a-chan Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Actually in the last issue of Q, there is the big article, but they spoke also of TP on the 'tracks of the month', they suggest 'the good book' <3 and elsewhere, they're speaking again of the band in a short presentation (illustrated with the photo of the last article I put earlier). And on the review page presentation of new release they basically said that this month was a downer with bad record from Kylie and so on but that TP was the exception to the rule :smug: Q likes Gary, I've noticed that for a long time but all the reviews I've seen so far on TP are really great so no coincidence! AND there is a one page advertising for the album <33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiminy Cricket Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 *has album* I haven't had a proper listen yet (that's for later! :dance:), but what I can tell you is: this is the best thing Gary's been involved in since Final Straw. It's a far gentler listen than I was expecting, but that's a good thing; if what you liked most about the Reindeer Section was the intimacy of their songs, chances are you're going to enjoy this. Also. The lyrics. My word, the LYRICS! I've always seen Gary as a great lyricist, but he's outdone himself. This is 'Northwestern Skies': It's not like it was before There's a beauty in slamming doors And the lightning plays in your eyes as it plays through northwestern skies Girl, you were beautiful before, but in the cyclone I love you more There's a pause and the faintest smile, as the storm rages on for miles There's no answers in the tempest, just a (?) of questions So just let it take you over so that we can learn our lesson This has just got ridiculous, 'cause it's burned through the both of us In the crumbled-down cinema, we can hide where we always hide On the blank screen, project our lives: me as husband and you as wife As the storm outside dissipates, the screen wipes the ticker-tape (?) There's no answers in the tempest, just a (?) of questions So just let it take you over so that we can learn our lesson (x2) He had to throw a few tricky bits in there, but everything else is correct. Some of those lines are FANTASTIC. :cheesy: It's all sounding brilliant so far; will keep you updated about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiminy Cricket Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 THANKS BERNARD :dance: :hug: :bomb: Wait, I may have heard that second line wrong. It's '...as it cracks through northwestern skies'.

coldplay_is_louve. Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 So, to anyone who's interested, I just found the rest of the album. :dance: Point Me At Lost Islands: http://www.mediafire.com/?eotfjnnmzoz I Am A Landslide: http://www.mediafire.com/?ozzmdgwm1ny The Good Book: http://www.mediafire.com/?najznmzjyny Pieces: http://www.mediafire.com/?t03ninjrnmz I ADORE this album. :wacky: EDIT: Pieces is just magnificent. It's real music. It's true music. It comes to the heart, not like all this Lady Gaga or Miley Cyrus shit you see out there now. If any of you have little sisters or brothers that listen to any of that crap, I suggest showing them this album. This album is the definition of real music.

a-chan Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 THANK YOU :kiss: :hug: I'm repeating myself but seriously, 'the good book' :bomb: :bigcry: And I love Ian Archer saying 'oh sorry guys' at the end of his song :lol: This album is really a GEM! EDIT: Pieces is just magnificent. It's real music. It's true music. It comes to the heart, not like all this Lady Gaga or Miley Cyrus shit you see out there now.

Well, I think you have to listen to the worth to appreciate the better later ^^ When you're kid or teenager, I think it's normal to listen to this stuff. We all did! Plus it depends on what you expect of music. Some people just want something in the background to dance or listen slightly and other want sthg more :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
