    I'm 100% satisfied. It's very eclectic. I hear a little Petty, Floyd, Springsteen, and, of course, the punk influences.
    Upper Hand = Goosebumps. That one, and a lot of these are going to sound AMAZING live. Mike and Stone continue to SHRED!
    Also hearing U2/The Cure, which Stone has already referenced, especially on Won’t Tell. A tinge of E Street Band on Setting Sun. Petty on Wreckage.

    Had a good few listens now...can't help but think as much as people fairly debate the production / mix of Dark Matter. This is an incredible record and has actually really captured the 'live' element of the band.

    Cannot wait to hear these songs live, especially in a few years after they've had time to jam them out a few times! 

    Bravo 👏

    It’s insane how much better this album is than Gigaton
    Thank you! I'm not alone! 
    Agreed. Did not know they had it in them. This album is fantastic.

    Oh yeah the new record is out! 10c record variant........... crickets. Not even a delivery date. This should be completely unacceptable, clearly the business model change was not for the fans.
    Always something to bitch and moan about. Just enjoy the music

    They should enjoy it even though they haven't received it?

    Anyway, best album since Gigaton.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    Headphones listen through is spectacular. Instruments sound great and Eddie is spectacular. Like the "feel" of the music.

    Banger. Very pleased. Great job guys. It's not their "best work ever" but maybe they feel the most proud of this one, and that's awesome.

    Best album by them in 20+ years for sure.

    Also Running has really grown on me. It's totally fun.

    Absolutely enjoying the new music....not caring about anything else but the feelings I get from this wonderful collection.
    Cannot wait until we hear these gems live.
    Thank you Boys for making my world a better place.

    I liked Running alright at first and it really grew on me as well. Then hearing it within the context of the album I felt like it fit in and sounded even better.

    This. I just said to a friend that Running is the best placed rocker on an album since Grievance. Really elevates it overall.

    I'm seven listens in so far.... this album hits hard on so many levels.  I was skeptical about Andrew Watt, especially because I don't like the last Stones album, but he was clearly the right choice.

    Is there an HD download available anywhere?
    If you pre ordered any version of DM from the Tenclub store you should have received an email with a link to download the album. There's mp3, FLAC, ALAC. 

    Also, HD Tracks and Qobuz have the HD too. 
    Thanks 👍 
    Enjoy difference. Without it we're all boring!
