19 minutes... I will listen soon but I am hopeful

This feels forced and tiresome and that sound around the 9:50 mark is by definition a fart. Then it turns into Breaking The Law all of a sudden. Putting that in context with the first single, this comes off as very pastiche.
|
| |
not even coming out in december smh
|
| |
the Decemberists as a whole are a pastiche band
therefore I enjoyed this
|
| |
long ahh song
|
| |
It's too long.
:p
|
| |
Opener, Burial Ground is also available
|
| |
I am hopeful
Should I be hopeful?
And the light, bright light
It's all around me
|
| |
I for one am excited. Going to wait for the full album though before hearing the singles.
|
| |
Nah you owe it to yourself to hear this one now. Cuz damn.
|
| |
Burial Ground is excellent, but the 20 minute track is gonna take some time to grow. Felt unnecessarily bloated on first spin.
|
| |
I love this band but this track is 10 min too long.
|
| |
I don't disagree that the song is probably too long, but it's kinda nice to hear them really stretch their legs and go for it again lol
|
| |
Redacted since I elaborated below:
|

Part I: 00:00 - 09:30
CUT: 9:30 - 16:00
Part II: 16:00 - 19:30
They could have had a single song that was 13 min long and much stronger or broke it up into these 2 sections and had a 9 minute song with a 3 and half minute second part. I love the song but hate that they left 6 and half minutes of nothing in the center of it..

Maybe itd be a good idea to update band bios when there is news. This bands bio hasnt been updated simce 2014.
|

It's a very lush-sounding song and there are a lot of classic Decemberists elements that have been missing the past couple of albums. I agree that the middle section doesn't do it any favors as drone isn't really their style. They attempted some brief drone stuff on Hazards of Love, but not a 7-minute one like on "Joan..."
Still, it was refreshing to hear something from them that harkened back to why I fell in love with them in the first place.
|
| |
it's 2024, the world has evolved beyond the need for quirky indie bands
|
| |
Is this quirky though? They sound comparably serious here. But maybe that was your point.
|
| |
What the sacred egg said.
|
| |
Wonderful news, and though I'm only five minutes into the track it is quite good, definitely reminiscent of their trademark sound. Color me optimistic and excited.
|
| |
I really dug this until the tone shift around 15:00.
