I'm stoked about how NOT like Intrinsic this sounds.

agreed ^^

i definitely want this album to be heavy, but i like the idea of it being rooted in more positive themes overall. that would be a more natural fit for these guys than yet another space-themed agenda.

Intrinsic fucking ruled btw

Video says 9.16.2014....not August.

This sounds in the slighty same vein as their prevous album. I prefered their deathcore in their debut album but maybe they will throw more of those influences into this.

Not debut, I meant Exoplanet. That album was pretty heavy all the way through.

Best thing they've released, not a hard task to fulfill tbh.

NOO i shouldve known i would have a reason to edit this article and mess up the format

omaha, i love you for posting this. this group has so much going for them but intrinsic was ehh. lessard is truly a beast of a vocalist and im enjoying this teaser. can't even wait

I'm stoked about how NOT like Intrinsic this sounds.

Stoked for this. Exoplanet is my favorite deathcore release ever, and Intrinsic ruled too.

luv you P4kArms

Fucking awesome mayne

cool

sounds like it could be really nice

why dont shitty bands even get hated on any more what the fuck sput

Should be interesting though theyll probably never reach Exoplanet status again. Not a fan of Lctr at all, but from what ive heard, Lessard is the better vocalist.

Posted this on their album thread earlier today but fuck yeah. This sounds beautiful. I cannot wait.

Also Intrinsic ruled. Haters gonna hate.

This sounds like it'll be good.

Intrinsic was a weird album for me. When it first came out, I absolutely adored it, thinking it was one of the most refreshing metal releases I'd heard in a long time. Then, as I usually do, I didn't go back to it for about +6 months, and when I did it didn't engage me at all. I just found it so strange that an album I loved became one that I didn't really like over a space of time spent not listening to it. It's not like I didn't like it AS much, just not at all. It went from being a 4.5 to a 3.0.

Hopefully the same doesn't happen with this album. I still dig Exoplanet quite a bit.

Intrinsic was so fucking bad.

It's so underrated

band is suck

I agree with you about Intrinsic, InFiction

Sounds cool

debut ruled and Intrinsic sucked. Teaser sounded pretty cool.

This is The Contortionist? Sounds really different from their other albums but otherwise still stoked to hear new materials from these guys.

"i just want an album full of Oscillators"

Lol, that sounds terrible though

If they're moving toward exploring their more melodic side and incorporating the progressive nature of their heavy side into it, this could be stellar. Very excited.

I have a friend who has heard this album, and he says it's easily the best thing these guys have done. #hyped

explain how someone has listened to this 3 months before its release date? Can they send it to me?

it is possible to have the album already finished and sent as early as they want for promo listenings or just for the hell of it

and no you're not that privileged

I'm just blown away that theyd have a new album recorded in its entirety, without letting on that they've done so until it was already finished.

@hopelust. bands can have the release prepared many months before its release

This is a breath of fresh air. I have to give it to The Contortionist, each of their full lengths sound a lot different from eachother

That wasn't much but I'll take anything from them at this point.

Cool

Intrinsic is the shit. Fuck you all. This will rule

gonna be shit cuz intrinsic was shit

intrinsic was hit or miss

this could go either way

intrinsic grew on me tbh but I don't like exoplanet

idk if the new vocalist is any good at lyrics either so yea this is up in the air

@pitchforkarms I know that it's certainly possible. I'm just blown away that they could keep it a secret until now. Not that much goes unnoticed nowadays.

they finished the album months ago

since then people could've heard it by now

You keep surprising me, wolfe (in a good way)

good to hear man, i got a job to keep track of even the ones I don't necessarily like

intrinsic would have been sick if it didn't sound like it was recorded with a fucking gameboy color

that's probably why I like it

my gameboy color couldn't record... had a wicked color screen though.

Wow that clip was not something I expected. Like I expect them to get all soft and atmospheric but that clip sounded pretty damn genuine

yeah the clip sounds dreamy and organic rather than the spacey feeling they've touched on before

"intrinsic would have been sick if it didn't sound like it was recorded with a fucking gameboy color"

Congratulations you win thread

thank you thank you ill be here all weekend

this is gonna be so good

looooved Intrinsic. stoked for this as well.

are you saying that what i said sounds awful or are you hating on oscillator cause man that track rules

i am mostly imagining a mixtape of just Oscillator placed thirteen times, and i wonder how little i'd feel about the song by the time the cd stopped playing haha

but i don't think Oscillator is one of the band's better songs, actually!! i much prefer most of Exoplanet, and i think the main singles off Intrinsic take more interesting turns. still like Oscillator but it is a little predictable and its intro feels needlessly dense i guess

"intrinsic would have been sick if it didn't sound like it was recorded with a fucking gameboy color"

"my gameboy color couldn't record... had a wicked color screen though."

My day = Made

hoping new album's better than intrinsic... shouldn't be hard

Artwork for new album looks sick as fuck. Hyped as all hell for this.

Only 9 beepn' tracks?! What the beep?!
