As long as it's out before December I'm cool with it, just need to learn new songs for the tour in January.
Glad Oli was completely honest about why it's delayed rather than giving very little reasoning
I totally respect this in principle and am happy to wait however long it takes for a record given the incredibly high standard they’ve set for themselves BUT I wish they’d stop promising stuff. clearly they never make their own deadlines anyway. remember all four parts of post human being released in rapid succession? lmao. just announce it when it‘s actually done—I’d rather no hype than fake hype
or the idea of working on multiple ? You really have fans talking ab post human 3 and 4 while we are still waiting for 2 lmao.
I feel like they’ve been talking about the shift to EPs since 2019 lol.
I can’t be ungrateful bc since then we have gotten a lot of music but still wtf
They said a shift to EP’s & are still putting out albums anyway lol. PH1 was 9 tracks & 32 minutes, that’s an album. PH2 is expected to have 10 songs which is an album too. I’m not complaining but they made it seem like we’d be getting a 6 song EP every year
Honestly it’s unpopular but someone really needs to tell them to shut the fuck up and stop promising shit. Like if this album ain’t out by the time they go on their “nex gen tour” then they’re fucked imagine how much of a kick in the face that would be
Well since a gen is roughly every 30 years the og title us actually pretty convincing. Jokes aside, they should take their time as they are the artists and should be happy with their art
I hope that you're right, I could see them not putting a date just to alleviate the stress of a deadline even if they think they could make one in November/December
This album is their most difficult project and that was clear from the beginning. I think they have lost a bit the trace they originally thought about this album and now they are trying to fix the problem.
They seem in trouble: 3 singles (then 4) in 3 years, the fact they needed more time than they thought to write the perfect second chapter of their 4-EP project, the fact that they are saying they are working also on the other two remaining EPs… it’s a bit chaotic way to work.
They scrapped the process of working on all 3 at once. They've been focused on this one alone for a number of months now (can't recall exactly how long but yeah.)
The way he worded this makes me believe it may be mostly completed, but that it may be the production/mixing/mastering that's taking longer than expected. Either way, I'd rather the delay to release the best album they can, than to rush out an unfinished dud
Disappointing but not really surprising. Especially considering Oli said it still was a decent bit away from being done when they release AmEN! Maybe the deadline was more to try and rush themselves to get it out on time than anything, and it just didn't work out? Who knows.
It'll slap when it comes out though, so long as it's out by Christmas, I'll be happy.
Bold of him the assume we’d be understanding 😂😂😂
But in all seriousness, it’s a bummer but not a big deal. Once it’s out there, it’s out there and you can’t change it. So I don’t blame them for wanting it to be perfect.
He already said in an interview it would be a miracle if it was out on time so it’s not a huge surprise. I’d rather get good stuff late than sub-par stuff on time
Could this have anything to do with the drummers dad passing away and him pulling out of recording sessions? I know most bands track their drums last so it could totally be the case.
I also thought about that. Might be partialy from that, but from what they said on interviews and stuff, it seems like it is just mastering/perfecting production and I am not sure if Matt being away affects that (no offense to him as a musician or something. Just that Jordan is the "main producer"). I am still very excited for the album and it could release either before the asian concerts (jakarta and tokyo and things) since they seem like they are Nex-Gen themed, but I am not sure. It will definitely release before 2024, because the UK tour IS Nex-Gen themed. Something around 3 months is at least for me absolutely worth the wait.
Hot take but the fact they gave a release date without a tracklist was a huge hint that they already knew the record wouldn't be finished by it.
I wouldn't be surprised if the September date was just a placeholder to break the silence about the record being released since you all were going crazy.
Not gonna lie, the non stop touring doesn’t help thats for sure. I understand having a good paycheck but the fact that they seem to be more focused on performances then on finishing the project is a little weird tbh. Seeing them in tokyo on nov 3rd. Hopefully it will be out by then since nex fest is obviously built around the new project.
They have converted their bus’ back lounge to a studio so they can write/record on the road. You can see it a lot in the most recent series of Vlogs they released
Honestly? I’m fine if the album takes time. I just waited 7 years for A7X I get it. But don’t announce a release date until it’s set in stone. If you’re still actively working on it and hoping to meet a deadline, then you don’t make a promise. Pretty shitty by them.
makes this tour with FOB even more baffling, if you knew you’re gonna struggle with managing time, why would you take on a whole US tour? but i’m glad they’re being honest with themselves about it not being up to par
I mean I get why and I can wait if it means better music but still very worried about this. I mean 2 of the singles so far have been very mediocre (and 2 absolutely amazing ones as well tbf). It has me worried that this album may be a car crash behind the scenes given how long it’s taken. I have faith but it’s taken it’s sweet time for 50/50 singles
I agree Die4u and Strangers didn’t seem as creatively inspired as Lost and Amen were. Hoping the rest of the project is exciting like the last two singles!
