I'm just going to wait a week and a half for the vinyl to come out, but those interested should probably just do google searches about where to find leaked albums these days. There's probably a reddit thread or something that goes into it.

Once a leak happens, the band should just send out digital files to everyone who'd already pre-ordered. Would be a special fun thing for fans, and word that if you preorder the album you get an instant digital download of it might spurn some people to drop money on a last minute pre-order to get the album a week or two earlier than streaming.

Haha, same here. Oh well, guess I'll wait for the 3 different vinyl copies I've pre-ordered to arrive.

Doggerel leaked in good quality a few days early and I expect Zombies will, too, although I'm not seeing it where I found the Doggerel leak. The band have posted a teaser with clips from every song on the album for those who're keen. It's here: https://x.com/PIXIES/status/1847215455578075575

literally 1-2 second per song, what's the point! give us at least 15 secs from each :(

i think this might be the first album from them in a while i haven't pre-ordered. not that i think i won't like the album or anything, or that i won't buy it, i just don't see the point in pre-ordering it exactly. it will never arrive to me on day of release anyway haha

Just got an email from UPS that a delivery from Townsend Music is scheduled to be delivered by end of day tomorrow.... could it actually be that a pre-order is actually going to arrive days before release date? That's never happened to me before, if anything it arrives a day or two after release day. Excited that I might be able to hear the album tomorrow!

Ha that's funny. I did not buy the pre-release for this exact reason. I hope it arrives early for you. I'll be at the record store on Friday.

I may have spoken to soon.... although the email from UPS said the delivery was expected to be delivered by end of day today, when I click on tracking history it says UPS still hasn't received the parcel from the sender. Ugh.... don't play with my emotions like that!

The hinge on my headphones snapped and it may take me a few days to repair or replace it, so I am somewhat perversely hoping the album does not leak because I have no way of listening to it

Headphones repaired! Not sure about you guys, but I'm definitely not checking multiple times/day to see if the album has leaked.

Pleased for you. No not checking for leaks. But the album must be out there given all the reviews popping up. My Spotify has a countdown that says 14 hrs 22min to go which will be midnight UK time. I'll probably still be up!

I got an email from UPS on Monday saying it would be delivered by end of day Tuesday, alas. nothing. I've since gotten dispatch emails from assai Records and Blood Records as well for those respective versions.... one of the 3 better arrive soon!

I would not be surprised if it goes live on YouTube at the same time, you might not need a VPN.

In the meantime, here are some great acoustic live in the studio tracks on NPR. You're So Impatient, Chicken, Jane (The Night the Zombies Came), and Vegas Suite.

First time hearing a complete version of Jane, I really dig it. It's like this super simple dark nursery rhyme. And Dave's vocal parts just make it super cool. Love it!

So... if you get a VPN, set it to New Zealand, log out of your current Spotify account, make a new free account with a different email address than your main account (or get a free temp email address from temp-mail.org), you'll have access to the album. Play away, if you want to...

I already have a VPN, so it literally took about 2 minutes to set up a new Spotify account. Easier than it sounds!

This quote from Charles on the album's genius.com page is interesting:

quote:
Fragments that are related and juxtaposed with other fragments in other songs. And in a collection of songs in a so-called LP, you end up making a kind of movie.


I'm just listening to Primrose over and over like a crazy person. It's growing on me, I think. Joey's guitar playing reminds me of Interpol's fourth album. If this is going to be Pixies' a e s t h e t i c album that would be cool.

My initial reaction to the album is... it's beautiful and it will require more listens with headphones to really sink in to it. It's more slow-tempo, laid back, atmospheric than previous albums. Chicken is the best representation of the overal vibe of the album I think. And it feels most like the folksy/"gothic" vibes of BTE more than any other 2.0 album.

It didn't floor me as much as Dogerrel did on first listen. But it's more of a grower I'm feeling.
