Holy shit @ "The Riverbed!"

I think the thing I love most about all your work Owen is how *immediate* the beautiful melodic lines are, they stick in my head right away and stay there happily. It is making me more enthusiastic than ever to keep firing up my own kboards/gear and keep writing music.

This album is sounding so good. Looks like it might have been pushed back to May 26th now.
― Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 22 April 2014 15:44 (twelve years ago)
Def my favourite of the new songs.
― EveningStar (Sund4r), Tuesday, 22 April 2014 18:14 (twelve years ago)
Yeah I love this one.

This just came up on Facebook.
The album release date for "In Conflict" has been pushed back to May 27th. This is due to a backup at the pressing plant; Record Store Day was a tall order this year. We will be selling CD and vinyl copies of the album at all May tour dates, prior to the "street date".
― Kitchen Person, Wednesday, 23 April 2014 03:32 (twelve years ago)
Agree that this is the best song of the three. Just another month to go.
― Kitchen Person, Wednesday, 23 April 2014 03:33 (twelve years ago)
all of these songs are great. i think the riverbed is my favorite although i am still a bit irritated that we never learn what happens between uncle jim and the young toughs

I am just kind of in awe of the arpeggios. It's that kind of True Faith era New Order trick, of having this gorgeous, bubbling arpeggio, but then at the top of the filter sweep, it bursts into this flourish of violins. It's like the aural equivalent of a fountain. Very lovely, I fall for it every time.
― Branwell Bell, Wednesday, 23 April 2014 08:16 (twelve years ago)
whole album is good btw lads
― online hardman, Wednesday, 23 April 2014 08:23 (twelve years ago)

Just looking into pre-ordering this. Apparently there will be a double vinyl version with three extra songs that don't appear on the regular vinyl or the CD. Think I'm going to have to go with that.

I want to listen to this SOOOO BAD but my internet is so not going to handle streaming at the moment. :(
― Branwell with an N, Monday, 19 May 2014 13:40 (twelve years ago)
i've had this on promo for a couple of weeks and i reckon it's going to take several more weeks at least to fully figure out. it's a great listen though!

such amazing arrangements, what a pretty album
― dollar rave club (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Monday, 19 May 2014 15:04 (twelve years ago)
I'm holding off on listening to this until I can run a CD through big speakers. But so tempted.
― i reject your shiny expensive consumerist stereo system (Scik Mouthy), Monday, 19 May 2014 15:48 (twelve years ago)
yeah this was superb, would probably put it on a par with Heartland but this one was subtler, may transpire to be even more rewarding

This album is outstanding. Have been looking forward to it for a long time and it certainly delivers. I think The Secret Seven was my immediate favourite but it's just full of highlights.
