The album is being described as more melodic and dynamic than the previous album. The album is also more guitar-oriented.[1] "The majority of the material on the new record was written by Mats Haugen and he has taken the music to a kind of simpler and more accessible approach, yet kept the progressive elements and the "nerve" that is Circus Maximus" says Truls Haugen. Circus Maximus will appear live in some selected shows in the summer before launching a full-scale tour in support of the new album. [2]

Glen Cato Møllen, the bassist of the band, told about the differences among Nine and the other two albums: "Two huge elements in the new material are first and foremost the evolution of the songwriting and the accessibility of the music. When you combine that with a new sound and production, you have a pretty different outcome from what we did on “Isolate”. We have been and always will be super proud of what we accomplished with the previous albums, but I think we’ve taken it to the next level with the new stuff".[3]

gollark: With Express.js the server thing would look *very roughly* like this:```javascriptconst express = require("express")const multer = require("multer")const app = express()const upload = multer({ storage: multer.memoryStorage(), limits: { fileSize: 2**22 // 4MiB maximum filesize }})app.get("/image", (req, res) => { res.send(loadImageFromSomewhere())})// send upload form HTML - you would need to write this tooapp.get("/upload", (req, res) => res.sendFile("upload.html"))app.post("/upload", upload.single("file"), (req, res) => { saveImageSomewhere(req.file.buffer)})app.listen(8700, () => console.log("listening")) // listen on port 8700```
gollark: I mean, you could use PHP too. I don't like it. But you could.
gollark: What I might do, though there are probably many ways to: make a program in Node.js or whatever (personal preference) which responds with whatever image is set to any requests for that, and which allows you to upload an image, converts it to the right format, then saves it to be sent when the ESP requests it.
gollark: And you want to be able to upload pictures to some sort of web thing to send to the ESP?
gollark: That... sounds possible though I don't know exactly what you mean.
