I agree '1997 DIANA' is a little too short and could do with being fleshed out a little - now I've finally actually listened through the first two 'SATURATION' albums (shall hear the third one soon xx) I've found that's the case with a few of their other songs as well, I think 'JESUS' in particular sounded really great but just needed to be a bit longer. It's like it's more of a snippet than a full song.
'1998 TRUMAN' has become my favourite of this new era thus far now, both of the hooks are proper earworms. I think Bearface is actually the low point on that song when he was probably my favourite part of '1999 WILDFIRE' lol ~ Hoping we'll get another new song soon ;o (aside: this thread title should probably just be changed to 'The Best Years Of Our Lives') |

I saw on Instagram and SCREAMED !!!
Adoring the graphics, but the 'Made In London' part suggests that it's all been made this week, since they've been in London and a few other UK cities since last Saturday (not Birmingham tho🙃) - which may indicate that the 99/98/97 trio could be excluded from the album? God knows, but I don't think they'll follow the numbers theme anymore. |

"1999 WILDFIRE" is on the Radio 1 playlist! Can't believe it, absolutely over the moon.

Apparently they accidentally leaked the date as 21st September and then quickly edited it. x
I feel like there's a chance the 3 songs so far won't be on the album as well (since they changed the title again so the song titles don't seem to fit the album title any more) but idec as long as the album actually does drop this time xx (also :cheeseblock: at them making it to the R1 playlist) |

Floored at them being on the R1 playlist *.* Also, I was so excited when I saw that they were touring earlier on social media... until I read that it was in North America... dammit
 they better come to the UK at some point! Fully expecting these songs so far not to make it as well with the album title change (who knows about TONYA, although the YouTube live performance removal is suspicious) which is a shame as I adore '1999 WILDFIRE' but ah well, I'm sure they'll deliver as ever.

To be honest, I'd be very surprised if they're not in the top 5 of BBC Sound of 2019 list, if not win it.

Yep they're going with September 21st (just one week now!!) and here is the cover art and track list:
https://twitter.com/brckhmptn/status/1040441554966441984   So just 'TONYA' making it from the songs we've heard so far. Although, if you look closely then it says that this is 'From the trilogy The Best Days Of Our Lives' so maybe the others are still to come at some point? Who knows tbh but I'm so happy that we're getting another trilogy. |

Looks like there's a documentary as well as the album! Trailer uploaded to their channel which includes them talking about Ameer a bit. |

ONE WEEK TO GO *___*
I can't wait for this, I adored "TONYA" so it's nice to see we'll get a studio version. Also, Kevin's said on Twitter a few times that they're going to move to London, which would be great - meant more UK shows  Would be disappointed with anything less than album of the year tbh x |

I'm resisting getting an Australian Spotify account to listen to it... BUT everyone on the BH Reddit is treating it like the best album ever released, apparently it's more experimental than they were expecting !!
SO HYPED, less than 7 hours 'til I can listen

"J'OUVERT" is out and it's by far the most experimental thing they've ever put out - if you're not usually a BH fan then I wouldn't even go near this one (I think I love it though) |

The first album I’ve listened to at midnight on release day since The xx’s ‘I See You’ *.* LOVE it. Experimental BROCKHAMPTON but still unmistakably them at the same time, great progression. Too many highlights to mention but I’ve gotta say that the trio of WHERE THE CASH AT / WEIGHT / DISTRICT is everything <3

Really loving the experimentation on this, need to listen to the album more as I think a lot of it will be growers (it doesn't have many songs with instant hooks like the 'SATURATION' trilogy) but I'm not let down at all on first listen.
'NEW ORLEANS', 'WEIGHT' (that dnb beat switch *.* think this is probably the best song on there), 'DISTRICT', 'J'OUVERT' (JOBA's verse on this is amazing) and 'FABRIC' were the biggest immediate highlights for me. 'WHERE THE CASH AT' and 'VIVID' too but they're too short, always a couple of those on every one of their albums. Also just seen this album will be coming out on vinyl yass x |

Not gonna lie on first listen last night I was massively underwhelmed, but WOW after relistening today it's superb
 Early highlights for me are "TAPE", "TONYA", "SOMETHING ABOUT HIM" and "WEIGHT"

New music video from this campaign! Low budget / effort goals  This was my least favourite song on the album upon first listen oops but it's already growing a bit after hearing it on R1 the other day and subsequently revisiting it now. |

Album debuted at #2 in New Zealand, which is particularly impressive because that chart is almost entirely streaming based and it's really hard to do well without hit singles.
