Ok. So now that we have heard the official track opener..thoughts?

Personally, I couldn't get enough of that dirty darksynth. I'm counting down the days til when I get to blast it on vinyl here at home. Gemini is my star sign, so it has extra special significance to me...hell of an album opener! Might dethrone Ready Lets Go for myself.... 8)

I tuned in right as RTFD started. I felt bad listening to the first 30 sec or so of Jacquard, so I'm kind of glad I missed it.

So forgettable I can't even remember what it sounds like.

The fanfare and the moody synth set it up perfect for dirty part. It felt very cinematic, almost like the beginning of one of those epic 80's movies.

The initial fanfare made me think of the Red Moss fanfare...(reminisces) :lol:

Very promising start to the album. I've still avoided listening to Cold Earth - these first 3 songs are all I want to hear until I can give it a proper listen in the right set and setting.

Good start to an album. Very good way to set a tone. Wildlife Analysis will always be my favorite intro song, but Gemini just took the number two sport for sure. See you later, We've Started Up! Off to number three for you!

Wildlife Analysis is unreal, and way too classic. I didn't hear Gemini, but if it's a close second in your opinion, then wow!

It's awesome. But I'll have to give the album real listen a few times before I say it's my favorite. Wildlife Analysis still the undefeated champion thus far.

Who isn't right now? I mean really. We just watched history together. Think about how this will be put up on bocpages for future fans to discover and envy just like those of us who missed out every other time before this because, you know, the internet and all that.

If they could bottle it, they'd be billionaires.

True speech. I just love the way those dark synth tones sound like they're feeding back into one another. Makes me long for the day the album is out, and I can listen to it under ze influence of certain..anomalous materials :wink:
