Shearwater - The Golden Archipelago

[elevated_u2_fan]

Finally got around to listening to Fellow Travelers... Hurts Like Heaven is rather sublime.

I don't approve of the "similar thread" listed at the bottom of this thread.

what the fuck?

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I couldn't see that in the app but now that I'm on my computer, yikes.

Scumbo, you can now order a copy of Missing Islands online. Guess they couldn't unload all of them on tour.

Just ordered one. I was actually in the Subpop shop in the airport on Saturday and was hoping they would have the CD, but they had no Shearwater anything at all.

Here is the link:

Looks like you get an instant download of the album as soon as you order, but I can't access the Bandcamp link at work.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I still haven't listened to it yet

 

[Danny Boy]

I'm going to listen to it right now.

The digital version only has 15 of the 20 tracks. I guess I have to wait until June to hear the whole thing.

 

[u2popmofo]

Are they going to sell out of them? I won't be home until Thursday, hopefully they're still available then.

 

[Danny Boy]

186 of 1000 remaining.

 

[u2popmofo]

Y u no buy me one?

 

[Danny Boy]

You can't order with your phone from where you are?

I can order one for you if you really need me to.

 

[Danny Boy]

Got the Missing Islands CD in the mail today.

You're not a real fan.

Spoiler

I haven't even bought it.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Any news on the new album?

Fellow Travelers has really grown on me.

 

[u2popmofo]

Meiburg has been posting pics and such from the studio, but I haven't really seen any dates or timeiline.

my mom texted me once to ask if shearwater was math rock. probably one of the weirdest texts i've ever received. "hey, i was listening to that shearwater album you bought me. i really like it. would they be considred math rock?" oh, mothers.

My mom just texts me pictures of her kitchen remodel, new car, etc... #spendingmyinheritance

My mum text me the other day to say she was going to get her "booby results" (she's had breast cancer).

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

The new album, Jet Plane and Oxbow, is complete, and will see release in early 2016. Tours in the US and Europe (at least) will follow.

Shearwater

The album is complete but we have to wait until 2016? The Hell I say!

 

[u2popmofo]

That's good and bad news.

 

[Danny Boy]

Do you think delaying their album until next year is a nod to U2?

 

[djerdap]

No, because U2 never officially delayed an album!

Duh!

 

[mikal]

Hopefully the vocals continue to sound like a creepy Michael McDonald!

I don't know who Michael McDonald is so your poor attempt at a joke is lost on me. BEGONE!
