Re: OLP 30: Sound The Alarm

Saw they just released "I wanna be your drug" today, and gotta admit I much preferred "The Fix" (still listen to the clumsy monkey recording on Youtube!), a bit like how I prefer "The Wolf" over "Fire in the Henhouse", is it a case that they're overworking stuff?

Was disappointed to see them use AI ...

Re: Spiritual Machines II Discussion

I saw a link to a B-Side called "Neurosis" on their reddit page:

Re: Spiritual Machines II Discussion

Had a couple days listening to it and I like it. I feel like the various delays and NFT chatter have tainted it somewhat for me because it lead me to listening to versions of tracks they played live on Youtube (The Message, Run, Wish You Well), so there weren't many 'surprises' for me when I loaded ...

Re: Spiritual Machines II Discussion

It's FINALLY on Spotify - excited to listen today! Will order the physical CD too as I always do with OLP, but can wait until April for that.

Re: New Album news!!

The snippet of the next single, 'Holes', sounds GREAT!

Excites me more than the previews of the first 2 singles did.

Comes out on the 10th.

Re: New Album news!!

Well, I certainly hope for October rather than January 2022. I really loved the recordings of Run and The Message, but did a bit of an eye roll when I saw the January date. It's really hard to stay enthused when it keeps dragging on and on. We first heard the clip of Future Disease in February this ...

Re: New Album news!!

Since it's been a few days and no other recordings/clips have surfaced, I thought I'd post my audio recording so you all can hear the new songs in full. I'll leave it up in my Google Drive for a bit.

Full Saskatoon show from August 12, 2021

Posted in the Audio & Video Recordings section as well ...

Re: New Album news!!

Love the music of 'Wish you well' but not hugely fond of the lyrics (yet more "alright"s from Steve/Duncan like 'Stop Making Stupid People Famous')

Some's posted a clip of The Message which is much more up my street!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNhAyNY-_CU

Really digging the sound of this one!

Re: Stop Making Stupid People Famous

It reminds me more of Won't Turn Back than anything off Spiritual Machines, but I like it A LOT more than Won't Turn Back. Really easy to leave it on repeat.

I do think maybe it could've come out years ago, ha, as it did debut in 2019, right?

Has a great energy to it, for me. Doesn't quite knock ...

Re: General OLP News

Came on here hoping for an update on the album as they said the first single would be out before Christmas, but guess we're all still waiting! (understandable when a pandemic is getting in the way of a lot of things)

I am a little disappointed if they're going down the NFT route as I've heard a lot ...

From Instagram: "To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Spiritual Machines this year, we’re releasing a remastered version of the album this Friday. We’ll also be dropping some exclusive content over the next few weeks in anticipation of the release of Spiritual Machines II early next year!"

Re: General OLP News

I don't often post here as I don't usually have much to offer, ha, but I am SO EXCITED for this. Spiritual Machines is my favourite album of all time, and while I'll try to keep my expectations to a minimum, I really enjoyed Somethingness.

Does anyone know if it's available to people in UK? I'm on ...

Got my CD in the post a couple weeks ago?

Re: Somethingness Volumes 1 and 2

It does seem waaay too quiet. I mean I was only around for the releases of Curve, Won't Turn Back, and TH tracks, but even those had a healthy buzz. I couldn't imagine how hype the albums before were.

Is it because of their PledgeMusic way of releasing that theirs no hype? Do they still have a ...
