Third listen in and have a few favourite tracks at this very early point
Tippa My Tongue Reach Out …there is something in the vocal at one point that reminds me of, wait for it, Parasite by Kiss, on Kiss Alive! Eddie Fake as F@&$ Roulette Afterlife Shoot Me a Smile Bag of Grins…my early favourite for sure Carry Me Home
I’m loving this album. I will never listen to La La La, my least favorite of the whole session. My Cigarette and In the Snow will get played minimally, I have to be in a specific mood. Out of everything else I think Roulette is one I’m not completely into. Not a bad song, just the least interesting out of the other ones with no real standout parts imo.

Yeah we have expect that out of all these songs both albums combined we would get filler songs! But still impressed with the output from the band at this stage in their careers!

Out of 36 songs, not bad to have only a few skips for me. Incredible output!!! It is funny though because my wife LOVES my cigarette and I’ve read A lot of people love In the Snow and I’ve seen love here for Roulette. So my least favorite is someone’s else’s favorite. I love that they released everything because everyone has different taste.

Agreed! Even our beloved PJ has never ventured into this kind of output, to just get into a writing session and come out with over 30 songs for release we’ve heard of them doing it but they just never release them in this short of time frame!
I’m still pumped for them to tour again next year over any other band!
Yes I would love to catch them. Missed out on my only chance previously due to having to attend a wedding. :(
Yeah I passed on them this summer they played that gigantic Giants stadium! I’m hoping that they do an arena tour keeping fingers crossed otherwise I might have to bite the bullet and attend a stadium show!
Like most albums if you spin it more than a few times you’ll like it more and more. As already mentioned, the body of work this year from these guys is amazing. You could argue that Dream Canteen is a track or two too long, maybe has a couple of filler tracks but overall it’s a very good album.
I’d love to know the thinking behind the track lists for both UL and DC. Maybe it was obvious to them, maybe it was hard, working out which songs would go on each album. Assuming the songs were all finished before UL was released? (I haven’t looked into that).

Me too. I’d be interested to know the conversation between the track lists. I think they did an impeccable job splitting the albums.
Off topic of the new album, but why did I never realize that "I'm Beside You" was released as a full 2LP set for a RSD? I remember the 7" set, but not the 2LP. DAMN! Who wants to sell me one?
Yesterday on drive home from work listened from beginning to afterlife really liked all the songs they flowed really well together! Today I’ll listen from that song till end to see how they tie in the whole album together!
@nicknyr15 Got that from a lier on facebook. Haha.

UL was an instanat love. Canteen is growing, but it also might be suffering from material overkill. I LOVE that they are putting out this much material, but it's hard to digest and separate all the songs. I'll have to do a headphone deep dive this weekend.
