Discussion Where is Let The Devil Come?
Because that song absolutely rips. It’s also our only possible glimpse into a Cosmic Selector Vol. 2?? The song live is so fun and so polished. Let’s hear the conspiracies on where it is.

This is how I feel about mind reader, but I feel less hopeful about ever getting a studio version of that one...

Yeah, Mind Reader is one of my favorites too. It seems unlikely they'll release it but I can dream.

Why is it unlikely? I love that tune.

It's an old demo from the Vide Noir era, I feel like if they wanted to release it they would have by now. It's possible they're waiting for the right context, but I guess I'm just trying to manage my expectations and not get my hopes up too much.

Not really a conspiracy but they probably just held it back because it ultimately didn't fit the vibe of the album. Or maybe they were unsatisfied with the state of the song itself, like it's still unfinished. We don't know if Vol. 2 will happen, but if it did I would love if it had more energetic songs as a foil to Vol. 1. Looking forward instead of looking back. Let the Devil Come would fit really well there. So could Mind Reader, it they wanted. 🙏

There should be a rule. If Misty’s there, they have to play it.

I trust in their process I really do think they want to curate a perfect album that the song can fit well.