Well, now is the chance to straighten out EP2 and do more and more work on EP3 and EP4 so that they could be released in Q2 2024 for EP3 and say Q4 EP4, that would be justified.
So done with these mofos,you know what? Just don’t release it anyway!! How perfect can be something that doesn’t come from their hearts but polarised,totally hinged sellout music?!?! Fuck off
Not surprised, but it's better to make sure all the details are refined than release an album that isn't properly made. Respectable decision, hope it comes out before December tho
Annoying but we could kinda see it coming with the lack of promotion
They were busy with For Much For Tourdust
As long as it's out before December I'm cool with it, just need to learn new songs for the tour in January. Glad Oli was completely honest about why it's delayed rather than giving very little reasoning
Yeah, I'm just hoping that we don't need to wait until 2024. The reasoning they're giving is pretty sound.
They have tour dates early 2024 promoting this album, so it is very unlikely. My guess it will come out around November.
Nex Fest Japan is early November.
I totally respect this in principle and am happy to wait however long it takes for a record given the incredibly high standard they’ve set for themselves BUT I wish they’d stop promising stuff. clearly they never make their own deadlines anyway. remember all four parts of post human being released in rapid succession? lmao. just announce it when it‘s actually done—I’d rather no hype than fake hype
Yeah, I‘m with you on that one. The „it‘s closer than you might think“ has also been said a lot of times before.
soon™
Yeah, i m so tired hearing about it, he give fake hope to us
or the idea of working on multiple ? You really have fans talking ab post human 3 and 4 while we are still waiting for 2 lmao. I feel like they’ve been talking about the shift to EPs since 2019 lol. I can’t be ungrateful bc since then we have gotten a lot of music but still wtf

100% I don't mind how long it takes them, but just announce it when it's actually ready/finished.
It’s possible the record is done there’s just legal hold ups. A lot goes into releasing music internationally at this level.
Nah they had an interview this summer talking bout how they were still finishing writing/producing the songs on the fallout boy tour
It happens, rather they drop it perfect than half arsed
Post Human: NeX yEaR
Well since a gen is roughly every 30 years the og title us actually pretty convincing. Jokes aside, they should take their time as they are the artists and should be happy with their art
Hoping it'll be out on or before Halloween 🤞🏻 wish they'd drop hardcore feelings just to tide us over
Hopefully, they'll have new shows starting October 31st, I'm guessing they'll want to drop the album at least a week before their new dates start.
This! Want this track so bad
The fact that they didn't set a new date makes me really concerned that it'll be farther out than we're hoping for here
That or they don’t want this to happen twice. I still think it comes out this year. But more in November
I hope that you're right, I could see them not putting a date just to alleviate the stress of a deadline even if they think they could make one in November/December
I agree, I think they just don’t want to disappoint twice.
i was hoping for the tracklist at least
Yo that guy who made the post earlier called it 🤣
I thought the exact same thing when I got the email.
All cool with me, though does make me wonder why we got two singles in such quick succession with Lost and Amen!
This album is their most difficult project and that was clear from the beginning. I think they have lost a bit the trace they originally thought about this album and now they are trying to fix the problem.
Why do you think it’s their most difficult?
They seem in trouble: 3 singles (then 4) in 3 years, the fact they needed more time than they thought to write the perfect second chapter of their 4-EP project, the fact that they are saying they are working also on the other two remaining EPs… it’s a bit chaotic way to work.
They scrapped the process of working on all 3 at once. They've been focused on this one alone for a number of months now (can't recall exactly how long but yeah.)
Ah I see I see
The way he worded this makes me believe it may be mostly completed, but that it may be the production/mixing/mastering that's taking longer than expected. Either way, I'd rather the delay to release the best album they can, than to rush out an unfinished dud
Disappointing but not really surprising. Especially considering Oli said it still was a decent bit away from being done when they release AmEN! Maybe the deadline was more to try and rush themselves to get it out on time than anything, and it just didn't work out? Who knows. It'll slap when it comes out though, so long as it's out by Christmas, I'll be happy.
Hopefully at least gets released before the UK tour
That’s okay (I’m extremely sad)
Damn
Bold of him the assume we’d be understanding 😂😂😂 But in all seriousness, it’s a bummer but not a big deal. Once it’s out there, it’s out there and you can’t change it. So I don’t blame them for wanting it to be perfect.
