i feel that, it's def the sharpest-sounding song here. also i was mainly making a bad counterpoint joke
― american bradass (BradNelson), Wednesday, 12 June 2019 14:26 (four years ago) link
nah the counterpoint is valid, the horns do sound great, and they aren't in the song enough imo
― Jeff the grown man (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 12 June 2019 14:31 (four years ago) link
the horns are the best part of this album

i find this to be true of part one as well (well, it's the horns + chris dave)

Feels cheap, but I voted for the first track.
Really this whole record is masterful. Can't wait for the next one. So far, he's two for two on this trilogy and it's improved with each record, so yeah!

Voted for “All The Ways” too, and feeling all the richer for it!
― breastcrawl, Monday, 1 July 2019 18:42 (four years ago) link
ended up voting for "the fall" bc it's such a cool song

Can confirm.

They're both my favorite, but this one's just a little bit more favorite.

i think this is probably his weakest overall actually
― ufo, Wednesday, 7 April 2021 20:57 (three years ago) link
struggling to figure out which maxwell album i think is the weakest
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Wednesday, 7 April 2021 21:41 (three years ago) link
all his albums are good-to-great but this one just falls off a little towards the end
― ufo, Wednesday, 7 April 2021 22:59 (three years ago) link
Agreed. To think every Maxwell album offers the same level of satisfaction is bonkers.
― So who you gonna call? The martini police (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 7 April 2021 23:02 (three years ago) link
Not a huge fan of his first few albums tbh.
― avatar of a kind of respectability homosexual culture (Eric H.), Wednesday, 7 April 2021 23:32 (three years ago) link
The second's the weakest, though "Cococure" is my essential Maxwell jam.

y'all need to get yourselves right with embrya
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Wednesday, 7 April 2021 23:41 (three years ago) link
i adore embrya
― ufo, Wednesday, 7 April 2021 23:44 (three years ago) link
embrya is such a warm bath. don't understand the mixed reception for that one, maybe you had to be there
― new display name (Left), Wednesday, 7 April 2021 23:52 (three years ago) link
oh I was there, loved his debut
― So who you gonna call? The martini police (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 7 April 2021 23:53 (three years ago) link
The next two albums were his best.
Embrya is his best and then probably the two BSNs and then probably the first and third.
― Tim F, Thursday, 8 April 2021 00:19 (three years ago) link
embrya is top ten all time for me. dead serious.
tim, we should be friends.
― Totally different head. Totally. (Austin), Thursday, 8 April 2021 00:20 (three years ago) link
We can agree we all love Maxwell, and we all love Brad's Pitchfork piece on Embrya.
― So who you gonna call? The martini police (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 8 April 2021 00:21 (three years ago) link
you're right, we can agree. because we're friends. isn't that nice.
