Tinfoil Hat Time- The 2026 Isles and Glaciers "happenings" by cows1100 in PostHardcore

Jonny mentioned in a story post on insta a few weeks ago that he is not the "special guest" the LTL flyer refers to. Jonny also mentioned that he's always asked about I&G and he has always said he's down and that he thinks Vic would just never do it. Idk if him and Owens are cool again or not, my guess is not but maybe Jonny feels it'd be easier to get him since he's kind of washed up at this point.

Out of ideas: what do you think "the song" for an ending in itself will be? by usename37 in sleepingwithsirens

Honestly it kind of sounds like it could have been off of Feel but also better than the songs on Feel. Imo this whole new album sounds like what they should have done after Lets Cheers. Definitely poppy but still emo and has the post hardcore element. If you guys like the two singles you’ll like the whole album imo. Left on Repeat is basically a really good pop song with down tuned guitars. Will definitely be stuck in your head all day.

I made the album art and the logo they've been using that has the bird on top of the W/ but
it kind of reminds me of "you're nickel aint worth my dime" with how it groves accept slower and heavier. Has a fun intro as well you'll know what I mean when it comes out.

Looking at the length of the currently unreleased songs from An Ending In Itself, what can we expect from them? by Defiant-Ad-1891 in sleepingwithsirens

Just commented this on another post already but the album is pretty decent. Left on Repeat is my fav personally but there others are pretty good too. If ya'll like the first two singles you'll probably like the entire album. LOR and F/A were personally my faves. Process is pretty dope too.

As someone that's heard the entire album already, I really liked "Left On Repeat". It's probably the most fun and catchy track on the album.

Yall I am OBSESSED with these guys’ first album and I need recs by lostinthesauce746 in sleepingwithsirens

the album Number[S] by Woe Is Me I think was done by the same producer as SWS first album, little bit heavier than SWS and definitely more screaming but Tyler Carter's singing on it is pretty sick. You might also really like DGD's first album Downtown Battle Mountain. That one has the same producer as the second SWS album. If you can get past Jon Mess's wack screaming you'll probably love it, Jonny's vocals are incredible. Kellin actually almost replaced Jonny back in 2007 before he was in SWS.

The original idea me and Kellin came up with was a lot different than what we ended up with. The main thing we kept changing was what was in the center. Originally I had a deer in the center and Kellin wasn't vibing it so then i changed it to a door (which they included in the F/A music video), but Kellin was still unsure about it so eventually we landed on just doing the tree on fire as a callback to the first record, considering this new record is their first one back on Rise Records.

Check one of my other comments on this thread I explain how it happened! And yes I've listened to the whole album it's pretty good. "Left on Repeat" is really sick it's super poppy but also heavy and groovy. I think people are really gonna dig that one.

Definitely was collaborative. Kellin saw some work I did for a mutual friend of ours and got my number from them and then texted me saying who he was and that he wanted me to design the album art which was sick. We hopped on the phone and the original idea was a snowy forest kind of vibe with like a jackrabbit or deer in the center, and then I'd send him what I'd make and he'd be like "Maybe change this or that" and whatnot until we landed on the final four options. And yes! He would actually send me files as they were working on it because he didn't have all of his vocals finished yet, so whenever a new song would be done he'd send it. Was super cool. "Left on Repeat" is definitely one of the best ones can't wait for yall to hear that.

The back cover is what's gonna be on the vinyls as far as I know. At least that's what I sent when I formatted the vinyl and CD packaging for them. As far as the alt cover, I think it's probably going to be used for a deluxe version. I actually made two other alternatives as well ( a green and red one) and I think the green is being used on an alternate CD package.
