Last night, I felt a sudden urge to jam this album and today I find out that the band's return is imminent.
To call this "great news", would be an understatement.

Good stuff, it'll be interesting to see what they come up with when it eventually takes off. I was wondering what this meant for ATD-I but he (sort of) covers that.
I still haven't checked the last TMV album. As for this I enjoyed it more the last time around (a few months back) than I remember doing previously.

^^According to the link I posted above (in Greek), Bixler-Zavala said that At The Drive-In "have a lot to say" in the near future.

Interesting. I'm seeing them live in a month as it happens & will be listening carefully in case they drop any hints (if they haven't done so already).

I loved their last album, pretty underrated, so I'd back a Volta reunion over their pretty tepid return with ATDI.
As long as Juan Alderete is covering the groove that is. Would love a Theordore return (though unlikely given his place in Queens these days) as well, that would make it unbelievable.

When Theodore left this band fell off hard yes, bedlam is still sick but everything else I could take or leave

Agreed. It was the death of the band, and I love this album. I watched an interview with Juan and he even said to Omar he was an idiot for letting him go

I'm enjoying this more than my memories initially suggested, it doesn't work for me ALL the time but this is far far more cohesive than I ever thought.
Forgot how much I love Asilos Magdalena.

This album is to me their most underrated. It gets so much hate from fans of the first two and I have no idea why because it cut down immensely of the needless ambient wanking in frances and just focused on songwriting

I follow you, although I dig the abstract texture of Frances...
On another note, I thought that the same drummer played in here and The Bedlam in Goliath, I didn't sense any fluctuation in talent while transitioning from one album to another.

In what sense bro? Jon Theodore on here and Thomas Pridgen on TBIG.
Both ferocious drummers, but Pridgen definitely plays with a lot more intensity and focusses on speed rather than groove. I prefer Jon Theodore.

That’s the perfect way I’d describe it. Theodore’s intricacies are in his groove structure and Bonham-esque delivery and Pridgen’s are his bombastic fills

Well, when I first listened to Bedlam..., I didn't know that a new drummer had arrived, so I thought that the drummer in Amputechture applied himself to the more aggressive demeanor of Bedlam...
