes A Quitter had been released in, say, 2002 and 2004 respectively, we would be gushing about these albums as scene classics and as true gems that were really unique and pushed the scene forward.

Not to take away from how fantastic these albums are now just something I'd thought about.

 

To be fair, I think that's how most people view at least the season now. I think it's a bit early to make that claim for nlaq tho

 

Finally.

 

Missing the stuffing tonight after buying a ticket for double face value on Monday. Fuck my life.

Edit: Glad he got a drummer that appears to have at least heard pre-Movement songs, but I'm still not feeling it. Bring back Gordon.

..Why am I like this?

 

Huh?

 

Drummer in the video above appears to be different than the one that's been with them since Movement came out. Actually playing at least some of the fills/more intricate rhythms Gordon did (on The Season, anyway..didn't watch the rest of the video) instead of just powering through the old songs and glossing over them a la Tim from MO on ILAVLAC songs..

I know this is a dumb thing to be annoyed over, and I'm sure I sound like a broken record and probably also a moron bringing it up so often. Hence the "why am I like this?" from my last post.

 

Good news: my shirt shrunk in the wash to a wearable size.

Bad news: somehow there's a stain on it that didn't come out in the wash.

 

Leftover tour merch being posted online soon....

 

I assume he just has a different style, but there's a balance worth being struck between a drummer's playing preferences and the actual recorded parts. Get the song structure down, get the part memorised to the best of your ability and rehearse the shit out of parts you haven't written but are expected to play; then you deserve some room to experiment within those confines. It's not that hard to treat material you didn't write or originally play on with the same care as you would stuff you have writing credits for.

I dunno, I just think drummers (and musicians in general, but particularly drummers as I am one) should show their work before getting away with things like that.

 

Listened today for the first time in a while, still very enjoyable
