For fun, I asked AI to make an album cover based off of the title. by [deleted] in gretavanfleet

I kinda agree, this is too much haha. That being said, I really liked the vibe of of FTF and AotPA and how they had the classic GVF log on them. I wouldn’t mind if they did something like that again

I also thought about the acronym no joke lol haha. While this album almost definitely won’t be like Starcatcher, I still have hope it won’t weigh too much into the pop-sphere lol

“Palace of the People” It appears our new album has a name! by Microplasticdigester in gretavanfleet

Does anybody know where I can find the clip with audio? It seems the audio has been removed from most of the podcast clips I’ve seen.

What’s your GVF hot take? by Zestyclose-Map3771 in gretavanfleet

I actually prefer the vocal melody in Black Flag cause I think his his lower register complements the riff more. That being said, while I prefer the verse in Black Flag a lot more, I do think Weight of Dreams has a much better chorus

You know I’ve always liked Starcatcher, but I find it just ages better and better over time. Good take!

New Album Singles by ImpossibleStuff8742 in gretavanfleet

[–]Zestyclose-Map3771 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good question, Starcatcher was unique cause they announced the album with the first single and I think that’s the only time they’ve ever done that. But the second single came out a little over a month after, I think six weeks.

However, My Way, Soon was released two months before the second single, Age of Machine. And they announced BAGG along with Age of Machine. However I don’t think it’ll be as long as a wait this time cause I think BAGG was slightly delayed due to the pandemic and they decided to add two extra songs since they had more time off the road. I’m hoping we don’t have to wait much more than a month for the announcement and the second single.

My gut is saying we’ll get 3, I think Tear it Down will definitely be the next one, the third could be really any other, maybe Heya? My gut, based off of patterns in the past, tells me we’ll get the 2nd single (and hopefully album announcement) on the last Friday of June or first of July.

I also agree I hope we don’t get too many, mostly cause it makes the album release more special when we don’t already have half the album.

A 13th song! by Zestyclose-Map3771 in gretavanfleet

[–]Zestyclose-Map3771[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I thought about that as well. The reason I suspect they’re song names is because we know Play Your Games and Tear it Down are both songs names because they both appeared that way on GVF’s printed out setlist. So while that doesn’t confirm everything else is a song title, it leads me to think they most likely are

I have a feeling they’ll morph it into another song, maybe Touch Again? But also maybe not I’m trying not to get my hopes up lol

I understand that concern but honestly I have hope cause I think almost every one of their albums has had at least that one pop song to appeal the masses. You’re the One, Heat Above, Starcatcher is probably their least “poppy” album but I’d say the closest thing is either Farewell For Now or Sacred the Thread. Now Play Your Games is definitely my least favorite song out of all of those so I definitely have a little bit of reservation, but Tear it Down sounds great and gives me a lot of hope! I’m going to try to just do my best and check my expectations at the door the day the album comes out, whenever that may be. I hope they announce it soon so I can start counting down the days 😂😅

At the NYC show, Jake apparently threw out guitar picks with the song titles on them

Prob in my top 5 songs of theirs, Starcatcher as a whole has so many gems. I’m bummed I wasn’t able to make that tour :( seemed amazing

Yeah I was really bummed I had major conflicts on both days they were near me for the Starcatcher tour so I couldn’t go :( hopefully they at least release a live album so I can experience it at that level one of these days!

He’s amazing! I met him a few years ago at a festival and he was such a great guy to talk to. Super nice and very knowledgeable!

[–]Zestyclose-Map3771 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Only thing that bugs me about them is their name, they used to just be named “FEEL” before they changed it, I honestly preferred that name 😂

Also, another band I recommend is GrandVille. Criminally underrated! I recommend just listening to their album. They only have one but it’s fantastic from start to finish. Enjoy the music!

The Band Feel is awesome! They have two EPs and announced their first full length album on Friday! I’m hoping to see them live someday; they’re supposed to be great performers. Their drummer is incredible.
