tomsches 17,388 Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 Here's what a Reddit user, who apparently listened to the album, said about it: i can post the notes i made while listening to it but there is no proof. i do not have a copy myself and i am not going to provide details of how i heard it because i wouldn't want the people that allowed me to hear it to get into trouble. i can say there are 14 tracks, track names i can remember are 'arisen' 'loss' 'future forever' 'courtship'. oh and the gate is track 3. whether you want to believe me or not is entirely up to you will post my notes after this, i only really made notes on the 5 first songs as this was my second listenthrough which i had to cut short as was running late for work. gonna go listen to it again next week so if it hasn't leaked by then i will try make some more detailed notes. as for sonics, the birdsong etc is largely between songs and as part of the textures in the background. instrumentally lots of wood winds/flute/harp. there are still quite a lot of strings although they feel considerably less over bearing than vulnicura. right second listen through now. 14 tracks, just gonna write a few thoughts as i go. first track is called arisen. lots of almost old school stabs with a skittering beat on that one. definitely sounds very light and fluffy and different to the gate. second track reminds of aurora. harp and ocals and then a gentle kick comes in halfway through which evolves into skittering patterns again. submerged almost whale noises. vespertine feel all over this. third track is the gate. fourth track opens with vocals wood winds and then in come strings, very orchestral and then gentle skittering beat and choral voices. 10 minutes long! fifth track beat is basically a homogenic beat with flute and orchestration of vespertine. some of it is very beatless. the tracks that do have beats are split fairly evenly between homogenic style skittering rumbles and the more vespertine style of intricate programming with a lot of power taken out. there was one track in particular that was quite choppy and breakbeaty but it had been treated in a vespertine way as far as poppy goes i wouldn't say much of it was instantly poppy there were a couple of tracks that were more in that direction but also a lot of long track lengths and slow builds few more thoughts - had to cut this listen short as was already running late for work but gonna listen to it again next week so if it hasn't been leaked will post more thoughts then. definitely much less arca than the gate. best way to describe it for me is vespertine, homogenic and vulnicura mashed up with hints of medulla in some of the vocal elements (beatbox etc) it's a long album, over an hour. track titles i remember are body manners, loss, courtship, utopia, arisen, future forever. it feels like 4 distinct movements which is how the version i was listening to was split between vinyl sides. it's definitely an easier listen than vulnicura although way too complex to really get a grip on after a couple of listens. the gate definitely feels like a bit of a false start, weirder than much of what is around it much less obvious arca on this than on the gate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
