Why are there vocals on all these new songs? This part is so much better

I personally like this.  I've loved STS9 since the beginning, and do not feel this new material is compromising the band.  I like the vocals.  enough of the STS9 I know and love is still there, with some fresh new sounds.  IMO better than doing something that is the same as before.

I'm not loving these new songs so far. But of course we will all keep listening to whatever they put out, just only listen to it once.

I am not digging the overwhelming amount of vocal samples on these initial tracks.  To be honest, the tones, simple beats, click track style of production just doesnt draw me in. This ART you have created appeals to someone somewhere sometime.  Much love and respect to you and the crew. Stay True.

something about the production is just off... respect to your dedication, though.

I had to try and listen to this again...Fuck me.  This is just depressing.  Horseshit.  I cant even sugar coat this crap.  I want to like it, but I cant.

TRIBE THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR. i'm so excited for this album. wonderful progression

the vocals ruin it in my opinion. rest of the song is stellar.

“Give & Take” is about the things that bind us to one another: friends, family, life and death. The song is dedicated to a special person close to the band who said, before she passed, that her life “all seems like a dream.” It’s a sentiment that is reflected in the lyrics and overall feeling of “Give & Take".

STS9's "The Universe Inside" is coming September 2nd!

Give & Take (from 'The Universe Inside' coming September 2)

20 years before the emergence of STS9, NASA sent Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 on a mission to the farthest reaches of the solar system and beyond. Each of these probes was equipped with identical Golden Records, special messages attached to what Carl Sagan called “a bottle launched into the cosmic ocean.” They contained numerous images and sounds from throughout the world, pieces of music from various cultures, a map identifying the location of our planet, and other information for whomever, or whatever, might find them.

While the Golden Records included greetings in 59 languages, they made no mention of nations and borders, wars and rivalries, or anything else that divides us. What they did mention was life, love, peace, birth--the things that bind us to one another and to the planet we call home. 

The Universe Inside is a reflection of this message. It is a story about human identity and the magical truth of who we are, where we’re going, and our place in the Universe. It says we are one, made of stardust and the forces of nature that evolved over billions of years. Connected by the sun, moon and stars, we are the living, breathing conscience of the Universe. 

"We are one, made from dust of the stars / down here we bear the weight of the pain and the scars / just want to live with nothing to hide / every one of us a universe inside."
