Mon Apr 29, 2013 6:43 pm

I waited outside hmv at 8am when trans canada highway was released, it's been a long time!

Mon Apr 29, 2013 6:45 pm

ordered the vinyl as soon as i saw the bleep page was up. paused the teaser after 20 seconds

apparently cyclosa is a spider... maybe it's a spider themed album

Mon Apr 29, 2013 6:46 pm

Must.. order... now... can't.. access... bleep.... :cry:

Mon Apr 29, 2013 6:48 pm

Should I have any problems ordering this tomorrow? Don't have the funds today and hoping they're be plenty left.

Mon Apr 29, 2013 6:48 pm

This is so painful, want to order it already.

I have no doubt it will be fine man, Warp is a huge label and this is one of their flagship bands. No sweat :)

Woah.

Just sitting here looking at this image with Corsair playing. I feel like I get it. It shows the more barren and uninhabited land in the foreground, and it shows the cream of the crop lingering in the background. Tomorrow's harvest, the harvesting of that land into building infrastructure, evolving societies, making ground to new places and new technologies. But when you make a new harvest, you strip something down. A freshly harvested corn field is as barren as ever. And to harvest the land to build the next big city on, is to strip down what was once thriving there.

I think this album might play on the feeling of seeing your past change rapidly, get built over, making the appreciation for how things once were even stronger. But of course there's a bitter aftertaste of melancholy there too.

I REALLY can't wait to hear the new sound. I want to know what they're going for :) really interested.

Cheers man, came so unexpectedly. I imagine they will have plenty, seeing as release is quite a bit away, but still a little worried. They better have em tomorrow!

Still managing to order mine after an hour.
Also I had to run home because pc was running out of battery.

Yeah. Hi everybody.
And sorry for my english.

Interesting, I got the exact opposite from the image. The harvesting of humans, the destruction of cities giving way to wasteland.

Also, anyone else notice the sexual innuendos of the last three tracks?

Mon Apr 29, 2013 6:53 pm

Still can't get through :(

Mon Apr 29, 2013 6:53 pm

YAY! My order went through after many tries! I can't freakin' wait! May is gonna be a long month I'm sure.

The City skyline is transparent.. Modern civilization is a ghost? It all seems to be pointing to an apocalyptic theme looking at the track titles too.

I'm pretty sure that's San Francisco. Looking out from here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naval_Air_Station_Alameda

As you can see here, it looks across the bay.

Yep, someone mentioned on the other thread the pic might be taken from an air force base where they film mythbusters.

Well I wasn't sure I'd be this excited, but I certainly am. Well done for everyone for waiting so patiently for so long. I will no doubt be completely and utterly worth it.

About time!!
