[Reign in Acai]

I love the Woods of Ypes full-length. Who has a copy they are willing to part with? I'll pay you handsomely.

 

[cthulufhtagn]

its ok...i think the vocals are the part that's lacking for me really, not grimm enough

seriously though. and the lyrics too, not really my cup of tea. i'll listen to the smiths if i want breakup music.

i'd probably part with it if i had it here with me, but i'm not gonna have my parents dig through the boxes in my closet to send it sry

 

[Demilich]

weird. that album has awesome lyrics. and half of the songs kick serious ass!

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

the mantle vs. vredins tid was the toughest one on their for me. The former has been one of my favorite albums for a few years but hasnt gotten much play recently, while the latter has been on my playlist constantly since I saw manegarm at HC2. It was tough.

I had an extra, sealed copy but I traded it back to David Gold for the Against the Seasons reissue!

And "Pursuit of the Sun..." went OOP about 3 days later

My copy was signed by David & the keyboardist, Jessica Rose on the night of the release party (at which I got right fucking wasted and had a great time)

By the way that's why this is unfair. Colour Haze have been discussed so much here, while SB not at all, except a thread made J about them, with few replies.
