Whoever said Tape05 wouldn't be on the album, you were right! Which leads me to the question......what will it be on?

Tape 05 on YouTube is 3:22 seconds with 4 seconds of silence at the end. It ends at 3:18 (too short imho). It could be Father and Son (Track 05) or Deep Time (Track 13). Personally I feel that it is track 5 (cuz of tape 5 but YMMV)

Checks out!

Predictions:
They will mention Estus Pirkle and his films as a source of inspiration for the album ("If Footmen Tire You, What Will Horses Do?")

They have gotten into black metal recently. This feels weirdly like a metal album. Something about the track titles, I just can't put my finger on it.

Father = the suspenseful first half, Son = the release part that builds on the first half

Idk if they were actually halves though

Yes you could be right - also in the video the obvious crucifix being raised up with the possible religious link. It has church organ-esque chords toward the end and feels very transcending

its very moving

It is literally the same font that's on Music Has The Right To Children cover - ITC Bauhaus, it's just larger and bold and upper case. I personally love it, total 70s video nasty vibe.

Literally spat out my stawberry milk upon the announcment! My hands are shaking from how fast I went through the pre-order process! Almost like they took over my brain like a sleeper agent to hit pre order!

IMO they look a bit weird, their heads are too big. And they're facing away. And there's 4 kids? Huge family by today's standards

To me it doesn't look like a family, but rather a timeline of two figures (male and female) growing up.

The outlines of the two central figures look like teenagers, not adults, but that's just a guess.

They just seem intentionally self-similar compared to their other "family" logos/icons, where the adults and children are clearly delineated.

Welcome back! Congrats on making it another decade while hurling through space on a rock that's absolutely lousy with nukes.

They've been using the nuclear family imagery for a while. It was etched on the geogaddi vinyl iirc

Almost definitely yeah!

IronMark wrote:18 tracks and by the lengths, very few if any of their trademark interludes.

This was the first thing I noticed about the tracklist too - very few short interludes, though the fact there's a continuous mix makes me think some might be included at the end of the longer tracks as on earlier albums (eg Blueberry at the end of Sixtyten).

Reckon we might get a full length music video by the end of the week.

i've seen lots of people on the reddit saying "given how dark the world is..." and "we're in a shithole, so...", and while it may be true, i feel that maybe something which just re-affirms all that and tells you everything really is bad can't be that conducive to giving any kind of hope.

personally i feel like a hopeful album is what we need, but perhaps that's just what i want.

(also part of me wants to not have waited over a decade for 'nope, everything still shite in the world')
As dark as it undeniably is, I can't help but feel there's a transcendent side to it. Sort of an alchemical forged in the fires kind of thing, like the trials every person must pass through to reach paradise, you know?

I’m glad to hear the bird sounds in Introit… stunned to be hearing the introduction already.

Love the artwork, the new teaser clip, the track titles... dark and unsettling in the way only they can do, just a bit more on the nose this time.

Absolutely jazzed.

The press release gives so little away too, which excites me even more. It's allllllll gonna be in the music and the artwork.

Posted: **Wed Apr 22, 2026 4:17 pm**

Very awesome.

Posted: **Wed Apr 22, 2026 4:17 pm**

We're sure the teaser is track# 1?

I can paypal you the cash and you pay me back when you can, I don't mind.

Yes, that's what I'm saying. This icon is notably different. I have had that vinyl for almost a quarter of a century. Oh dear how time flies...
