man so i have to admit i'm hearing things in "jerusalem" (vs. dopesmoker) that i never heard before

i guess that's common but this just feels really stark

yo am0n i know about the sabians but they haven't put anything out since 2003 afaict? are they still going?

― the late great, Saturday, 12 May 2012 05:35 (1 year ago) Permalink

hoos you got that in the right order? are you just now going back to jerusalem after hearing the dopesmoker reissue?

― the late great, Saturday, 12 May 2012 05:47 (1 year ago) Permalink

idk if i have it in the right order or not--i first heard and got to know 'dopesmoker' via a download of the original mix a few years back, and that's the one that i guess is still on my hard drive. i guess i'd never really listened to jeruselam, i thought i had. damn, now i'm gonna have to go get this reissued jeruselam too.

reissued dopesmoker you mean

― the late great, Saturday, 12 May 2012 06:08 (1 year ago) Permalink

i think they do this just to fuck with stoned people

yes indeed they're doing our london atp (with Slayer and Melvins and Yob and Wolves In the Throne Room and A Storm Of Light - FUCK) and primavera barcelona. Cannot wait.

― Jamie_ATP, Saturday, 12 May 2012 09:06 (1 year ago) Permalink

yeah they do from time-to-time. they played a few shows in 2010

played at a festival w/them in 2010 iirc & they were directly after us and opened right with a crushing Jerusalem/Dopesmoker riff section for about five min damn right I'm bragging, I got to geek out w/Pike & his son backstage afterwards

Saw them last week and it was uniformly excellent. No trouble hearing Cisneros either. Dopesmoker and Sonic Titan were the highlights.

Don't miss them if you get the chance.

i dl'ed jerusalem and i think this is now the one i prefer, the drums are a little more up front

― am0n, Monday, 14 May 2012 01:36 (1 year ago) Permalink

wait you like the dopesmoker reissue more than jerusalem or the other way around

― the late great, Monday, 14 May 2012 01:54 (1 year ago) Permalink

other way around

nah dude jerusalem is "the o.g." if you know what i mean ;-)

― the late great, Monday, 14 May 2012 03:23 (1 year ago) Permalink

i heard it first too back when it came out as my mates brother bought it and he loaned me it to tape. i also have a tape recording of an interview with the band on some cable radio metal show (solar radio it was called) with the whole thing playing in the background as the band explained what happened with London Records. And i still think Dopesmoker is better ;-)

I don't need to buy the same album over and over again. I'll stick with the CD I bought 10 years ago, thx

― Stormy Davis, Monday, 14 May 2012 04:43 (1 year ago) Permalink

I kinda want to buy the vinyl reissue because I do like the cover. But this is totally a CD album for me.

i also have a tape recording of an interview with the band on some cable radio metal show (solar radio it was called) with the whole thing playing in the background as the band explained what happened with London Records.

I think I know what's going to be on disc 2 of the inevitable deluxe edition...

o yeah, they replaced the unnecessary extra live track with a horrible sounding live 'holy mountain'. wonder what the thought process behind that was

― am0n, Monday, 14 May 2012 17:58 (1 year ago) Permalink

probably some bong rips were involved

this is one of the longest albums i've ever heard *tips hat*

the new one on spotify with some jawas and camels and shit, it's a 60+ minute track and a 11+ minute track?

i don't know the lore of this.

it's ok but i dunno doesn't really do a ton for me

― Bandersnatch Cumberbund (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 23:32 (1 year ago) Permalink

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 23:37 (1 year ago) Permalink

though i listen to the alt mix 'jerusalem' on spotify so everyone doesn't see me listening to DOPESMOKER

I do love the tour logic there. "Okay, from one corner of the country to the other in a single day..."

The Dopesmoker reissue is currently on UK eMusic for .84p
I don't know if this screws them over, or if it's even a mistake, but - yeah. Good deal...
