this is not Minecraft. its a minute of white noise. that's it.
not was i was expecting. but the noise was cool, i guess?..
wow
this is NOT my thing.
this guys voice is really grating and the beat is EXTREMELY basic
realised i hadn't rated this
this is incredible and one of the coolest concept albums of all time. pure energy the whole way through, so cool.
pretty cool performance, the back up singers are cool. i only know of this because i have the vinyl lol (very cool looking actually, very bright green)
this album is incredible and the most inspiring things I've ever heard.
This is one of the best things I've ever heard, and it's made by two friends who met on discord, with help from fellow people in Friends House Records. how in all HELL.
i remember hearing two songs, "stop calling" and "lost in translation" and seeing the album cover a lot back when this came out. now I'm kicking myself that i didn't go into this fully.
If you like lo-fi ... read more
the most important thing to happen on September 11th 2001
..probably
similar to a few lemon demon albums, a lot of actually really fun songs but weighed down by some only alright ones. still really impressive for an 18 year old in his house in 2005.
So interesting to see the visual recording of this show after just hearing the album version after so long.
It really amplifies the high moments of the show, quiet moments plunge the venue into darkness and climaxes light up in overwhelming brightness.
Colour is done well, every section of every song fits with the lighting shade near perfectly.
The alternative mix (maybe the original recording of the show?) was interesting to hear. Some things were louder and some things were quieter. It was ... read more
god damn
i have no joke or anything to say for this one. what the hell
now.. of course you all can like this, but personally this is not for me AT ALL.
It's trying way too hard to switch up stuff and be complex. its adding a really hyperactive feel to an album that i feel would work better as a slower kind of thing. i understand Joe Hawley was known even before this for energetic writing from the songs he wrote for Tally Hall, but it really just doesn't fit here.
This is even coming from someone who has loved Tally Hall for years, this feels like some ... read more
[this is for the 2008 re-recording just to clarify, that's the version on streaming and physical releases]
A few years ago, i went through a pretty big phase of this band (and another about citrus fruit.. take a wild goddamn guess.)
There are some actually really fun songs on this but also some absolute snooze-fests (mainly the rob cantor written songs, just not my thing)
Again, some genuinely really cool songs, Taken For A Ride, The Bidding, Spring And A Storm, Ruler Of Everything. a ... read more
i listened to in rainbows a long time ago, and i thought it was aright but not nearly as good as i thought it would be, knowing this bands praise.
this is MILES better goddamn. really really loved this. not a single bad song. i understand this band now finally lol
annoys me to no end that on RYM this is literally ranked theTENTH BEST EVER MADE and yet it's not even top 100 here.
Probably the most fun I've ever had listening to an album
You have absolutely NO idea where this thing is gonna go. each song as completely different but in the end it kind of works.
This thing has transitions between tracks so there is pretty much no breaks, sometimes songs will be broken up by like a second or less of sound very suddenly (track 2 into 3 for example)
Some really weird ideas on this as well, Text to speech counting to six, A music machine made in 2001. such a weird ... read more
second sleep is UNBELIEVABLY good god damn. star eyes is also near perfect. two insane songs.
if you like higher energy go for second sleep, if you like slower songs go star eyes.
this song makes me so sad because judging from this and the live versions of A Piece Of Future the next album could have been insane and long dreamy stuff. so sad that never happened as i would have not survived that lmfao
While i do think the performance on 98.12.28 is a large amount better, this is still genuinely really good, the part where the vocals stop and it just goes into emotional wailing between Shinji and the other members back and forth to the melody was such a cool climax i ... read more
