The link provided isn't working for me

There's 3 download buttons - each one taking me to some site to tell me to install something or other.

Can someone help?

Same here. It seems to be down

 

[Bluedater]

Ok. Now that sb dared to stream it how long will it take to leak in FLAC?

 

[purpleoscar]

A 24 bit 96kHz vinyl rip would be so much better than this shit sound. But at least I know there's a good album coming.

I'll try to resist and not download it until next Friday (unless a HQ version shows up somehow)

I love the middle 3 of Summer of Love > Red Flag Day >The Showman. Once I get tired of those then my mood will find some other songs to sink teeth into.

Seems the link has died then....

Can someone upload it again? Freaking out to hear this now

Edit: Hold on a minute - it's downloading! Yes! (No idea how that happened, it just worked all of a sudden).

 

[Yahweh_OMG]

Red flag day is fucking good!!!!!

 

[Gilead12]

Yeah, the energy/youth of the middle 3 is ridiculous.

For me the core of the record is those energetic 3, then the meditative 2 after. The first 2 songs are a good intro punch, the last 2 a good outro punch. The 3 singles in the #3-5 spot, and the preview track in the #11 spot, are the most disposable. Am imagining my own playlist with YTBTAM remix subbed in, AS and Blackout removed. Maybe sub in Ordinary Love in the AS spot.

I would say a good quality leak can’t be far away.

You are probably better off waiting. I downloaded it, listened to The Best Thing and then deleted the album from my computer. The sound quality is nowhere near HQ so you might as well wait a few days.

Here we go! 8am here. Latte, instant porridge, and now about to listen to SOE for the first time!

 

[trainmaniac]

Can anyone share a link?

Thank you

I am honestly wondering if I should listen to this, not because I have any desire to wait till some arbitrary date set by a record companies sitting at a roundtable, but because of the quality. I have preordered it from Amazon already, so I won't feel guilty about listening to a leak, but is this a leak?

Eternally grateful to the Rob guy for sharing, because reading interferencers' reactions is almost (a big almost) as good as the real thing. And I want to hear the songs.... but I also want to hear them in great quality. To those who have heard it, is the quality really bad? Is it like the Blackout FB video? I am downloading it as we speak anyway, but I am not sure whether I will listen to it,

Most importantly, what are the chances of it leaking now that it is out there in some form?

It's not great quality but it's good enough to realize this is an unexpected gift of an album.

Stop torturing yourself and just listen to it. The quality is good enough. [emoji106]

Thanks

 

[dan_smee]

It is certainly good enough. Our kid had a decent sound setup at home.

 

[Jarvio]

The person who recorded it is repeatedly skipping through American Soul (not that I'm complaining) but I hope he doesn't do this on other tracks?

 

[trainmaniac]

Red Flag Day really has a War vibe!

Thanks.... just about to push play.... here goes.[emoji4]

 

[kiwilad]

Thanks

Yeah, do it. I have been firmly in the no leak for me camp. But... almost finished my first listen. Up to Blackout (track 11). This is a good album. Way better than I expected. Sound is fine too re quality.
Do it man!

 

[mama cass]

must resist

It's the bass. He's snapping the strings a bit like he used to.

 

[kiwilad]

I swore I would. So glad I didn't. Landlady just elevated me. Track 12 just started.... holy fuck! It's good!
