The Tesseract Megathread: Sonder Released

[DrZoidberg]

Is anyone else still waiting for a shipping confirmation?

 

[osmosis2259]

For me it says "expected delivery June 17th..." So hopefully when I go home it will be there.

 

[JosephAOI]

Wow, I actually got mine today, holy shit

Is anyone else still waiting for a shipping confirmation?

I am. I ordered the preorder package with a shirt. Perhaps that has something to do with it.

Is anyone else still waiting for a shipping confirmation?

I am. I ordered the digipak + shirt AND the vinyl. No confirmation. I was out of state for a week and hoped to return home to a package but nope.

Never again Merchconnection.

Aye

The inlay on that Mayones is ill as ....

And Strictly Seven wondered why he dropped them like a hot potato.... A Mayones with that ....ing killer inlay? You can't top that, you simply can't

 

[baptizedinblood]

Well, finally received my shipping notification this morning.

 

[wankerness]

Did they release the deluxe version later or something? I bought the regular version of the album from a local cd store over a week ago and it definitely wasn't a place that specializes in metal or tends to get brand new releases so I figured it had been available for a while.

 

[wankerness]

I don't wanna be the turd in the punchbowl, but so far this is "meh" to me. I really liked their last one, maybe this is a grower? It needs to grow quite a bit though, I'm just not into it, not as interesting instrumentally or vocally. Just me?

Nope, I agree, I can't really make it through the whole thing in one sitting. It's not BAD or anything but I definitely don't like it as much as the first one so far.

 

[Kurkkuviipale]

Was a grower to me at least. It's somewhat exhausting though since there's so many layers going on all the time and it's hard for your ear to catch what's going on. I got used to it over time, some don't, but it's definitely worth a try.

I saw TesseracT open the Tuska festival today. Amazing live sound even though the stage is a terrible candidate for an open air set. Ashe did a wonderful job, both with the new and old songs. Great performance despite the fact there wasn't much of a crowd gathered around yet.

But the thing I noticed before anything was Acle's guitar. Horrible cell phone quality incoming:

 

[Khoi]

is that a Black Kat?

I thought he'd be rockin' the Mayones

 

[HK_Derek]

I believe he wants the Mayo to be a studio-only guitar, and to stay free of road-wear.

 

[Experimorph]

It is indeed a Blackat Leon! Seems to be housing a pair of BKP Black Hawks as well. I was stunned when I saw the guitar.

Acle was also playing an RGD 2127(Z?) for the old songs.

I was JUST talking about Tesseract touring the US yesterday. WIth my luck, they announce a tour with Intronaut the next day, and there are no Oklahoma/Arkansas dates. No OKC? REALLY? C'mon.

Too bad the headlining tour isn't hitting Denver. Oh well.
