Ignimbrite
06.22.15 | actually though, this is by far their best album yet. I'm absolutely loving all the instrumental breaks they're throwing into so many songs.
also, it's kinda funny that The Wake is unequivocally the worst song on the album btu they released that as the first single |
RoundOnEndHiInMiddle
06.22.15 | it was the same way when they released fault line last year. i mean the song's still good, but it was the worst on the record no doubt. must say, actually pretty excited for this. |

06.22.15 | yasssssss |

06.22.15 | is there a lot of technicality and a moral anchor tho?
abr has gotten so fucking secular in recent years and the message has been diluted imo... i have kind of been waiting for the holy spirit to take over once again and show us how to core like he intended |
Space Jester
06.22.15 | I don't really see the huge appeal of ABR to be honest...I dug Thrill Seeker back in the day but Messengers really bored me and I haven't been moved by anything they've done since then. Just not my type of core anymore I guess.
I'm pretty excited to hear that Rosetta album though, should be getting my copy in the mail sometime this week. |
Ignimbrite
06.22.15 | yeah so I jammed the Rosetta album and I can safely say that it's pretty fucking hype |
Space Jester
06.22.15 | They must know it got leaked because it's now steaming on noisey and can be purchased on bandcamp |

06.22.15 | Link? I can't find anywhere online. |
Beardog
06.22.15 | I made a review for it, any one in to proofread it? |
TalonsOfFire
06.22.15 | Post in the proofreading thread on the forums |
Beardog
06.22.15 | ow that's a thing? thanks ! |
TalonsOfFire
06.22.15 | No prob, I might be able to look it over for you at some point but am pretty busy all day, so you may want to shoutbox Johnnyonthespot or Judio for it.
So anyone have a link to these streams? I'd like to post my review asap |
Beardog
06.22.15 | I don't know if there are streams, but you can download this on FirstLeaks (that's what I did atleast) |
TalonsOfFire
06.22.15 | I heard the leak days ago and have my review written already. I just want to post it, which the site doesn't allow unless it's been released in some official way, like a physical release or stream. That's why I was asking. |
Beardog
06.22.15 | aha i get it. I guess there aren't any streams, not from an official source, otherwise August Burns Red would've posted it on their social media... |
TalonsOfFire
06.22.15 | Yeah I don't know what jester is talking about, maybe he's just living up to his namesake. |
Space Jester
06.22.15 | Not this time, sad to say. My source is Rosetta's facebook page. |

06.22.15 | Perhaps we're all talking about two different bands here. |
SpiritCrusher2
06.22.15 | @jester it's totally obvious they're talking about abr stream lol |
Space Jester
06.22.15 | That's probably the case. I was talking about Rosetta in response to Ignimbrite and assumed everyone after was talking about them but they must not have read the previous comments. |
TalonsOfFire
06.22.15 | my mistake, jumped the gun on that one. I still need to check Galilean Satellites, I'd probably love it. |
Space Jester
06.22.15 | Have you listened to any of their other albums?
If you jam The Galilean Satellites, I can tell you that it's best with both discs on separate CD players. Splicing them together on one disc is just not the same. |
wayfaringstranger
06.22.15 | both of these albums are incredible |
TalonsOfFire
06.22.15 | I've heard no full songs from Rosetta, I want to start at the beginning with The Galilean Satellites. I don't really understand what I hear from people about playing both discs at once, or how exactly I should listen to it for the first time. |
Space Jester
06.22.15 | I guess I skipped over Beardog's comment that blatantly said August Burns Red in it haha.
I'll check the new ABR but I have a hard time believing it'll interest me any more than anything else they've done lately. |
Space Jester
06.22.15 | Well disc 1 is their normal post-metal stuff, and disc 2 is ambient with some seemingly randomly-placed vocal and guitar parts but if you play them together, the album is much bigger and the vocals all intersect at the right places and it's kind if awesome |
wayfaringstranger
06.22.15 | Yeah, both discs are awesome individually, and put together they become even more massive. I enjoy the ambient one on its own sometimes but it's really just so much better as an added emphasis to the post-metal half |
Space Jester
06.22.15 | Yea exactly. You can find downloads of both discs spliced together onto one but it's not really the same as having both players blasting in one room. |
TalonsOfFire
06.22.15 | I'm reading about it now too. I get it, that's really cool. I checked the version I have, which has the songs being together as single tracks in a one hour album. I might find a version with the discs separated and check out some parts of it first. |

06.22.15 | cant wait for this overall to drop below a 4 like it deserves |
