Rip Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Pretty sure they just mixed it up for the LP version like they've done before with previous albums. Hmm, that's really weird. I never paid attention enough on the previous albums I guess. Is there a reason they do this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisapple Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Figured out that Pistol is a great song to work out to. Definitely grew on me quickly That seems like a great way to channel my hate for this song. laralaurent 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aju2streets Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Hmm, that's really weird. I never paid attention enough on the previous albums I guess. Is there a reason they do this? I believe they usually do that to keep the running time as short as possible across each side because it allows for better sound quality.

JoToRoBo Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I like a few songs, like being the key word; I don't love anything on this album. Pistol is, without a doubt, garbage. So many of these songs sound exactly like old songs. I don't even know if it will grow on me. YOU'RE GARBAGE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want to keep a side as close to 20 minutes as possible, otherwise you start getting some pretty bad inner groove distortion over 20. 18-20 minutes is just about ideal, so you get those tracks mixed up to fit.

Shelby Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I don't hate this record after listening several times. I actually might kind of like it, I just wish the original ideas were better ideas. Listen to this and then The Tortoise and the Tourist Probably the most obvious reused idea [The Whale Song is much better though] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njpunkmusic Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 They totally killed it at webster last night. Sugar boats and wicked campaign are great live tunes Yea Ive seen sugarboats like 3 times live and loved it. Bummed I missed the webster hall shows, but after seeing them 3 times last year and multiple times before that I feel content on MM shows for a while bossdj26 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youspinmeround Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 So I actually sat down this morning and listened to this record through twice This is not a bad record at all. It sounds like Modest Mouse to me. Lyrics arent bad. Music is good Overall its a solid album sand Pistol. Does he fit in wit the rest of their catalog....yes it does Solid release Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daiei Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 The Best Room. The outro is my favourite part of the entire album. "Don't you know it's hard feeling tired all the time" Fuck yeah, it is. Where was this emotion during the other 14 tracks? darkforest71 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where was this emotion during the other 14 tracks? shit accidentally downvoted on my phone my bad! But for real, the whole album is full of emotion to me. Finally got the chance to listen to it yesterday and love it. Even god is an Indian had like two lines to it, but still so powerful. To ne its like god put this beauty here and we came along and are dicking it up all over the place. Album is fantastic in my eyes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kjkenney Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Well absolutely but I meant native Americans. The whole colonization of the whites and forcing the indigenous people into poverty and not appreciating what they stood for. THAT tidbit of history Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kjkenney Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Ah gotcha, I guess I didnt assume there would be such meaning behind bigotry.idk that's how i took it anyway. Also is maybe a nod back to Bukowski on 'Good News...'; "god takes life he's an Indian giver". I never know for sure with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never know for sure with them Well, you can never really know with Isaac haha. In Bukowski calling God an Indian giver is being mad at either God for taking lives back if he believes (he doesn't) or religion in general because followers devote their lives to God in return for his gift of life because they think it's expected of them (I think it's this one).
