Back in March or April, Casey said in an Instagram livestream that they are writing 3 books for The Indigo Child and were planning on releasing the first one around August.
Is that still the plan or is it planned to release later?
Hi, so I was looking to buying the Acts on Bandcamp and noticed a few differences in the mix and length of songs on Act II.
There may be more, but the few I have spotted are:
The footsteps at the end of The Procession are louder.
The Lake and The River is 16 seconds longer, and the piano section before the train arrives at 7:20 is a little longer. That section is shorter on the streaming and vinyl versions.
The Oracles' first second is louder too on Bandcamp.
The reprise of "The Procession" in Dear Ms. Leading doesn't fade in like the streaming mix.
There may be a few others but this is what I found. I have no real problem with it but I do wonder why they are different.
I remember seeing titles and lyrics from TCS that reminded me a lot of the Acts, and Casey even stated some of the songs could potentially be a part of the Acts as well. So I wanted to see which ones seemed most plausible.
We’ve Got A Score To Settle hearkens to In Cauda Venenum's line "When we settle the score"
Mandala reminds of The Lake And The River and His Hands Matched His Tongue with the line "So the veil can be lifted and the well will overflow"
Mr. Malum seems to be an early draft of Mr. Usher
I remember someone saying Home and A Beginning sounds familiar and are both about death, so maybe that one?
I swear there were more but I may be forgetting some lines and which songs have which.
Do you guys have any songs you think would fit, or could have been, in the Acts?
Hello!
I've been searching for a while now for this comic but cannot find anything. I have the previous comics digitally and part 3 physically, because that was the only thing on their website that shipped to Europe when the comics were for sale, so I was unable to get part 2. So I am asking if anyone has a digital scan of it they would be willing to share with me?
So I'm asking here if anyone has a digital copy or scan of the Act II part 2 comic?
Also, a harder find I'm looking for are the postcards and short comic from the Act III deluxe CD. Preferably digitally too.
I've been analysing and making a story outline/storyboard of the Acts and I noticed that the five stages of grief fit quite well within a few songs.
Denial = Red Hands ("Maybe this is just a work of art")
Bargaining = Where The Road Parts ("Meet me where the road parts" = to discuss their relationship/future. A little vague, but I couldn't find a better fit)
Anger = Dear Ms. Leading (also some denial with Hunter denying that he ever felt anything for Ms. Leading)
Depression = Vital Vessels Vindicate ("My eyes cry heavy tears"), also kind of the ending of In Cauda Venenum ("Traveled all this way just to find love")
Acceptance = Waves ("We knew exactly how it'd end")
Deliberate or not, I really like that there is some semblance of the fives stages of grief being used in the Acts.
