I love this album so much! I'm glad I didn't have to buy it.
Downloaded the leak, loved it,
I don't think that my waiting for an authorized stream really had much to do with what the songs sound like, unless the band changed something in the interim. Definitely not underwhelmed, either. Also, I must admit that I'm a bit bothered by your telling me A) what should or shouldn't change my stance, and B) that I have changed my stance. On leaks. Which this is not.
I'm not taking issue with the stance on waiting, but it just seems kind of ridiculous to be holding out only to give in when a stream is approved. Your posts about the band and the position you were taking were practically religious in nature (which is why I'm often so excited and affected by what you write), and to be able to hear it on a "technicality" seems cheap to me.
If you're going to take a stand on the principle, than be pure for real and get the thing in your hands so you can really savor it. I'm not trying to make you feel bad but I'm just a little surprised and confused at your choice.
i have tried to get onto this bandwagon, but i can't find the step stool. i only listened to "my year in lists" and "we throw parties, you throw knives," because two songs was just about all i could handle. i imagine i have something wrong here, because i find it hard to believe there would be this much raving about this band if those two songs are representative of their stuff, because i thought they were truly awful and annoying. somebody prove me wrong, tell me what else i should check out before i am forced to just agree to disagree regarding that band.
Ha. If it makes you feel any better, I fucking loathe Snow Patrol.
