Ah yes, he mentioned that a video would be uploaded on their webpage (the BBC1 radio guy)

 

 

and there is space for another one!

 

[DorkingtonPugsly]

It was really good. Just the lack of a melody kinda made it from being awesome for me. Where's my boc melodies? I hope the album's got some...

[Guest isaki]

fucking wow this is so great, but bigger WOW at the compression on that YT video...!

Yeah, a bit late to the party on that - my WARP memo got lost in the mail, apparently...

It should. They aren't going to reveal their best most melodic track first. This is just the flavor of the album I suspect. Damn good.

Yeah, the official mp3 sounds SO MUCH better

Yeah guess so. If it's stuff like this one with their melodies on top... oh man... My excitement for this album's getting bigger and bigger.

[acroyear]

Sadly, I have to turn this off, so it won't destroy the continuity of the album. I've listened 7 times I think. That's enough.

[Guest igloos unlmtd]

the video really tweaked my eyes at the end when the sun multiplied.

 

the mirrored cloud sequence was pretty sweet & I love the desert mountain scenes in the beginning - reminds me a lot of west texas but was probably shot somewhere further west like AZ or CA.

 

very post nuclear holocaust vibe with the abandoned houses.

[beerwolf]

really like the part in the video when the camera spins round in a circular motion on the desert pan with the hills in the distance

[cloud capture]

I was just outside early this morning taking pics/videos of my apple/pear trees blooming, and a few other trees in the yard. I got some close-up videos of the flowers blowing in the wind. I come inside and see this video and had to do a double take at the scene with the close-up roses floating in the wind. It was almost identical to some of my footage.

Regardless, the last part of the video with the mirrored sky in the water fading into the sun was almost like meditation for me.

[Guest Aces]

That last part of the video blew me away, seriously. *watches again*

Anyone hear a vocal sample at 3:25?

[NewSchoolScience]

Making sure I don't listen too many times in advance, but god damn... when I gave it that first listen, I got school syndrome, big grin and giddy. It's finally fully sunk in that the album is coming, and if it's like this track or better it's gonna be fucking amazing! I've only listened twice so far, and I probably will a few more times, but definitely gonna limit it so I don't wear it out before hearing t in context (in which case I'll probably proceed to play it at least 20 more times)
