As far as I know only dubliners would be eligible for phantom competitions but no harm in asking them I guess.

If I don't win this ill cry. Wanna bring my other half and propose at the show

I'll be working whole week so itll be tough to enter. I shall ask though!

david75

They'll be playing a Pj sing every hour and you txt in your name when you hear it and if you get picked you go into the draw.
Plenty of opportunity to get in:)

Set up a webtext for every 4 minute interval....that should cover it!

I don't think I've eve wanted anything as much in my whole life.
But I'm wishing you all, the best of luck and good vibes for it too.

Someone's gonna go. And I hope it's Brillo:)

Its a dublin and webbased station....nothing to stop someone outside the capital winning.....goodluck all

david75

Someone asked on the phantom webpage was this open to every where. They replied saying they weren't sure didn't think so they'll check the T&Cs.

Every radio station is online nowadays. I'd say this competition with be geo specific to Dublin.

Look up the Steve Gleason video. It'll break your heart.

Ps. Change your country location on iTunes to hear the whole record.
Lightning bolt is not the first track.

NothingMan

I didn't touch my location and I'm getting the full stream. Loving it so far! On infallible now and it's another belter. Really great stuff so far. MYM was the only one I wasn't sure of but it's grown on me a lot the last few weeks and everything else has been great first listen.

Hehe, yeah it streams as one big track. I looked at it the same way but I was actually on Lightning Bolt when I did so I lucked out.

Double whammy today.

Turns out I am going to the two Brooklyn shows in ten days, and then the album drops.

Couldn't be happier

They managed to release by far the worst song on the album as the first single. Great album on the first couple of run throughs.

Its leaked?? :eek:

EDIT: Just seen an email about it streaming on iTunes. To listen, or to wait......

david75

In a short word?

It's a drive down curveball alley into an almost endless left turn, making one short trip down pearl jam avenue for the title track then back into the curve ball cul de sac.

It's brilliant:)

Halfway through now. Pendulum is the standout track for me so far. Great, and really different

11pm earlier tonight on hearing the news that the album was streaming: No dice, I'm waiting until next week for the hard copy.
1.30am (now): I'm on track 4, Sirens, great listen so far. I don't want this experience to end.

Edit: Pendulum...Holy Shíte.

half way through and loving it, even through the commute noise the whole thing is standing out for me so far. (haven't hit pendulum)

Now for the European tour announcement!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

david75

Infallible sounds like that Christina aguelera song know the one? 'you are beautiful in every single way'

Theres some really beautiful songs on this album and some real balls-out rockers, but its going to take a good few listens before I know if i like it or not

fluke

I'm gonna wait until I hear most of the thing in physical format next week.

That being said I have heard the PJ take on Sleeping By Myself and I think that's good.

david75

I just don't know what to make of it.
It sounds like it is. An album recorded in two sessions, two ears apart. With the results all mixed up.
It's really disjointed but that works in a weird way.
There's loads of great songs they're just in the wrong place.

Track listing is bananas.

david75

Finally:)

Ed is appearing on Glen hansards upcoming EP on modern vinyl. Along with Jake Clemmons in Bruce's Drive all night.

This

Had a few listens last night and while I like the songs I feel that there's no flow to the record

smackbunnybaby

Staying away from it until it comes out.
What date is it in Ireland (i.e. the Friday before the Tuesday)?

Listening to Backspacer constantly since it came out. Can't believe how good an album it is. I think it's their 2nd best, just cant get enough of it.

david75

Never ever ever understood the idea of waiting til it comes out.

It is out. It's been officially released on a stream in iTunes by the band.

Go for it!

And, backspacer? Really? It's a fine collection of songs but...
