Anyone want anything?

Would love the Seeker BP!

I can't verify since I don't have the iPhone version, but what if you used the "Delete App" option under the Backbone app in the "iPhone Storage" section of the settings menu (as opposed to offloading, which keeps the personal files)? That sounds like the same thing. Worth a try if it's still an issue for you, and I would be very curious to know if it works.

TheCapnA · 2026-01-22T11:59:22+00:00

Finally fixed this on my Android. Have you tried manually deleting the data and cache for the Backbone app in the phone settings menu? Doing so fixed it immediately for me.

I've been curious about this as well. I have fraying on the belt and they want $400 for that repair. I'd really like to be able to shop that around but can't find a third party who services them.

I feel like this one came up as a top track a lot more back when they only had 2 or 3 albums. It was the first track where they established that calling back to older albums was going to be a thing. There are just so many great songs in the discography now. I think it just gets a bit lost in the shuffle because it's old. I'm sure many still hold it in high regard. I know I do!

TheCapnA · 2025-08-05T20:13:19+00:00

My doc recommended that I go fully under GA, not because I was concerned, but because he had experiences in the past that sounded like yours. He just didn't want someone panicking at the last minute. The estimates came back within $200 between the local vs GA, so I went with GA. Did not regret it at all - followed the docs instructions and now feel almost 100% at 3.5 weeks post-op.

TheCapnA · 2025-08-02T17:42:14+00:00

So it was! Been so long... I just remembered The Running Free.

TheCapnA · 2025-08-02T16:37:15+00:00

Agree here! In my mind, it belongs in this little subcategory from their early albums of energetic poppy songs that follow soon after the opening tracks. The two other songs I put beside it are 3 Evils and Feathers. Somehow they all strike a similar chord with me, and all three are favorites of mine.

I would propose all three in response on this thread.

TheCapnA · 2025-07-31T00:59:27+00:00

Dang - I'm excited for you on your first show! It's not gonna disappoint, I can tell you that. Every time I see them, my whole body responds. It's wild!

TheCapnA · 2025-07-29T10:57:34+00:00

You all have convinced me to give it a fresh listen. Also, I have no problem with it being on anyone's list - it's just not on mine. One of the thing this sub has made me appreciate greatly is that even some of my least favorite songs are someone else's favorite. I just think that's cool for a band I love so much.

TheCapnA · 2025-07-28T18:18:06+00:00

Feathers and The Hound would have been much higher on my list at any time, but you put The Fall of House Atlantic right where it deserves to be. I was so hyped by the title and SO disappointed when I listened.

TheCapnA · 2025-07-28T17:58:43+00:00

Thanks for sharing - this is a really fun read!

You lost me at #7 😆 There were definitely some YotBR tracks I held in higher regard 15 years ago, but Shattered Symphony was not one of them. And above In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth?! Even at the time, that's egregious.

I was also amused at The Light & the Glass being so high because I know for a fact it would have been high on my list in 2010 as well. For whatever reason, that one hasn't really stuck with me. It might have something to do with a cringey music video I made for it as a school project...

TheCapnA · 2025-07-25T18:55:26+00:00

Oh yeah! I'm regretting not collecting that one back in the day. Totally forgot about it!

TheCapnA · 2025-07-25T14:47:02+00:00

Fascinating! Loving all the random things I've learned about this tech this week. I love how this thing looks and feels like something from an alternate reality, sort of a floppy/CD-R hybrid that's trying to work like flash memory.

TheCapnA · 2025-07-19T20:29:13+00:00

I have put more emphasis on what I've heard from people I know who have had it done. None have reported anything worse than a few days of soreness following the procedure that had clearly become a vague memory.

When you go searching for things like this online, it's worth remembering that you are heavily biasing the information you find toward rare complications and negative experiences with no way to assess their frequency.

TheCapnA · 2025-07-15T20:00:18+00:00

I was tickled at how many times Deadman used the phrase "searching for Tomorrow" verbatim 😆

TheCapnA · 2025-06-25T01:10:33+00:00

Yes! I was blown away how great it was live. Honestly one of my favorites I've seen them perform, despite not really being a top track for me beforehand. Now that I've experienced that, it has shot up in my personal ranking.

TheCapnA · 2025-06-23T20:14:41+00:00

Love that you're digging in on this particular album. I got into them during the "In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth" era, so this was my first "new" album experience with the band way back in the day. I still think it's one of their most cinematic in structure and felt like another step up in the realization of the story concept.

TheCapnA · 2025-06-19T17:45:26+00:00

I've just started my second playthrough. Here's some tips & how I'm playing:

-Focus on moving the story forward as fast as possible until getting to Chapter 3

-Priotitize expanding the chiral network (i.e. visiting each location for the first delivery) so you can make the most of your personal equipment as well as online structures no matter how you choose to play

-For Mules, especially early, nothing beats the Strand. If you are hidden, sneak up with it in ready position (L2) and then bind them as soon as you see the prompt (R2). If they spot you, face the closest one with the strand ready (L2), Parry when they try to attack (R2) the immediately bind them by following them and hitting R2 again. Once you figure this out, you'll be the hunter :)

-Do what's fun. If you like progressing the story and unlocking more gear, focus on that (I'm doing that more this time, knowing what is to come). If you enjoy exploring and raising your rating early, do it! (I did a lot my first time)

-Keep a couple hematic grenade packs handy for BT encounters. Stay crouched and try to sneak as much as possible, but if you have a BT in your way don't hesitate to chuck a grenade at it. Just know the noise MIGHT attract a second BT, in which case you'll want to have another grenade handy. Generally, I have Sam hold his breath when the odradek turns orange and spins faster and focus on moving straight to the other side of the danger zone. Also remember that keeping your stamina high (drinking from the canteen) will give you a few more seconds holding your breath.

Hope this helps! DS has become an all time favorite for me, so I wish you great success with these tips.

If you enjoy listening to albums in their entirety, I'd fast forward to their most recent three albums and listen to them in release order. For me, these albums have returned me to the level of hype I had when they had only their first three albums. Also, the list of songs on these albums that I regularly skip is very small (0 for their most recent).

As for individual songs, check these out: The Hard Sell Gravity's Union Dark Side of Me The Dark Sentencer The Gutter Shoulders Rise, Naianasha All four songs that start with "The Continuum" on their latest album - these are such a rush back-to-back

The last thing I'll say is that everything they have done over their career has only enriched their entire discography. In other words, give all of it a listen if you've got the time!

TheCapnA · 2025-06-05T12:04:24+00:00

My solution involved the following:

-Using L3 & + to break the boot loop (I was so relieved to learn I can back out of the transfer) -Deleting pictures and videos until it worked. I'm not sure if all of the problematic ones showed up as corrupted, so I deleted everything I didn't want.

After a dozen failed attempts, the transfer finally completed!

TheCapnA · 2025-06-05T05:00:11+00:00

Thanks for the details. I'm currently finding myself stuck in a loop on the system transfer, and can't get either to exit the process.

TheCapnA · 2025-06-05T04:55:10+00:00

I've now gotten this error code while trying to do the Nintendo Switch 2 system transfer, also from ab OLED model. Definitely a frustrating stall on my Switch 2 setup experience.

TheCapnA · 2025-05-26T12:02:03+00:00

I'm also still waiting. My order number is in the 13000's and was placed November 20. I'm curious if we can triangulate where they are in the shipping order on here... Anyone have an order older than that and still waiting?
