2nd Manchester Orchestra Song

2017-06-22 by Rowan5215 STAFF | 48 Comments
Hot on the heels of "The Gold" comes the second single from Manchester Orchestra's upcoming full-length, A Black Mile to the Surface. "The Alien" arrived after a mysterious marketing campaign where fans could dial a number to hear snippets of the song or spoken lyrics, and comes with a surreal music video co-directed by the Daniels. Catch it here: http://www.npr.org/event/music/533831067/first-watch-manchester-orchestra-the-alien
A Black Mile to the Surface drops on July the 28th.

This is lovely. I love the Manchester songs which tell little stories and paint little scenes for us and this is one of those. It's a nice mix between the last album's sound and their softer songs on older albums.

Wait, you have Simple Math and Cope as masterpieces but not Mean Everything to Nothing?

If it weren't for a couple great songs, I'd say Cope flat-out sucked.

lol JWT

it's a joke because everything lately has been a "third straigt masterpiece" - Alt J, Fleet Foxes, etc.

For me it's SM > Virgin > METN > Cope

If this ends up being as good as Virgin, Simple Math or Mean Everything to Nothing, I'm going to be so happy.

There are two songs out from this album and it's already more diverse than Cope.

All 3 singles have been great. This might end up being my favorite MO album. None of them have really blown me away the whole way through yet. Most are solid 4's.

Third single is the best out of the three and a 5/5 MO song IMO. Album will be amazing.
