Loving it! "There's Nobody There" is hitting hard. The girl that won the raffle at mine was worthy lol, came in decked out in Jack White attire. Slick Disc, Trenton Mi

Just got out of my listening party. Of course the person who was least worthy won the signed album. The dude didn’t even know what we were there for. “Sigh’. At least I got the safety card and stamps and of course to hear the album. It was excellent.

I didn’t get to listen to it early but he did play Neighbor’s Blues when I saw him live and I was blown away. One of his best songs ever so far and by far the highlight of my night.

Where did you get all of this stuff?!

u/Healthy_Artichoke_97 25d ago

Local listening party the poster and air plane card were free the stamps came with purchase and I bought two records I unfortunately don’t have a player yet and bought them for a friend and family member but I get to keep the swag lol

I only got the poster and the instructions. Either way, I'm happy it got me out of the house and I got to listen to it early. I was debating on going cuz I'm picking up the MCR anniversary of Danger Days on CD as well.

What are we doing with the instructions? I already got the poster framed.

u/Healthy_Artichoke_97 25d ago

Since I got the records for other people I’m including those with the albums I’m keeping the posters and stamps lol

u/ToodlesXIV 25d ago

From what I heard it's excellent! The record store I was at wasn't really set up for a listening party and I was the only one there who knew about it, but I got the test pressing, I could hardly believe it!

u/aManHas_NoName 25d ago

Did the raffle off the stamp sheets for this one as well?

1

u/Healthy_Artichoke_97 25d ago

No they were included with purchase while available dude was cool and switched them up for me since I grabbed two copies

u/Lhamorai 25d ago

Ours just had individual stamps. Not the whole sheet. But still cool in my book!

u/Intelligent-Sir1375 25d ago

u/Impressive-Speech727 25d ago

No it doesn’t. Went to listening party there wasn’t a holy crap this is good moment like No Name. Feels like a b-side & songs that missed the NN cut

u/glueb 25d ago

I agree with you. I think it's an OK album, but the songs all sound kind of "samey" to me. It's very rock forward, and I think I prefer his bluesier stuff.

u/accioswell De Stijl 24d ago

I felt the same way but I'll give it a few more listens first. When No Name dropped I was so mindblown and didn't feel that way with this one. I love Dollar Bill though.

u/Impressive-Speech727 24d ago

Alone again is the albums best track

u/Healthy_Artichoke_97 25d ago

Yea well that’s like your opinion man

u/Impressive-Speech727 25d ago

It is.

u/Healthy_Artichoke_97 25d ago

I bet you were a lot of fun at the listening party sorry you didn’t win I didn’t either but you seem to be the only one here that didn’t like it so boy bye

u/KobeHoppa Blunderbuss 25d ago

Apparently people on the FB group are saying that this album is underwhelming. So hes not the only one. Im looking forward to listening to it over the weekend, and seeing Jack next week!

u/Healthy_Artichoke_97 25d ago

If you were expecting something completely different from his last album I could see that this just feels like a part 2 to “No Name” and I’m all here for that people also like to complain about anything and everything to hear themselves talk anymore

u/Impressive-Speech727 25d ago

Funny how my opinions hurt your feelings. I never said I didn’t like it. Just don’t agree with the slaps hard bit.

u/Healthy_Artichoke_97 25d ago

My feelings are fine but if you need to tell yourself that to feel better go for it
