It's been almost 3 years

The last time Circa Survive put out an album I was in Times Square at midnight. We, myself and Alex, went to Virgin Records in the summer of 2007 on a weekend in NYC. There to see Bright Eyes, we made a trip to the store to pick up On Letting Go. We grabbed the album off the cart at midnight before they could even put it on the shelf and ran to the register. Unfortunately, being there with no computer, and sleeping in a hostel, there is little you can do with a CD.

In time though, I would listen and fall in love with this album. It is probably the best album artwork I have seen.

Today I got their 3rd album, Blue Sky Noise. Printed on blue vinyl and featuring the strangest art work I own, I couldn't have been more excited to find it waiting on my door step as I came home from class. And it was totally worth the wait. This band certainly is not everyone's cup of tea, but I have enjoyed everything they have made for 5 years now and am happy to say that hasn't changed after listening to this record today.
