  1. When I listened to Chuckles I wasn't like "Wow this doesn't sound anything like their previous work, so it totally sucks!"

    I listened to Chuckles for what it was, and didn't like it for what it was.

    Perfectly understandable, since that does indeed happen from time to time. I just get a kick out of kids who shoot down a band's newest release because it's "too different" after the first listen... and then praise the album a few months later. Folks are just too quick to judge, in my opinion.

    But if it's different and entirely bad, that's a whole different story.

    Either way, I'm kind of eager to hear this album for new reasons, now. Namely to see where all the hate is coming from.

    I know what you mean, man. Been seeing so many people on other websites completely bashing this album. Saying stupid shit like, "These guys have lost all musical talent." and "Guess it's time for dredg to stop making music." It's ridiculous. ::)

    I think one of the main reasons it sounds so different is because they worked with a hip-hop producer on this album.

    I'm all for bands trying new stuff and experimenting with their sound, but this didn't work for dredg in my eyes.

  2. I try not to allow opinions to prematurely determine my verdict on an album. Especially if they're from people who've only played the album once, and immediately compare it to the rest of the band's work. Which seems to be almost everyone, sadly. But for what it's worth, the common opinion seems to be that Chuckles is just... bad. Or mediocre at best. I'll be saving my own opinion for an official listen, when something of quality surfaces.

  3. Also a big dredg fan, and I didn't like this at all..

    still waiting on El Cielo and Catch Without Arms vinyl. after their shitty attitude when they played with Circa Survive, i'm not sure i'm that much into them at all anymore.

    Really want those on vinyl too, and i saw them play with Rx Bandits same attitude. Still love these guys though.
