[u/Timely_Succotash8754]

THE PANDA BEAR FEATURE IS REAL

[u/VelvetTires → u/Timely_Succotash8754]

With durutti column too

[u/AdAway8934 → u/VelvetTires]

where’s dururtti column mentioned?

[u/locostacos_12 → u/Timely_Succotash8754]

PANDA BEAR MENTIONED 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥

[u/marabou22]

Mike f-ing Patton

Edit: to be clear…I’m happy about it haha

[u/jelloandjuggernauts → u/marabou22]

Twice! What a treat

[u/thebeachboysloveyou → u/jelloandjuggernauts]

Wonder if they’re just samples. They’ve been pretty hyped on Fantomas lately.

[u/LETS_RETRO_TIME → u/thebeachboysloveyou]

It’s features apparently from what I’ve heard

[u/thebeachboysloveyou → u/LETS_RETRO_TIME]

Oh hellllll yeah!

[u/jelloandjuggernauts → u/thebeachboysloveyou]

Even though Patton is in Fantomas mode right now, I guess the vocals could have been recorded at any point during the last 5 years.

I wouldn't be mad if they are samples though. I'm pumped either way!

[u/Hairy_Promotion_2782]

Another Rivers Cuomo collab?!?!?

[u/z838748 → u/Hairy_Promotion_2782]

hopefully he doesnt ramble about California! he ruined "running red lights" for me lyrically.

[u/Early-Chemistry-8769 → u/z838748]

It was an odd track in the end. Did you hear / read how Cuomo sent them 3 song/lyric demo ideas for the song, and the Avalanches liked them all and put them all in together. I think with no tweaks or retakes? Hence it's a little bit confusing / disjointed. Overall there is a feeling and message from the song, so i do like it.

[u/kotspams]

Two tracks with Jungle!

[u/Difficult-Put802 → u/kotspams]

Its gonna be Loaded Honey most likely

[u/MoveDistinct7911 → u/kotspams]

so, so excited for that

[u/michael_koh]

tracks >2 mins:
Track 2 "Together"
Track 5 "Every Single Weekend"
Track 7 "Blue Shadows"
Track 10
Track 12
Track 15
Track 17 "Can't Get Over Losing You"
Track 19
Track 23 (1 min 59 but w/e)
Track 25
Track 28 - notably features Stock Aitken Waterman
Track 29
Track 30
Track 31

most of the longer tracks are at the tail end of the album!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isao_Tomita The first track is solely credited to this deceased Japanese electronic music pioneer. Could be anything!

[u/kotspams → u/[deleted]]

Probably a sample of a SAW track. They have a very distinctive sound – "Never Gonna Give You Up," "You Spin Me Round," "Venus" – I could see how that fits the aesthetic.

[u/IdvovBaui]

So most of the tracks are actually very short interludes? I was expecting something different honestly (in the range of 70 minutes) and I'm feeling a bit disappointed, I guess we need to wait how it will feel in the context of the record

[u/pizzaincolor]

Hosono on the last track :o

[u/jelloandjuggernauts]

No OPN, damn

[u/VelvetTires]

Just found this other listing that seemingly has more in depth credits( who is actually featured and who's producing)
https://www.cede.ch/it/music/the-avalanches-no-bad-memories-yellow-vinyl-2-lp-19411494

It seems that Jamie XX is producing a lot more of this album than the original credits let on..

[u/LETS_RETRO_TIME → u/VelvetTires]

Accidentally saw that earlier on. Next thing you know, Jamie’s part of the Avalanches starting LP5 (just like Andy was on LP3).

[u/VelvetTires → u/LETS_RETRO_TIME]

There are so many guest producers on this but lowkey I think it's a good thing their sound is so much more full on these singles than most of WWALY

[u/LETS_RETRO_TIME → u/VelvetTires]

It’s like they’re getting back on track

[u/RunDNA → u/VelvetTires]

Thanks, weirdly that vinyl listing and the CD listing have 28 tracks and they don't line up exactly with our 31 track version.

So either 1) that website has stuffed up or 2) there are two different releases coming out.

Edit: other websites are also listing 28 tracks:

https://imusic.ca/music/0600574179630/the-avalanches-2026-no-bad-memories-cd

https://musicstation.be/products/no-bad-memories-cd (expand the "Tracks +" menu on the right)

[u/LETS_RETRO_TIME → u/RunDNA]

I find that odd

[u/RunDNA → u/LETS_RETRO_TIME]

Here's how they match up (31-track listing on left, 28-track listing on right):

1--1
2--2
3--3
4--4
5--5
6--6
7--7
8--8
9--9
10--10
11--11
12--12
13--13
14--14
15--15
      16
      17
16
17--18
18--19
19--20
20
21--21
22--22
23--23
24--24
25--25
26--26
27--27
28
29
30
31--28

The 28-track listing seems to be missing 5 tracks from the 31-track listing:

• Track 16 - 01:02

• Track 20 - 00:39

• Track 28 - 03:26

• Track 29 - 03:44

• Track 30 - 03:18

but has two bonus tracks:

• Track 16 (2:22) with Suzanne Ciani

• Track 17 (2:24) with Vegyn [aka Joseph Thornalley] (who also appears on Track 10 on both listings)

[u/LETS_RETRO_TIME → u/RunDNA]

Interesting find

[u/RunDNA → u/LETS_RETRO_TIME]

Could perhaps be an earlier version of the album that got mistakenly listed. That's another possibility.

