SOOOOOOOO excited! and they're touting Fairport/Pentangle/Tinariwen influences?! (perfection) Saw this lineup earlier this year at the Echoplex, just before I started recording everything I've seen lately. follow up album (II) later in the year...


I've read a bit about Dylan doing a very few solo gigs around Seattle, anybody here know any more about this (he said, hoping for links to uploads)

awesome.

yeah, been so sited about this

wow, Karl Blau is in Earth now? sounds like a killer line-up.

Leaked. And sounding good, so far.

And they're doing live shows to boot!

Looking forward to listening to this new record, and hopefully some live recordings will surface as well.

sweet thats great, thanks.

Great news!

Hope it's better than the last one. Bees was somewhat of a letdown.

Oh damn, this is some good news!

No gigs in europe? :(

They are playing two gigs here in Ireland in April me thinks, so if they playing here, then Europe is definite!

I'll probably attend and tape the May 6 show in Amsterdam.

We have good news.

I enjoy Extra-Capsular Extraction and Earth 2, but I can't really get into their recent output (Hex, The Bees...).

Saw them live twice and they bored the crap out of me both times. Might give them another go at Roadburn, if they're not clashing with someone important.

tracks 1, 2, and 5 = holy shit

tracks 3 and 4 just kinda lull too much for me to take notice, but perhaps they'll grow on me with more listens. the other songs are SO FUCKING GOOD, though.

i will say one thing after one listen - karl blau's bass playing makes a world of difference on this album. it's a really weird dimension i've never heard on any of earth's albums. the cello is also a very nice touch.

i'm impressed. looking forward to listening to this one more. i didn't fully appreciate "the bees..." until my fourth or fifth listen, so i have a good feeling about this album.

Do we?

I bet you know something i do not!

Please, do tell!

I guess I'm the only person who liked Hex but felt everything they've done since has been boring shite....... especially that Bee Made Honey album.......

Actually Hibernaculum was okay too......

Earth is coming to Mx in March. I interviewed Dylan for Tiny Mix Tapes and told first hand.

I've heard rumors here and there, but so far nothing has been confirmed. However, you know i trust your words. Now i'm feeling really excited about this.

Thanks!

The official word will be next week, they'll confirm the date.

Lunario posted a date already on Twitter, and they said they'll be playing with the Melvins, same show.
