closer, good/bad?

[sol83]

yeah, i noticed there's another thread on this song but this one's kinda defferent so don't shoot.

after listening to the album 4 times, closer is deffo the winner. amazing song, i fuckin' adore it. the thing is that it's a more experimental song, for anathema at least, and i 'm curious to know how you feel about it and whether or not you'd like more stuff like this later on in the future. that is of course if the band wishes to write more songs like this.

 

[mehdi.i.e.e.e]

the album is not released yet!

 

[sol83]

yeah, i know. don't be a ballbreaker now, just answer the thing. i'll buy the album day one.

 

[Schism]

yes it one of my faves, there is something creepy but special about it. The vocoder deal should not be used too often but the music definitely rules this song.

 

[rafael]

I voted for:

nah, i like the traditional approach more

 

[Halfkakkende]

yeah, but don't overdo it.

 

[siderea]

how can you be halfkakkend? i don't get it, or is it some weird dutch expression for something?

 

[donkho]

its a good song (not the fave for me), shit... a REALLY GREAT SONG!! but I think it shouldnt be repeated (the vocoder thing) in the future....

(8)your dreamland its a very scary place to be traped inside(8)

 

[John Carvajal]

its a good song (not the fave for me), shit... a REALLY GREAT SONG!! but I think it shouldnt be repeated (the vocoder thing) in the future....

for me is a normal song, I have only "are you there" and "closer" and the rest in pieces, the 2 min. of "flying" I have, are my favorite until now. :Spin:

am not into distorted vocals, so I would had liked more without vocals, the video fragment showed sometime ago was really great , I am bit dissapointed with the final result , perhaps with the album in my hands should change :Smug:

 

[Don Corleone]

yeah good but dont overdo it. thats what i'd say.

 

[Dazza81]

Yeah, but dont overdo it.

 

[cedarbreed]

Yeah, but dont overdo it.

Your words complement mine !!

 

[sol83]

the thing is that each time i listen to the song i realize that if the vocals were normal i really doubt it would sound so special to my ears. the atmosphere would be completely different. anyways, i hope they'll play it live and all. you can headbang with a dying wish if you want.

 

[Strangelight]

and whats wrong with A Dying Wish like? PFF!

 

[Mariner]

the problem is that it is a classic... people are talking about it all the time, when it shouldnt get too much attention :Spin:

 

[sol83]

nothing is wrong with a dying wish. it's a fine song. i'm just sayin for those who just want heavy songs on gigs so they can go up and down all the time.

 

[Halfkakkende]

how can you be halfkakkend? i don't get it, or is it some weird dutch expression for something?

It IS possibble...You should try it

Nahh.. just kidding, it's just a weird name I came up with, nothing special.

 

[Strangelight]

the problem is that it is a classic... people are talking about it all the time, when it shouldnt get too much attention :Spin:

that makes no sense to me

 

[the_good_son141]

and whats wrong with A Dying Wish like? PFF!

everything!your hair messy,sweat all over the place , and a bit of deppressive influence in the end.

about it,i am not sure if it says 'i would die now' or 'i wouldnt die now',are you?

the thing about Closer is, that the music minus the vocals is not too dissimilar to Judgement material. i do like the vocals, they remind me of Air and Daft Punk. though I wouldn't like more songs like it, one is enough. Vinny has a great voice, he doesn't need effects.
