Yeah, The Orville is fun and better than Star Trek Discovery lol. I'm still watching both though.

I was kind of annoyed at some of the "this was my plan all along!!111!!" story telling but I'm looking forward to another season.

Hi folks, I've removed some posts in this thread. I'd appreciate it if we keep the discussion here about the music rather than other people's personal lives. Thanks

The wav files mg sent over did have that album name tagged on them as well. Would be interested to hear why that name was chosen.

Men at the Door played live is pretty magical.

Didn't get a chance to see it streamed live at the office but nice to hear MG gave us a shout out lol. The stream appears to be up on MG's YouTube:

I've noticed quite a few of the songs on the album (maybe all of them?) end with a fade out. In regards to "Something Like a Storm" fading into another song, "She's Got You Where She Wants You," the track right after, is a lot more upbeat in terms of tempo and sound so I don't really know if it's meant to fade into that. It also has a lot of gated reverb which sounds pretty great and overall it has a kind of 80's feel to it but with that MG style we all know and love. I've been meaning to write up a review for the album as a whole but just went through a death in the family. Will have something written up before the actual album releases though. It's a great album and I've been listening to it over the last few weeks and I think you're all going to love it.

Album is up for pre-sale on Amazon Canada too with the usual price guarantee. https://amzn.to/2xYCRHF Digital copy is also up for grabs in the US on Amazon: https://amzn.to/2xpWMMy

I'm still hoping for an official Bad Pennies release one day...

I don't have any liner notes yet. Maybe if MG is bored he can answer that?

The album is definitely 9 tracks :P. I've been lucky enough to listen to the whole album and I'll try and get a proper review up before the album comes out. "She's Got You Where She Wants You" is my favourite so far. e: "Something Like a Storm" sounds pretty epic too.

Some details about the new album "Something Like a Storm": https://www.nearfantastica.com/news/something-like-a-storm.html

Here's a screenshot of the apparent song list. "Something Like a Storm" was one of the demos MG released awhile back.

Can someone transcribe the new song? I think I saw MG post lyrics on Instagram.

FYI:

Ack, I've now marked the show as unconfirmed on our listings. Hope you get things sorted out.

lol @ ed sheeran

i still have some terrible video from the living room show

I know your pain, just came back from Japan where it was sweltering but had AC. Get back to Vancouver and it's super hot but I never bothered to buy an ac. Now the prices are jacked up or out of stock.

mg should just record an album of our misheard lyrics. Could call it Taco Bell shoes.

Super excited for U2 this Friday!

Kicked him out. Didn't like his attitude. :colbert:
