That opening to "Waste" sounds so much like The Cranberries' "Zombie" it throws me off every time

I'm going to have to edit the shit out of all these interludes tagged to the end of a lot of these songs. Wish most of them were their own songs.

i love the unresolved punk song at the end of “no control”

The guitar solo in "137" is the most glorious musical moment of 2017.

can you YSI if you do this? after listening to it for the 20th time theyre really starting to get on my nerves
― flopson, Friday, 6 October 2017 19:57 (six years ago) link
You can easily do this yourself with a lossless MP3 editor. The best one I know is MP3DirectCut (Windows only).

― flopson, Saturday, 7 October 2017 20:53 (six years ago) link

i don't usually get that stoked about live concerts even for bands i love but this is one of the albums where i need to see them touring this material
― flopson, Saturday, 7 October 2017 21:17 (six years ago) link
largely because i need a socially acceptable outlet to singalong to some of these choruses in public
is this band/album too normie for the rest of the 1975 cru?
― k3vin k., Friday, 13 October 2017 23:40 (six years ago) link
tim f is a fan of the devil and god iirc
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Saturday, 14 October 2017 03:42 (six years ago) link
i have a new favorite every night. this album gives and gives. listening to new music from this band (my favorite in high school/early college 10 years ago) when it's THIS GOOD fills me with a unique sort of nostalgia. or a sense of completeness/closure, idk

kev you should check outthread of best rock album of year 2017, 'a black mile to the surface' by manchester orchestra
― Spottie, Sunday, 15 October 2017 04:27 (six years ago) link
ha yeah i remember digging manchester orchestra a little back in the day, they toured with brand new at least once iirc. ill give it a spin
― k3vin k., Sunday, 15 October 2017 04:39 (six years ago) link
yeah I saw them together around 2009

first time I listened to the intro to SF I was afraid Jesse had gone full Tom Delonge
― botex (rip van wanko), Sunday, 15 October 2017 20:53 (six years ago) link
and then the first few strums of Can't Get Out had me thinking he'd gone full Jeff Mangum

jesse is an obsessive NMH fan, if you heard something it's quite possibly intentional

cool show last night at the worst venue ever. jesse said we're gonna see them a couple more times in the next 14 months in chicago, whatever that means

i just realized that the reason "i am a nightmare" is so awesome is because it's basically a gaslight anthem song
― k3vin k., Thursday, 19 October 2017 01:19 (six years ago) link
The show was amazing tonight but two notes 1) Jessie clearly hates deja ententu only played two songs from it and before sic transit he sarcastically said “the hit song” 2) I think he’s super depressed? I mean the new material is bleak af he’s playing lots of daisy not really engaging with the audience lots of dark imagery of soldiers in the background. But great show. But I hope he’s okay.
― Mordy, Thursday, 19 October 2017 03:09 (six years ago) link
honestly that was one of my first thoughts when I first heard the new album
― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Thursday, 19 October 2017 08:59 (six years ago) link
he’s playing lots of daisy
is this a euphemism for.. drugs?
― flopson, Friday, 20 October 2017 01:11 (six years ago) link
the album
― k3vin k., Friday, 20 October 2017 01:25 (six years ago) link
lol i don't know the first thing about their catalogue other than having sic transit gloria on a burned cdr in high school. checking out the 'devil and jesus' album u guys were talking about rn tho

flopson!

starting my emo phase late at 26
― flopson, Saturday, 21 October 2017 17:09 (six years ago) link
haha i just listened to YFW -> DE -> 2006 all in succession on a car ride last night and it brought be straight back to high school, screaming out all the lyrics in the car alone. if you like the new album i'd start with devil and god and then work backwards to see how much you can stomach. the old stuff is good for what it is (music for kids) but it's not something i can really imagine listening to all the time anymore
this new album has pretty much cemented brand new as one of my all-time favorite bands tho, or at least made me a little more willing to say that in public lol
― k3vin k., Saturday, 21 October 2017 17:33 (six years ago) link
2006 demos, i mean

― Simon H., Saturday, 21 October 2017 18:38 (six years ago) link
i've been thinking about what my brand new POX would be and i'm not ready for the full list yet, but after listening to the old stuff last night (and TDAG a couple of times last week) i think these are probably safe

Kev and Flopson you missed out on the emo poll.
― Spottie, Saturday, 21 October 2017 19:58 (six years ago) link
(the rest will be from TDAG and on)
xp spottie i really never dove deep enough into enough back in the day to have a truly informed vote, i was more into rap at that point in my life
― k3vin k., Saturday, 21 October 2017 20:03 (six years ago) link
Yah I was heavy into both in my early-mid 20s
― Spottie, Saturday, 21 October 2017 20:13 (six years ago) link
i listened to 3 emo albums in my life at present, including this one lol
― flopson, Saturday, 21 October 2017 20:20 (six years ago) link
i loved atdi in hs but ito rock shit i was p much excluse the 'garage' scene (broadly defined) in my early twenties, no regrets as i had the time of my life playing and going to shows twice a week. the only ppl i knew into emo then were more about the mathy/post-hardcore end of it; i think i wasn't fully aware of how fully good emo bangs as conventional rock music
― flopson, Saturday, 21 October 2017 20:37 (six years ago) link
i havent listened to much "emo" music in like a decade, so maybe the scene itself has changed, but if science fiction is seen as an emo album it probably has more to do with the band's historic association with that scene than it does with the actual music
― k3vin k., Saturday, 21 October 2017 20:37 (six years ago) link
i mean this is just a rock album
― k3vin k., Saturday, 21 October 2017 20:38 (six years ago) link
it's post-emo
― flopson, Saturday, 21 October 2017 20:46 (six years ago) link
chorus of same logic is straight emo imo
― flopson, Saturday, 21 October 2017 20:47 (six years ago) link
yeah there's some touches for sure
