This sounds like it's gonna be a hell of an album. I'm not generally big on live albums but maybe because it's MG that makes it so much more appealing...and also it sounds amazing.

[Shiri]

Listened to Weapon, Giant and a couple more. Sounds good, very good quality.

[bishopx]

GOOD??? IT's BETTER THAN GOOD, IT'S MATTHEW GOOD!!!

 

Can you tell I'm excited?????

[somnambulist]

New songs? For shizzle? NOW I'm excited!

[calgarydave]

OMG I had hoped, but dared not belive... My 2 fav songs are going to be on this album and in the first release.

 

OMG SOOOOO EXCITED NOW!!!

I think it's been long overdue. If it wasn't for Charles taking pity, I wouldn't have heard 'owt other than terrible 30-second Youtube clips from mobiles in the way of live stuff from a 14-year career. Pretty frustrating...

 

From what's been shared so far, it sounds fan-fucking-tastic. ;)

Weapon's still my favourite recording out of all the songs I've heard thus far. The way the guitar riff is timed with the drums towards the end makes me move my head in ways music hasn't made me in a long damn time.

[daniel_v]

The only thing that's really bugging me about the recordings is the fact that the bass guitar appears to be really low in the mix, and almost inaudible, and it makes the recordings sound a little thin. Granted, that could because I've been listening with my laptop speakers and not headphones, but dammit! As a bass player I like hearing that stuff.

agreed..

Ive tortured myself and decided not to listen to the latest three tracks....I'm waiting 'til Tuesday...

[Morglor9]

For some reason I thought this came out this morning, so I woke up and was all "oh shit, gotta preorder, where is it, where is it?"

[winn23]

Nice one, I'll have a look now. Never actually bothered to check Google Video 'cos I'm a fucking idiot.

 

But generally, I was getting at how few and far between any professionally recorded stuff is, rather than saying there's zero audience recordings out there worth listening to, although most are painful. ;)

Some of the files were too big for youtube to accept, so I threw them all on google because it was easy enough and they have a desktop uploader.

 

I got decent sound quality out of my brothers digi-camcorder though, so I was happy.

 

Too bad I missed the stage during most of Fine Art >.<

Just to let all of you outside of Canada know that it's available on respective iTunes stores at local times. i.e. - it's after midnight on the 7th now here in NZ, so it's available on iTunes. ;)

 

The downside - it's not iTunes Plus.

 

Cost is NZD $21.99 (= CAD $15.46).

Label is given as Cobraside - see attached.

Anytime Craigers.

 

I have to admit the bass is definitely tuned down...It took a few listens to get past the excitment to get analytical. As a bassist, I'm bothered a little...but generally, unless you're Geddy Lee...most bass players get lost in live recording mixes.

This also bugs me as a bass player /cryface

[B Gallagher]

Is anyone else noticing two-second audible gaps of silence between each track off iTunes?

[austintexas5597]

when you buy the whole album do you get avalanche?

[Jane Belinda Smith]

Can't wait til midnight now (3 and a half hours to go

[austintexas5597]

im worried about the pre order, im in canada but id much prefer to have the vinyl and cd all ordered. regardless ill be buying it on itunes in a few hours hopefully.

[Sarah A]

Does anyone know if you will be able to preorder at midnight or is it going to be at some random time during the day tomorrow? Either way, it's going to be a late night ;)

I think, because the bass can be a very dominant sound, if it's not mixed properly, most engineers tune it down really low to and end up overcompensating.
