Hi all, Long time JS fan (~25 years), first time poster. Just wondering if there will be a live album from the Unstoppable Momentum tour? I'm guessing no because it probably would have been produced by now, and it would be the 4th live album directly following a studio-album's tour. But just curious...

I love the new album! Can't stop listening to it.

Peregrine Wings grabbed me immediately, of course. But the rest of the album took a couple passes before it really grabbed me. (For context, Unstoppable, Black Swans and Colossal hooked me right away.) And then it hit me one day as I realized that I had various melodies from the album on constant repeat in my head for the past couple days. (The best earworm!)

Cataclysmic is my favorite so far, that song sends me into an alternate state.

Really looking forward to hearing these songs live.

I hope Joe made recordings from the Unstoppable Momentum tour. I would love to have a live album based on the UM & Shockwave tours!

This comment is perhaps 3 years late (or a decade early!) but I'll mention it anyway, on the outside chance that requests here make it to Joe's to-do list. :-)

I would love to see a remastered reissue of Unstoppable Momentum. I'm not a dynamic range obsessor, but I know what clipping and over-compression sound like.

Everyone has their own opinion about where music goes from sounding satisfyingly loud and thick (you want tot turn it up) to sounding like mashed potatoes (congested and tiring- you want to turn it down).

When I listen to Unstoppable Momentun, I want to turn it down. Unless Im in my noisy car, I want to turn it turn. The music and playing are brilliant but the recording doesn't do it justice, especially Vinnie's drumming. There a lot of songs on the album that are supposed to sound thick and loud, I get that. But too often the sound is congested. The crescendo at the end of the title song is the worst example I think. The music needs to expand but it just hits the wall.

IMO previous albums (Black Swans and before) all sound good. But UM really needs to be fixed.

If this would ever be considered, I hope it happens!
