[Dick Sirloin]

Where the fuck can I listen to a full song?

"The August Engine Part 2" -- if all their songs were like that, this would be the greatest band of all time

 

[lurch70]

this sounds fucking amazing ... definetelly going to see them live again

 

[lurch70]

STOP THE PRESS.....

Cruz del Sur are streaming samples (first 90 seconds of each track) HERE.

Balls getting blue....

hey Ali ... you know you are quoted on that page right?

 

[Dick Sirloin]

Either I'm baked or this is pretty good. More to come.

 

[lizard]

if "The Locust Years" was an accurate title, they would have waited seven years before releasing it.

just sayin

 

[Dick Sirloin]

Hahaha, I'm sad to say I actually laughed at that

 

[lizard]

*nods*

 

[Dick Sirloin]

Hey those Python Cds you sent me a long time ago are damn hilarious

 

[lizard]

"there was no severed head in a bag, no dismembered torso of a man in his late 50s..."

 

[Dick Sirloin]

I need to but the big Flying Circus boxset

 

[lizard]

I especially need the Bicycle Repairman sketch

and Teddy Salad/Mr. Neutron

 

[MFJ]

shiiiit, I need to get the August Engine...

 

[JayKeeley]

Where the fuck can I listen to a full song?

The first track, (title track), is full in the stream.

"The August Engine Part 2" -- if all their songs were like that, this would be the greatest band of all time

"Doomed Parade" is the best song on the album. No wait, maybe it's "Insect". Hang on, it could be "AE part 2"...whatever, they ARE the greatest band of the last decade at least. I 'aint huffing over nothing here.

where you people been?!!

hey Ali ... you know you are quoted on that page right?

Cool.

If you remember the Scalzi interview, Cobbet said he wasn't into touring all that much (outside of CA) so I'm obviously going to fly over to NAD and see the tour.

(Actually, they might still play the west coast beyond CA because he recently toured with JARBOE up to Seattle).

ha ha ha. anecdote:

Whenever I'm listening to the album, I get to AE part 2, and proclaim it the greatest song ever,

Then Insect gets going and I say "oh right, THIS song is the greatest!",

and then Doomed Parade, same thing. So then I go back to AE part 2 to refresh my memory, and it all happens all over again.

Don't quite see it. I dunno, I listened to the new track and samples and this could be their best material yet. I think it may be Scalzi's vocals that I haven't learned to quite enjoy yet. For 2 years I've been trying to figure out why these guys aren't making me urinate with glee. Cause they should be. In theory.

 

[Demilich]

Maybe you have a greater appreciation for some of the bands that have influenced HoM than most of us around here, making you a more discerning listener in this case?

 

[Demonspell]

Yeah I noticed that, but these could be 10 minute songs for all we know. I'll wait too.

Agreed, and those harmonies are pretty cool and unique for this type of music, but if Scalzi does indeed take a reduced role, it may prevent this album from surpassing The August Engine...
