Drones Album Discussion Thread

[AdamCee]

Is anyone listening to BBC? Have they said anything about The Handler there?

 

My assumption, Mr Impostor Alexander, is no

[googoogee]

I'm ready.

 

WOW!!!!

 

That shirt is green.

7:30

 

I'm in est.

[HagBR]

Is it 7:30pm BST or GMT? What time were Reapers and the other songs released?

[uneety]

I thought it was being released in a hour and thirty minutes, not just in half an hour. Where did the half and hour thing come from?

All of the songs from Drones were released at 7:30.

[CatchHellBlues]

I thought it was being released in a hour and thirty minutes, not just in half an hour. Where did the half and hour thing come from?

 

The fact that it's supposedly dropping at 7:30PM and it's now 7:02PM

[Howardm93]

I'm ready.

 

I feel sorry for that guys girlfriend

nice the only checked for a london postcode although my ip is german and it works

and it seems pretty official

[musedan]

Surely the XFM tweet is just repeating what Gigwise said in their article based on pure rumour, generated from the board. Still don't expect it tonight.

 

Will happily be wrong though

Haven't the other songs been released around the same time so far? I know Reapers was around 11:30am Pacific Time.

The fact that it's supposedly dropping at 7:30PM and it's now 7:02PM

 

What time zone is that?

and then probably lyric video 15 minutes later

tweet is safe proof or they have tom in the studio telling us we got pwned

Hype, hype just moved up a gear.

[Archer29]

Yeah Reapers was released at 7:30 here so it'll likely drop then.

 

EDIT: 7:30 BST

Well XFM is rather official so....

What?

BST

[ZockerFD]

The board is filling up for the meltdown.

 

Fixed.

[CatchHellBlues]

Almost, close enough anyway...

[matthijs]

Yes, sustainer, are you sure, you've got me right?) he hold high D with sustainer and twists that knob.

 

I know, but it sounds different if you turn that knob Go to Kit & Tab if you feel the need to discuss it further but there might be more people who can tell you more about it there.

 

In the solo however, he definitely uses it no doubt.

[crushpunch]

Just reiterating my semi-impossible wish of having lyric videos for all songs, and having a song released per day until the album comes out.

 

Monday - the handler

Tuesday - defector

Wednesday - revolt

Thursday - aftermath

Friday - the globalist

 

that will be nice

[CatchHellBlues]

It took you guys ages to get to 10K on thread 3

[googoogee]

I know Reapers was around 11:30am Pacific Time.

 

We're the same time zone!

[Bohemian-Cygnus-Running-Out]

BST

 

Ahhh, that makes more sense. In that case "in all natural and technological progresses, the hype can only increase!"

 

(Except I'm not gonna listen to it till I get the album)

[MuseMarc]

What?

 

normally it is hard for german ip's to get to listen to other radiostation apart from itunes internal stations and radio 1 because we have a different copyright safety company which can be really greedy

but as I said I am listening right now and when they tweet that they will play the handler they already have it confirmed
