the world is a beautiful plate and I am no longer afraid to dine

yeah that's how i feel, i write and read lots of poetry and am usually into this sort of thing so it's got to be pretty ridiculous for me to be as turned off as i was by when he played with them. i way prefer to just hear the instruments breath here, it's not like this band needed another instrument/voice thrown into the mix, especially when it just feels so forced. 
 
i think he talked more than the rest of the band, at one point going on about how cool it was that a biracial gay man could be on stage with TWIABP and i just felt like really? is the concert, the music, the people there not itself special enough? must we try to imbue some sort of social agenda into it? seems a little self involved to make it about that. 
 
not really into his poetry in general, seems like a cool dude and it's not terrible, there are nice lines here and there, but it definitely tries too hard and has some super corny lines despite dealing with the essentials like childhood, nostalgia, death.....it just doesn't feel real, and most of his lines feel like stuff that other writers have already done better. i feel like this collaboration speaks volumes about the quality of his work. good for the band just having fun and going for it, and good for Chris Z getting the opportunity, i even ordered the record to see if it grows on me, but i have been about as unimpressed with his work and this collaboration as unimpressed gets. in a lot of ways, he seems to be a culmination of a lot of the stuff i find obnoxious about the north east literary scene. trying to do the artistic/experimental prose but still keeping everything sort of nicely tied up, trying to put forth this really bare honest image but i'm not entirely convinced that he's bleeding. it doesn't feel real. 
 
sorry for being a hater guys, i bet Chris Z. is cool as shit and i'm still glad this music came to fruition, but i would almost rather the songs have just been instrumental, because yeah from I've heard live/from singles it all felt really forced. 
 
edit: for what it's worth i thought Space Exploration was pretty solid on it's own though

too bad the guy actually doing the spoken word is the corniest motherfucker alive

whenever, if ever

I'm quite lucky, every time I go to a goodwill I find Garth Brooks tapes

While still enjoying their debut full length, I've kinda grown to dislike the band and their release/money-making policies. This whole "let's put out thirty+ variants of every note we record"-strategy is an unsympathetic way to go imo. I'm not remotely into variant collecting, so my dismay doesn't have anything to do with being frustrated by having an incomplete collection, I just seem to grow tired of the hype. Also not interested in this new album/ep/split/whatever.

Need to hear a song, spoken word guy sorta blows. May just get the rare because I know I can pawn it off easily if it does suck.

Last couple of test presses I got I ended up throwing away.  They're only good for testing.  Once the testing is done, what's the point of keeping it around? 

Pointless thread is pointless.