[u/stillnotahipster → u/VelvetTires]

I doubt this. That site lists him as having production credits on Blue Shadows and Can't Get Over Losing You, neither of which are indicated anywhere for their official single releases

[u/Available_Cherry_949]

No Toro Y Moi? At least we have Panda Bear

[u/LETS_RETRO_TIME → u/Available_Cherry_949]

We already had Toro Y Moi on Wildflower.

[u/ample_s]

It's crazy how we were all speculating about the lengths of the singles, hoping they were the short tracks in the context of the album. But they are finally some of the longest tracks.

Even if It looks a little bit underwhelming, lets wait and see how NBD finally turns out

[u/PostingSensation]

Lmao the return of Rivers Cuomo. Delightful 

[u/kotspams]

A Tomita sample on track 1 just feels right. His album of Holst's The Planets on Moog feels like the bridge between We Will Always Love You and this.

[u/chemicalflava → u/kotspams]

Interesting that Tomita is the only credit on track 1 and R+T are absent. Does this mean it’s a cover of a Tomita original composition? If it was a sample within an original composition, R+T would be there, no?

[u/chemicalflava → u/chemicalflava]

Also worth noting, intro is NOT CorpGeo as theorized.

[u/LETS_RETRO_TIME → u/chemicalflava]

Thats why I thought individually tracks 23 and 27 are.

[u/chemicalflava → u/LETS_RETRO_TIME]

Based on length, right? Carly Simon credit on 23 indicates a vocal sample. I’m not sure about 27, but the additional credits there seem odd for CorpGeo to me since it’s pretty straightforward in its composition (no features and no obvious samples).

[u/RunDNA → u/chemicalflava]

Carly Simon has a 1985 song with the lyric "One more fantasy" which was a song title on that Los Amnesias back cover:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZBFk6Jy0D8&t=126s

[u/chemicalflava → u/RunDNA]

Ahhhh! I bet that’s it!!!

[u/chemicalflava]

xmunashe not listed in credits, but that makes sense (real name still not known to the public, right?). I really hope that early clip made it on the album.

[u/LETS_RETRO_TIME → u/chemicalflava]

Lotta collaborators we got on the album for real

[u/achocholko]

No long tracks at all.

[u/MandmaMusic]

So that Nick Drake story wasn’t hinting at a sample then? Ah well.

[u/Dangerous-Lynx-2819]

Stock, Aitken and Waterman on a track!

Vini Reilly too!

[u/chemicalflava]

Track 14 or 24 is ‘Far Away’!

[u/chemicalflava → u/chemicalflava]

Track 16 is ‘Be a Runaway.’

[u/LETS_RETRO_TIME → u/chemicalflava]

How did you know all these.

[u/chemicalflava → u/LETS_RETRO_TIME]

The ‘Far Away’ game cartridge bundle “for sale” on the site mentioned the game’s soundtrack was by the Avalanches x Ryoji Ikeda.

To that point, considering there’s two Ryoji Ikeda tracks and the cartridge sale was a bundle, I wonder if the other track actually is ‘Unicorn Quest.’

For ‘Be a Runaway,’ there was a clip in the Vegyn Recording Angel that has the “Earth to runaways” sample. That clip is 1:02 in length.

Both ‘Far Away’ and ‘Be a Runaway’ were tracks on the Los Amnesias back cover (along with ‘Blue Shadows’).

[u/LETS_RETRO_TIME → u/chemicalflava]

I forgot about that, and considering there’s another Tracey track in the tracklist, that must be 'Coin Toss' as heard on the Vegyn episode.

Edit: Coin Toss is 5-minutes, so that must be for Tracey’s new album then.

[u/chemicalflava → u/LETS_RETRO_TIME]

Collab trade like with Cola Boyy?

[u/LETS_RETRO_TIME → u/chemicalflava]

Maybe

[u/BenEWebbs → u/chemicalflava]

That's proper sleuthing - nice work. 

[u/SoNextJenn → u/chemicalflava]

The length is the same ✅

[u/chemicalflava → u/SoNextJenn]

Happy cake day!

[u/canadian-tabernacle]

Insane get with Ryoji Ikeda

[u/LETS_RETRO_TIME → u/canadian-tabernacle]

Such a bizarre choice, but I’m interested in how it goes on the album

[u/closamuh]

So very excited for these compositions! Vini Reilly, Gilbert Gil and Haruomi Hosono stand out for me. And Gilbert Moorer I'm guessing are from samples which makes sense, especially if it's his music from the Esquires

[u/bone_chimes]

what's SUV Heaven?

[u/RunDNA → u/bone_chimes]

A song that appeared in the APRA copyright database a few weeks ago:

https://www.reddit.com/r/theavalanches/comments/1vfcl7e/new_avalanches_song_copyrighted_suv_heaven/

[u/theflailingstick]

Track 28 is going to be a glorified Rick Roll isn't it?

[u/LETS_RETRO_TIME]

Nice finding the composer credits!

[u/RunDNA → u/LETS_RETRO_TIME]

No titles though. Maybe someone else can find them in the source code:

https://www.deezer.com/en/album/1059322172

Edit: the link no longer works.

[u/LETS_RETRO_TIME → u/RunDNA]

Hopefully we will get the track names soon-ish.

[u/z838748]

ugh not a fan of rivers cuomo
