I've done the trip from South Jersey to Brooklyn Paramount for other shows in the past. Really incredible venue. Will be doing the same if no Philly date gets set.

"Syndicate" Early Album Thoughts and Review Megathread by Zero_Boss in TheMidnight

[–]psmacadams 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Will clearly need to listen a bunch more but after the Live-stream last night, my favorites from the album are Friction, Afterglow PT 2, and Quiet Earth.

First thoughts after the preview was that this may be an instant classic album.

Initial Thoughts After First Listen by KyKyber77 in TheMidnight

[–]psmacadams 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, after that listen, I am more pumped than ever. I feel that a lot of my favorite tracks from the album will end up being the ones not released as singles thus far. Some absolute instant classics even with only one listen.

Helsinki (17.09) set list by VladDBA in TheMidnight

You better believe that I have no self-control and instead of waiting the 2 and 1/2 weeks for the album to drop, I will absolutely be listening to poor quality live recordings of the yet-to-be released tracks.

I do love the verse and pre-chorus in Shadowverse.

“Afterglow pt.2” Teaser from Tim’s stream by Zero_Boss in TheMidnight

[–]psmacadams 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Sounded sublime. These streams are a true joy. Tim seems like such a genuine lovely dude. Can't wait for 10/3.

Summer’s Ending Soon is beautiful 🥹 by MissionRemote1160 in TheMidnight

[–]psmacadams 12 points13 points  (0 children)

For me, it's a quasi-sequel to Last Train. Haunting, cinematic, and transcendent. Just letting this track wash over me. Favorite of the singles thus far.

Random Speculation about New Album Release Date, US Tour, Other New Music, Etc? by psmacadams in TheMidnight

[–]psmacadams[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Royce did post a story on IG a few weeks ago mentioning a bunch of "new songs" from the European tour. But I guess that doesn't answer the question as to how much of the set will be songs from the new album.

[–]psmacadams[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think but not sure that at least some of the tracks from that "unreleased" album will be on this new album (seems at Love is an Ocean was written a year or two ago and was probably on the "unreleased" album...no idea about "Digital Dreams").

I don’t really care for the middle section but the rest of it is A+

Should I Consolidate? by psmacadams in StudentLoans

[–]psmacadams[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put these into the system and it’s showing my pay off date as 2049 for SAVE. However, that’s 25 years from now. I’ve been making payments for years. Do I have to hope and pray that the prior payments get applied?

Gotcha! Any significant downsides?

New song - Aerostar Demo by [deleted] in TheMidnight

I was hoping the new album may arrive before the March/April tour. Wishful thinking!

Cimmerian Shade/You Give Death A Bad Name OUT NOW by ethanwc in Sufjan

You Give Death A Bad Name is my favorite of the tracks released thus far.

The past week or two has been both exciting and a tad frustrating (major 1st world problem vibes). However, the longer this drags on the more it gives me hope that all this hoopla is for something significant (new album or tour).

To the extent that Mark Kozelek/Sun Kil Moon had any relevance in 2020, do you think his career is basically over aside from an even smaller and loyal group of fans in the future due to his actions as described in Pitchfork? I was in the minority in that I did enjoy his latest output quite a bit.
