mcm1610 Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 On listen 2 and I don't know how excited I really am anymore. It's not BAD, but it's not catching me just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partysmasher Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 i suggest you wait until one can actually purchase the record before jumping on your high horse as per usual. That has nothing to do with it in this case. People are complaining about the quality of something they didn't pay for. That's pretty absurd. That would be like me stealing a gallon of milk from the store and then bitching that it's not skim. That's not really what i was getting at, just how fast you use the word "steal" when anything like this happens, regardless of whether people can actually buy the CD or not. If you weren't a reviews editor and had the luxury of advanced copies, i bet you'd be downloading leaks before the records got released.

partysmasher Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 unless you want to listen to a copy of either record that stops every 20 seconds to say "New album on Epitaph Records, blah blah blah", you won't get a solid copy until the week before it comes out. The watermarks I have of those dont have the those drops on the album. The SYG one I had has that but not ETID or Converge. ditto, except converge which i don't have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kingbuzzo Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 I'm into it. To me it sounds like they've been listening to Modest Mouse, especially in the vocal melodies. "Vices" is great. The only thing I'm not big on is the bookending gospel songs because, as mentioned, it just reminds me of Indian Summer and then I remember I left those cds at home when I moved.

Guest drawthecurtains Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Is "Be Gone" supposed to sound like shit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duff Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Is "Be Gone" supposed to sound like shit? it's a filler track. they had 2 on their last album so i'm not surprised they have one on this album. i hate filler tracks, especially when the album clocks in around 40 minutes with said filler track.

motorbike Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 but filler tracks are artsy! didnt you know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Is "Be Gone" supposed to sound like shit? yeah, that's the only track i dislike on this album. i do like their previous 'fillers' though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duff Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 i was more pissed about the filler tracks with the devil and god. it took them over 3 years to release that album and they decide to throw in pretty much 2 filler tracks, they couldn't write 2 more songs, hell at least 1 more over the course of those 3 odd years.

thomas Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 I can't get into this at all. I've given it about 5-6 listens now and each time I like some songs less, which is odd, though I do like a few songs on the album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
