(Unless it's a DLX/Live/Demos type of thing) I think this will drag into Fall at the earliest because of this. Bands make their money from merch so it makes perfect sense to put something out to drum up interest in the band and steer fans toward their online shops. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have material why not release it? blink was supposed to play at Lansing Common Ground last year which was obviously canceled. They recommitted to doing it this year (in July), I still see no possible way it happens. I fucking hate this shit man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those other 5 songs might not be sent in for months. The bots will have excuses ready, claiming the artwork or some basic engineering task will take all summer. Well, A day to remember delayed their album for almost a year because they didn't they had the "right" album art.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems like AVA has worked towards a nice comeback, would be a shame to finally release a new album with nothing but bundles. This. The smartest thing would be maybe one more single, and then wait until they can tour again before the album gets released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This 100%, the reason to tour is mostly to push merch because they make way more money from it. The profit margins on ticket sales are probably laughably bad.

Once I realized it was a sock account I had some fun with it but there was a good solid hour that I thought I was talking to Tom. At one point I even sent my resume to the TTSA email and got a response back. I'm as gullible as the worst of them sometimes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck this just ruined my day, I wanted the rest of that album so bad haha. I had forgotten about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Unless it's a DLX/Live/Demos type of thing) I think this will drag into Fall at the earliest because of this. I kind of agree with this. For whatever reasons, people aren't really into new music in the usual ways right now. So many albums that came out last year got attention for about 30 seconds and then went in one ear and out the other. When you release an album into the Covid abyss it just exists when it's released, but then doesn't have a life beyond that because bands can't tour to spread the word and there can't really be a normal promotional cycle. Maybe with someone as famous as Tom it wouldn't really matter one way or the other, but it's a really strange landscape out there for musicians right now.
