[Ellestin]

neither do I tbh

lurch you're an embittered bastard my friend

how's the progeny doin'?

 

[lurch70]

LOL ... the progeny is awesome!!! Best thing ever.

as far as Mr. Wheeler, just a vibe i got ... its hip to hate on WitTR no?

New WitTR

I just listened to this (saw the leak for it yesterday when I was checking out new Opeth). and yeah, not sure I'm loving it.

 

[ChaosLee]

Okay, second listening is making me much happier with it.

 

[lurch70]

listening to this now ... first track in ... good production ... nice bass rumble, etc.
am I crazy .... this reminds me a bit of current NB somewhat.

 

[ChaosLee]

Yeah, after a second and third listen, I'm actually quite happy with the new WitTR.

 

[lurch70]

it has a certain new "bombastic" vibe. like they are channeling Dimmu or somethin'

 

[ChaosLee]

Minus the gay vibe, perhaps. But I agree on bombast.

 

[dorian gray]

I need a good solid gay vibe in my music

 

[ChaosLee]

Unless the band is Judas Priest, I try to minimize the gay.

 

[lurch70]

one thing I am tired of is these freaking 1-2 minute transitional wind chime channeling the lord of the rings tracks in BM. why the fuck do most bands do it?
this new one also ... 7 tracks and 2 are of that nature (actually 3, a longer chick sung ditty as well)

it's just as annoying and played out as those lame ass skits between tracks on hip-hop records

 

[ChaosLee]

yeah, i have to agree that interlude stuff is quite obnoxious. yay, you're artsy. Where's the fucking metal.

 

[lurch70]

it's supposed to put me in some sort of mood I guess ...
my motto is, if you don't or can't play it live ... don't put it on the fucking record.

 

[ChaosLee]

You purist, you

 

[dorian gray]

haha excellent motto

 

[lurch70]

anyway this Celestial Seasonings is a pretty damn good disc ... but it makes me want tea.

 

[ChaosLee]

 

[lurch70]

actually on final listen this disc is rather inconsistent ... doesn't flow well.

Thuja Magus Imperium and Astral Blood are my faves off of it on first spin.

i did like the early WitTR better though ... that repetitious hypnotic crap suits them better.

 

[KILL TULLY]

I had to stop reading here

Hahahahahaha.
