Circa is a great 3.5-4/5 band, so I'm expecting as much here.

This track doesn't hit me as immediately as "Schema" did off their last record, but Circa have been no stranger to growers, so I'll listen to it a few more times.

It does kinda have a Blue Sky Noise meets On Letting Go sound though, imo.

yeah, Circa are one of those reliably decent bands. This should be a solid release

Song is cool. I feel like it needed a bigger chorus or some sort of grand climax though. First minute or so had me thinking this was going to be the band's best work to date, so I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a tad let down. Still great stuff though. I still hope this band has another BSN level album in them so my expectations are probably a little high, but their past 2 albums were still super solid (Violent Waves held up much better) so at the very least, I'm sure this will be a good release

Song is typically great, and the album cover is incredible as well.

Heard this just listening to random songs on youtube today, didn't realize it was a new single. Song is great, as everyone else said, typical circa

It may sound a bit dumb, but listening to it with a good pair of earphones might do the trick for the ones that haven't really liked it so far, because the production is top notch.

It's kind of got the spacey feel of a lot of songs on Violent Waves mixed with the production of Blue Sky Noise. Can't wait to see them with AFI in August. Still pretty insane that my two favorite bands are touring together.

After that incredibly disappointing Saosin album it's good he went back to this. Can't believe I waited like 12 years to hear an Anthony Green Saosin LP and it was as bad as it was.

^ Are you guys for real? It's no classic but it's still a solid 4. And it had plenty of good riffs!

not a chode-hair-curling release, but solid nonetheless. September is looking to be a good month

I don't know I think the song is decent. However, it just gets boring after a while.

I like the production but I much prefer the energetic Anthony Green vocals to the melancholy approach that he does on tracks like this.

Pretty cool song, but I feel like it needed a bigger and better climax.

I'm pretty into it, Anthony sounds nice here, I liked his reserved approach to this one

Yeah, that Saosin album was such a letdown. It felt like a Circa album. But in a bad way.

This though I don't mind. I've not been a huge fan of their releases since BSN, but I like this quite a bit.

New song is another reminder Circa is heading towards a typical post-rock band sound. I don't feel that Circa magic from the new songs and Descensus. Vocals are mixed too high on the newest one too

Burn. I need to check it. But that sounds lame.
