    There’s a new article in Spin, but doesn’t say anything about that. 
    Yeah I think it was consequence of sound's article. It was odd, Ben actually went on to say that Tyler and the other guy didn't quit as was reported and said he fired them. Then it talked about the addition of the new bass and guitar players, but then there was a sentence right after saying and one has since left already. Crazy turnover, but great band.

    One of the interviews I read I was surprised Ben said he didn’t feel like he had control over a few albums. I always assumed the high band member turnover was due to Ben maybe being too hard to work with. Anyway, can’t wait to hear the new album

    Thanks, I picked one up since I didn't buy the vinyl yet. 

    I really enjoy the album so far, sounds like classic BOH!

    I thought the same. Reminds me a lot of their first few albums. Good stuff.

    Bummed that my black vinyl had a horrible distortion on the first track of Side B. Getting a replacement. Saw some reviews on discogs about surface noise issues on the Rust color. My side A was fine. Stopped B right at the first track tho.

    It's really really good isn't it? Glad they aren't trying to Band of Eagles anymore and are back to their core sound.

    Band of Eagles?
    Glyn John’s worked with them on Mirage Rock. He also worked with The Eagles and for a time on the Beatles Let It Be. His influence was quite heavy on Mirage Rock and if I remember correctly created some creative tension during the sessions.

    Why Are You Ok was a nice return to form, so probably isn’t fair to call them Band of Eagles anymore! I love the Eagles too BTW.

    I remember finding Mirage Rock boring which was disappointing because I was really into everything up until then. I should maybe go back and listen again.

    I really love Mirage Rock, I like the attempt to focus more on harmonies in some songs, but it feels like half of what Ben wanted and half of what Glyn wanted. The next one they worked with the dude from Granddaddy, Jason someone. Anyway, that one sounded more like a BOH record, but then Bill and Tyler split. Going back to Infinite Arms, man, what a departure from their first two records! I listened to those first two records obsessively back in 2007 and remember not falling instantly for Infinite Arms. Anyway, ramble over! They have such a great catalog! Love throwing all of their stuff on shuffle!
