Re: English Oceans Discussion Thread

Last year Isbell had a career defining album with Southeastern . The momentum from that album hasn't stopped as he sold out three shows next fall at The Ryman. This year DBT put out English Oceans . Eight weeks into its release, it has garnered great reviews and the consensus among the diehard fans...

Long live differing opinions, though!

Re: English Oceans Discussion Thread

Kind of surprised you would like First Air of Autumn but hate Primer Coat. It's not like they are the same song but both are more subdued mid temo songs that are somewhat similar to me. Truth be told, I originally had FAoA in the second group, but was having a hard time believing the new DBT album ...

Re: English Oceans Discussion Thread

Anything you like about the new record ? What do you dislike so much specifically? I'm not challenging you I'm genuinely interested to know why you don't like it. If you are a long time fan I'm interested to know what makes this record so bad to you in comparison to the others. Part of why I ask is...

Re: English Oceans Discussion Thread

Well, listened to EO yesterday for the first time, after my preorder took two weeks to land at my house. I'm here to say the wait wasn't worth it. Been a DBT fan since seeing them at the 2005 ACL fest, (known as The Dust Bowl year), have the complete catalog, and this release is quite the turd. I've...

Re: English Oceans Discussion Thread

My preorder was delivered today! Two weeks after release date! Thank goodness I preordered it, otherwise I might have gotten it two weeks ago, and at half the price!

Thank you, Musictoday! :evil:

Re: English Oceans Discussion Thread

FWIW, management was super late in getting stock to Musictoday. From what I understand, much of the stock didn't arrive at the warehouse until the Monday after the ship date. Well, mine was supposed to get here today, but of course, it didn't. The USPS tracking it states that it has been sitting he...

Re: English Oceans Discussion Thread

According to my interweb, my copy of the vinyl is supposed to get to my house today... Only a week late. I've never been too hung up on collectible records, but this experience is sorta making me wish that I'd spent my dollars at a local record store trying to track down a blue copy. No kidding. I ...

Re: Pre-ordered the new DBT...haven't gotten it yet...

Did get the 5 extra downloads... Yeah I know...I could have added extra for "expedited" shipping. I would have rather got the cd on release day than all the bullshit bells & whistles. Dragon Pants EP Dragon Pants (Jimmy Page) Grandpa Rock City Trying To Be The Boss Rock Solid Natural ...

Re: English Oceans Discussion Thread

Any tips on getting the downloads from Musictoday to actually, well, download? I'm running a Mac, and using Safari, (after discovering Musictoday hasn't heard of Chrome), have installed the Java plugin, blah, blah, blah... All that happens is I get the download window, with "Pending" next ...
