in other news

i've been playing the shit out of the MJ cole remix of no rome's "pink"... the song works great as a proper garage song

good interview with lots of details about the new record

lol at "It’s More That I’m Bored Than I Actually Want To Kill Myself (Or Something)" being a real song title though, they already did "I Always Wanna Die (Sometimes)"

Finding the discourse to this more exhausting than the initial comment tbh

I didn’t come out as anything this a weird thing to say. I did an interview with a Queer publication and was asked about my sexuality. I’m not playing a game and trying to take up queer spaces I’m simply trying to be an ally and this headline makes me uncomfortable https://t.co/Uy3WIlZH7Y

Quickest nontroversy end ever

european tour moved from february/march to october so they can complete “Notes On A Conditional Form”.
i can't believe i will only see them again almost in one year!

so I'm guessing that 02/21 release date was optimistic

oh thank god

Someone must have gone bootleg Dischord t-shirt shopping.

It's funny how a decade and a half ago, I would have been seething that this major label poseur is wearing a Fugazi tee but now I'm just like haaaaaaaa

When I saw them last he was wearing a Minor Threat shirt.

little-known fact: Matty's uncle was the ice-cream eating motherfucker

lol delayed again

they’re planning to release four more songs before the release which ugh

I know I can always ignore them but I’m only human

I guess the 6 songs total that we’re gonna hear before release is only be like a quarter of the album (isn’t it gonna have like 20+ tracks)

yeah 22 tracks

https://music.apple.com/us/album/notes-on-a-conditional-form/1473599936

also looks like they've changed the album art and for the worse

gonna try to do myself a solid and skip the remaining advance tracks

New song does not sound like Fugazi at all

where can i hear it? i forgot the bbc premiere...

this song is amazing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LS1b7Q--9Zs

they did it again

great creation records vibe on this

love it when matty actually sort of writes a bridge

this is so good. how can i thank them properly?

i'm sorry that i'm kinda queer, it's not as weird as it appears
it's 'cause my body doesn't stop me
oh it's okay, lots of people think i'm gay
but we're friends, so it's cool, why would it not be?

I listened to two seconds before I remembered my earlier pledge. I will stay strong!!

I just saw them last year but strongly thinking about seeing them in Toronto in May

oh god this is just incredible

goosebumps!

love this! feels very 90’s outer-edge britpop, like Ash or something. jangly and kinda dreamy
INTO IT

that was my first thought, too.

Haven’t listened to the new one yet just here to say “change of heart” is one of my favorite songs of theirs & it is the most heartfelt sentimental tender song abt being the person breaking up since idk Gwen stefani “cool”

this song oddly does not sound like "me" and "you" together

xpost "cool" feels like a smart reference point, it's the kind of song you could imagine them ghostwriting for a pop singer.

new song is like a baggier "milk" and i am impossibly down for that.

This is totally unrelated but I think that they should cover U2 “I will follow”

still the best band in the world

wow, how do these guys do it

jangle is such a good look on them

the bridge is soooooo good

trying to figure out what the riff reminds me of and I think it’s “bobby jean”???

lyrics of this one are kicking my personal ass

Oh yeah this is great. My favorite of the songs released for this album so far

lyrics of this one are kicking my personal ass

you tell me.
a friend of mine was telling me that this song is everything she couldn't say when she was 17.
i think it's everything i can't say at 31!

This is IT. Best new track by far
