Fowty Dollaz Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 I've seen Conor (in some incarnation) a bunch of times in the past 10 years. There have been performances that were stone cold sober and absolutely wonderful (Carnegie Hall in 2012 comes to mind) and times he was shithoused and it was noticeably bad (about 4-5 years ago) and times he was definitely drunk as hell but still did a great job (the last time I saw Bright Eyes). I think he's probably "fine" as much as drunk can be. Does he probably need help? Yes, we've all heard his songs. Is he super-wealthy? Yeah. He'll be fine, and he's seemingly self-aware enough to know when enough is enough. TL;DR- what @Shitty Rambo said, and just issue refunds where appropriate and keep making the money for the two normal guys in BE and the rest of the backing band.

Couldn’t find it in my email until I checked my junk folder. My order is delayed too. I ordered all six records so kinda figured a delay was inevitable.

Multiverse Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 After listening to the three of these I think I need to stop preordering Bright Eyes stuff, didn't dig the last album and I'm pretty indifferent about these three EPs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the newest album though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchard Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 The new version of Falling Out of Love at This Volume is a jam, but the original has always been one of my favorite Bright Eyes songs. The Collection of Songs EP is still the only one I really felt like I needed to order. Keep passing when I have the opportunity to grab this others... they just haven't done anything for me. Still excited to see what they decide do with the rest of the albums, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were instant preorders but now I'm not sure why. I liked about half of Cassadaga and haven't really liked anything since. Even the album art has sucked since then now that I think about it. I'll probably take them to amoeba at some point to swap for some store credit. Multiverse 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawhizz Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 FYI, if you like Bright Eyes, check out the Lifted cover comp Take This to Heart put out last Friday. Really good. https://takethistoheartrecords.bandcamp.com/album/a-monument-to-commemorate-our-time-a-tribute-to-lifted-by-bright-eyes mitchard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCDELTAT Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 (edited) I suppose I knew this was coming... I enjoyed the other 3 at like a 7/10 level. I spun them a few times, but I have such a heavy incoming rotation I haven't jumped back to them. Do I pick up these 3 just to keep the collection alive?

I’m considering it after I’ve thought on it a bit. The version of Gold Mine Gutted released today is probably the best song from the Companion EPs so far imo. Regardless of the album being my favorite of these three, the Digital Ash one is the one I have been interested in hearing the most. I could really do without all of these guest musicians being added though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Multiverse Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Hearing Gold Mine I think puts into perspective what sound so lifeless about these to me--if these were live session recordings I think I might enjoy them more but there's this disingenuous feeling to these recordings, something about trying to force life back into songs that were great as-is iunno it might just be me but all of the companion stuff has fallen flat for me & I definitely don't feel the need to own these after purchasing and never spinning the first three (which if anyone wants for a deal lmk lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope this is the case Edited May 10, 2023 by prowl20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
