Mr. Not Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Sounds like something they would put on The Incident. This one according to their site has been sitting around since 2012 so that makes sense in terms of evolution. Gavin is absolutely assaulting those drums. more good news, since the incident is my favorite album by them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todem Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Sounds like something they would put on The Incident. This one according to their site has been sitting around since 2012 so that makes sense in terms of evolution. Gavin is absolutely assaulting those drums. I actually did not hear that. I heard a return to FoABP and Nil Recurring. The production and mix is thick. Also I clearly hear Luminol before it ever happened in that bass tone! I love the tune big time. Great groove, and such stellar production as expected. Gavin is a beast. I do enjoy The Incident. A very dark and moody album. But not my top from them. I need to be in a certain mood on a long drive as it needs to be heard front to back to be experienced proper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 They are BACK http://youtu.be/AW5v4Ohxk5k Great track. That 5/4 groove Gavin is hammering out is killer. I don't know how much of the album is unused stuff from back in the day and how much is newly recorded material, but that track is the PT we all know. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, one thing I hope doesn't happen is they Tool it up and overcook all the ideas of the last 10 years into an album with limited success. I enjoyed Fear Inoculum but there was definitely a bit of excess baggage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Analog Cub Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Curious if that's a Drop B 6-string or if he went with a 7-string! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Not Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Curious if that's a Drop B 6-string or if he went with a 7-string! Steven doesn't do 7 strings, the lowest he's gone is on The Incident title track as far as i know, and he used a baritone guitar for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grep Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 I never thought this would happen. The band has been inactive for a decade, and SW specifically said that he didn't want to go backwards. Or something like that. Well....whadda' you know? Happy day today. This and the new Riverside last week - it's a great time for this type of music. PT is back! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's because his last two solo albums didn't go so well, the last one in particular being unlistenable. He also was talking about how he wished he could be a pop star and that was just straight up delusional 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the Taylor swift cover!I heard it before I heard the original. Not a Tay Tay fan but my daughter is. Great tune. Except for voyage 34. I liked all the future bites sessions videos.

Union 5-3992 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 I’m absolutely stoked for a new release and tour but this has to be a post-covid cash grab, don’t you think? I had the same thought. Maybe The Future Bites wasn't the smashing success Steven thought it would be. Especially since COVID killed his arena tour. Plus it looks like they're just finishing off songs from older sessions rather than coming together to write something brand new. Either way, I'll take it. The new song was great. It really made me realize how much I've missed this band. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really made me realize how much I've missed this band. It's easy to get caught up in whatever drama is surrounding this, especially since it appears Colin Edwin is out of the picture. I'm in the same vein, I'm just happy to get some new PT and have a chance to see them live if COVID can go away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoopid Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Another vote for "happy to get anything from PT". The song is strong, not an instant classic but as Mick said... serviceable. I never handed $100 over so fast in my life. Note I did not opt for the To the Bone or Future Bites boxed sets, I'm not a completist just wanted the bluray for the 5.1 mix and figure PT is a band deserving of some extra financial support/encouragement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavin is a Mortal God. Speaking of Primus I've always been alternating my number 5 drummer all time with Tim Alexander and Gavin. Jesus, even after seeing Tim nail all the drum parts on A Farewell To Kings, Gavin made my head spin after just one listen. I've already ordered my vinyl box and my blu box on Burning Shed. CAN'T WAIT! 2022 ALBUM OF THE YEAR. I hope they come back to the USA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
