People have been doing this kind of naysaying for a very long time, since well before Tomorrow’s Harvest came out, not to mention Societas X. There is absolutely no reason to think they’re done releasing albums. They said back in 2013 they have every intention to continue releasing music and they’re liking tweets to show fans they’re still active.

Personally I think if they ever quit releasing music or decide to end the band, they’ll at least mention it in an interview.

If we compare their activity from the past with now it actually hasn’t changed much other than there were a few moments of longer intermissions... but, we have had quite a few releases recently... 1 major LP, a handful of amazing re-mixes, a two-hour long epic old school mixtape! Imho, they are far from being done. I might be wrong, but, I have a deep feeling they are hard at work smashing keys, dismantling vhs recorders and spilling coffee! I think they realized how much people enjoy their craft.... especially with the hype and excitement/non-excitment for Societas X... they used a lot of older recordings.... I just know we will be surprised with something awesome! As always.
TH hit me deep in the best of ways.... it didn’t creep me out at all and I would say, judging by my itunes play count, that I have listened to it far more than any other release... still obsessed with it actually... in my mind it is their greatest release and I revere it like the holy grail of their material.... or a close tie with Geogaddi for me
lol just my opinion

I'm with you on that one. When TH was released I was just getting out of a rough year of 24/7 studying for a selective exam for university, so it truly felt like a gift to have that at the end of the school year. Now 7 years later, I have a second shitty similar exam to prepare so I guess I'm naturally hoping for the same kind of gift next June :]

I'm really not buying the "they've stopped" theory either. I wonder if that longer-than-usual hiatus means that they've also been working on polishing their older stuff. A double release with both their old stuff and a new LP might be a lot to hope for, but who knows...

We are definitely at that point. This wait seems a lot shorter than the one for TH did. Age, I suppose.

You know, if they were ever going to release old material, this would probably be the time to do it. Considering the recent Warp festivities and all.

At the very least the 'A Beautiful Place Out in the Country' anniversary should warrant a tweet. My hopes are up.

You have no ideas how tempting it as to rename this thread the 'Clutching at orange hexagonal straws again' thread.

Never change Twoism.

We love you all.

While you're all waiting patiently for the release of the new album. Here is a really good joke.


The wife told me to take the spider out instead of killing it. We went out, had a few drinks. He's a nice guy. Turns out he's a web designer.

Hey, thanks. I think If I feel it, then we all feel it. That's just how powerful their music/message is.

Not sure if this is what you are hinting at, but I tend to think that the title MHTRTC has to do with how open and impressionable our minds our when we are children. The sounds and music we hear as children deeply affect us much more than the stuff we hear later on in life.
