This is the weirdest and most unexpected Godspeed You! Black Emperor album I've listened to, from the press release to how it baffled expectations. Let me explain.

That cover is a bit on the ugly side. After a couple of so so albums I can see a big one coming.

Yeah it is but at the same time reminds me of the F#A# cover in design... Could have used some more color maybe...

Also, three of the tracks are already available as live versions on Youtube. The track (unofficially) labelled "Railroads" is amazing, will be interesting to see how they fit into the album as a whole.

"Railroads" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBJoNhcArN4
"Buildings" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHOwdByY4EM
and a 3rd one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOUOCIoEpdA

Enjoy

Where??? I live relatively close to their home-base but can't find any shows, tours. I have a feeling they are a great live act.

In my home-town - Toulouse, France. They have an Euro tour coming soon

Good album, probably their most solid post-reunion release. Too bad they cut off about 5 minutes from the original live version of "Anthem".
