A little surprised these are 45 rpm, aren't these mostly low-fi recordings, demos and such?Early recordings repress!

Yeah, very low-fi, for the most part.

Going by my local shop tomorrow to get the new album. Haven't heard the singles much, so it'll all sound pretty fresh. Also they are doing a free live stream of a show next Friday:

My record arrived ... to my in-laws' house in the US, so I'm looking forward to hearing that in a few weeks when they visit. Didn't like the lead single but haven't heard anything else apart from what they played on the nugs livestream a while back.

First time through (streaming): Never In The Real World and Penny For Your Thoughts are the two I’m most excited to hear live.

Spinning my copy now, loving the feeling of the album so far. The atmosphere of it is exactly what I was hoping it would be. Just free wheeling jams, even when it's an understated song there is a certain movement to the sounds. I don't know if that makes any sense.

I need these to sit for 2 weeks please. Additionally, woooo buddy. This album is a vibe. Some weak spots second listen thru but I think I'm just distracted during the runout instrumentation and need to have a focused listen once more.

Is anyone else still at the “shipment received, pending acceptance” stage of tracking for this one?

Listened to the new album yesterday on my flight to Austin - definitely exceeded expectations. I think it gripped me more on first listen than either of the Waterfalls.
In Color, Never In The Real World, and I Never Could Get Enough were big highlights. Jazzy outro on Devil’s In The Details was very cool too. This is definitely a new phase for them, IMO.

Mine arrived today (with a gift for the wife to distract her from another record walking in the door.)

Spinning side A right now. 'In Color' is definitely a jam!

How’s the pressing sound?

So far I’ve only had time to spin Penny for your Thoughts and I Could Never Get Enough.
Need a focused listen with the headphones, but I didn’t notice any (VMPish) issues.

I got the deluxe from their site and it’s the flattest, most issue free new vinyl I’ve gotten in years but obviously YMMV

That’s the flavor I got as well. Might give it a spin before proper cleaning to check for any major issues

I had a few pops here and there, but haven’t wet-cleaned it yet, so hopefully those will resolve. Otherwise I think it sounded pretty decent overall!

Enjoyed it quite a bit on my first two listens through. A few parts I wasn't really feeling, unlike where I dug Waterfall II all the way through first time around, but it's way too early to tell. Looking forward to spinning the vinyl in a month or so.
