New anathema album, first impressions

[Cerulean]

Hey you gotta look at Sol's avatar and read what he posted, it feels like Al is saying it

 

[sol83]

yeah. don't you just adore that i'm-a-looser look? ahh...

 

[Dhatura]

yeah. don't you just adore that i'm-a-looser look? ahh...

Okay, okay, I'll try to learn to adore it. One for all, all for me.

 

[Dhatura]

Oh, I feel much better now that I've had dinner. :Spin:

 

[sol83]

dinner after midnight. proper greek way.

Nocturnal pleasures... mind you, in Greece I always went to bed before 11

 

[Cerulean]

I always stay up too late, it's no good I usually go to bed at 1 or 2 or sometimes even later but I gotta get out of bed at 7

what? i think sleeping early in greece is a fellony.

seriously now, if you go to some vacation place during the summer, restaurants are empty till 10. everybody goes out for dinner after that time. some even after midnight. i mean, dinner at 7? get real.

LOL!


The latest Kat & Gathering records literally piss all over "Lights Out". This is fact, not simply an opinion.


Read it. Believe it. Accept it.
And move on....

I wish it was a fact, then at least I'd have some decent modern albums to listen to.

Sometimes I wish i were a forum mod. I'd rule with an iron fist.

I'm worried about Anathema incorporating some "heavier" elements on the new album... I just hope it doesn't turn out like Katatonia's latest abomination.



"Souveniers" is brilliant.

'Pulled Under at 2000 meters a second is like a song cradle of filth would write. Just throwing more wood to the the fire. Hehe
But really forget about me. Im a sad bastard
Buy the album and i hope you like it. I like some songs and is in fact as Danny said "an ok album". Still, i always hope for more coming from the lads.

 

[SoundMaster]

And who are you to say that? You speak about your opinion like it should be everyone's. So tiring...

Oh brother.....

It was a J-O-K-E!

 

[SoundMaster]

I just hope it doesn't turn out like Katatonia's latest abomination.

The sky is falling, for sure!

We usually have the same tastes.....I'm surprised you don't like VE.

 

[ProgMetalFan]

sorry, SoundMaster! I just think it's missing the fragile weakness that I love in Katatonia's music... there's nothing that approaches a "TEARgas" or "Darkness Coming' on VE... I think the increased heaviness sacrifices many of the things that makes recent Katatonia great

 

[Thortyir]

Sometimes you scare me too with those long MSN names of yours such as "T - h - o - r - t - y - i - r, Moon Around The Earth Summerbreeze Festival 2003 KICKS ASS I'll be there, lovely"

Hahaha, I try to be as explicit as it needs...

To all offended by my sentence about The Gathering: OF COURSE, I WAS BEING SARCASTIC, AS IN THE MAJOR PART OF MY POST I WAS TALKING AGAINST JUDGING AN ALBUM ON SUCH A NONEXISTING BASE AS HAVING LISTENED TO ONE TRACK OF IT AND ONLY ONCE OR NOT EVEN THAT.

Is it clear enough now?

Kisses to you all (flash) * s a r c a s m * (flash) * s a r c a s m * (flash) * s a r c a s m *

I'm quite sure it won't, and I'm happy to see Anathema back to some heaviness in a way.
Anathema is the only "metal" (if we can still say "metal") band that my friends listen to. It will be a good opportunity for them to fall into the dark side.

 

[Dhatura]

No problem with you dear Maqus

Oooooh and aaaaaaargh, I am found out

But as you all know

You really shouldn't have posted this one, I'm sorry for the guy

i have my very first impressions.. so it might change soon..

this album is rather triphop, mood music or even pop, progrock, whatever but not metal. I dont say its wrong.. u know, just what the hell are we doin at ultimatMETAL.com?? Anathema is almost MTV-ready now.

But I do like it! As long as I like any blue sad dark stuff, its good. especially track 6. its just what we can expect from them, not less, not more, a new one. I recommend it to ppl who like the previous album. I think its kindof sequel. And not lukewarm at all

though some songs are simply boring for me.. just as some were on previous albums.. im very picky

Track six is ace!! (and its even metal!)

 

[mehdi.i.e.e.e]

what does lukewarm mean?