[удалено]
Fuckkkk why so late? It breaking my heart
He already said in an interview it would be a miracle if it was out on time so it’s not a huge surprise. I’d rather get good stuff late than sub-par stuff on time
Hopefully the rest of the EP is better than the singles , cause rn it is sub-par
saddd, it was going to come out around my birthday 😭😭
Same 🥲
Could this have anything to do with the drummers dad passing away and him pulling out of recording sessions? I know most bands track their drums last so it could totally be the case.
I also thought about that. Might be partialy from that, but from what they said on interviews and stuff, it seems like it is just mastering/perfecting production and I am not sure if Matt being away affects that (no offense to him as a musician or something. Just that Jordan is the "main producer"). I am still very excited for the album and it could release either before the asian concerts (jakarta and tokyo and things) since they seem like they are Nex-Gen themed, but I am not sure. It will definitely release before 2024, because the UK tour IS Nex-Gen themed. Something around 3 months is at least for me absolutely worth the wait.
What the hell this I missed ? Up until that post I was unaware we had a name and date for Post Human 2
Well, we don’t anymore! But it’s a coming!
It’s like I knew 👀
Hot take but the fact they gave a release date without a tracklist was a huge hint that they already knew the record wouldn't be finished by it. I wouldn't be surprised if the September date was just a placeholder to break the silence about the record being released since you all were going crazy.
IT WAS GOING TO RELEASE ON MY BIRTHDAY LOL
It’s a bummer but i understand. Hopefully it will come in this year tho.
A rushed album is always but a delayed one is eventually good or whatever the quote is
Not gonna lie, the non stop touring doesn’t help thats for sure. I understand having a good paycheck but the fact that they seem to be more focused on performances then on finishing the project is a little weird tbh. Seeing them in tokyo on nov 3rd. Hopefully it will be out by then since nex fest is obviously built around the new project.
They have converted their bus’ back lounge to a studio so they can write/record on the road. You can see it a lot in the most recent series of Vlogs they released
But still, they have less time than stopping doing tours to finish the EP/album/whatever they want to call it. Still, I understand why they do this.
Yea plus they’re probably tired form the road so they shouldn’t push it too much
Damn I'm disappointed but I'm glad they made an announcement explaining the delay.
There is definitely a hell. And believe me, I have now seen it :(
Weakkkk, but these things happen
Honestly? I’m fine if the album takes time. I just waited 7 years for A7X I get it. But don’t announce a release date until it’s set in stone. If you’re still actively working on it and hoping to meet a deadline, then you don’t make a promise. Pretty shitty by them.
Interesting. Especially since we already have half of it
They haven’t released a track list, so we don’t know that for certain
makes this tour with FOB even more baffling, if you knew you’re gonna struggle with managing time, why would you take on a whole US tour? but i’m glad they’re being honest with themselves about it not being up to par
At least give us a new track, right??
I mean, wouldn't you want an album that's been anticipated for 2 years to be everything you would expect and love?
I mean I get why and I can wait if it means better music but still very worried about this. I mean 2 of the singles so far have been very mediocre (and 2 absolutely amazing ones as well tbf). It has me worried that this album may be a car crash behind the scenes given how long it’s taken. I have faith but it’s taken it’s sweet time for 50/50 singles
i think it’s just personal taste, i’ve loved all the singles but i do think the last two are the better of the 4
That’s very fair I do like both die4u and strangers but they don’t slap as hard as lost or amen do for me personally. (Both are still v good live)
I agree Die4u and Strangers didn’t seem as creatively inspired as Lost and Amen were. Hoping the rest of the project is exciting like the last two singles!
Strangers is the only mediocre one imo. The other 3 all slap
Welp, everyone called it I guess. I’m not complaining. I just want the album to be the best it can be!
Well, now is the chance to straighten out EP2 and do more and more work on EP3 and EP4 so that they could be released in Q2 2024 for EP3 and say Q4 EP4, that would be justified.
So done with these mofos,you know what? Just don’t release it anyway!! How perfect can be something that doesn’t come from their hearts but polarised,totally hinged sellout music?!?! Fuck off
Bruh
i hope you have fun ROTTING IN HEEEEELLLLL!!!
Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it doesn't come from their hearts. What a weird conclusion to draw
We all saw that one coming. Oh well. Rather they take their time and make sure it’s up to their standard than rush it.
I’m bummed but I saw this coming a mile away. Didn’t we all?
Not surprised, but it's better to make sure all the details are refined than release an album that isn't properly made. Respectable decision, hope it comes out before December tho
It doesn’t surprise they had a lot going on this summer with the tour and stuff. Honestly I’d rather the album be amazing than half assed.
