Agalloch "Ashes Against the Grain"

[Erik]

Portland, Oregon's AGALLOCH have entered the studio to begin pre-production work for their third full-length album, entitled "Ashes Against the Grain". The recording process will begin December 10 and the band hopes to have the album finished by mid-January. As usual the band will be working with Ronn Chick, who has engineered and produced both of their previous albums.

Commenting on the new material, guitarist/vocalist John Haughm said, "It is huge, bleak, and more rock-based than previous albums. I am confident this will be our darkest and most sonically intense record yet."

You realize this is going to be their "Kid A".

You realize that this is going to be emo/trip-hop/-core, right?

[Dick Sirloin]

Heh heh... I couldn't wait to see JayKeeley and Eriks' faces if this DID sound like "Kid A."

Wait, I don't see their faces anyway.

 

[NAD]

ALL.

 

[DE]

i think he meant that this will be their metaphorical kid a in that it will be the album where a good band turns shit

not sure though

 

[Dev]

I'll take a pic of my face if it does

But I don't know why Kid A sounds like shit

Fixed.

I know what he meant, but thanks for pointing it out.

 

[DE]

kid a > ok computer > amnesiac > *

so the kid a analogy doesn't make sense but 'tever ^_^;;

 

[NAD]

where is Russell when i need him. we'll hold hands and dance around the great Kid A flame, and then go out for frosty chocolate milkshakes!!! *maniacal laughter*

edit: DE, would you like to dance? *nervous twitch*

 

[DE]

I know what he meant, but thanks for pointing it out.

i was pointing it out to erik since he was talking about what kid a sounded like rather than the impact it had on radiohead's career

 

[Thanatopsis123]

I like the album title. I wonder what the artwork will be.

 

[Birkenau]

You liked it? I thought it was a bit...pretentious?

Good news though, except for the rock based part. NEED MORE BLACK METAL.
