i'maveryneatMonster.' Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 ^ That's their worst album to date. :nod: haha, that's so true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admnistramation Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Oh, thanks for reminding me, Jasmin. All those people who have been saying Feist's new album is great are absolutely right. LISTEN TO IT. It's really good. :nod: Favorite song? Mine's a tie between Anti-Pioneer and Caught A Long Wind. How Come You Never Go There holds a very high slot too.

Italian Plastic Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 He hasn't actually released an album or anything yet but this guy Koreless is amazing. He's from Scotland and works as a naval engineer or something crazy.

It's really good. Yes! It sounds different from her previous stuff but true, so great. :freak: And How Come You Never Go There is my current favourite.

Violet Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 haha, that's so true Yep. It's arguably my biggest disappointment this year. :nod: Favorite song?

Give me a couple more listens, and I'll get right back to you on that. :tongue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

para-para-parrotdies Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 St. Vincent - Strange Mercy. I think it was actually mentioned several times already (I know I have). One of the contenders for AOTY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admnistramation Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 The more I seem to listen to Strange Mercy, the more I seem to recognize the same three songs. It's a nice sound she's established on there but Cruel, Surgeon, and Neutered Fruit are the only memorable songs on it. :shrug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, so I listened to the album (minus the last track) while cleaning the kitchen. Feist has a beautiful voice. :heart: I'll say that "The Bad in Each Other" is a GREAT album opener, and I think "Cicadas & Gulls" is quite pretty. :nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admnistramation Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Cicadas And Gulls kind of bored me when I listened to that itunes preview but after hearing the entire thing, her voice just makes it. It's so soft and cushy, I like it. :happy: I'm starting to think that The Bad In Each Other will be the next single, I never would have seen that coming with A Commotion being such an outstander. I just hope this album doesn't get torn apart by critics, it's such a fine album and no one seems to care about it. I've seen virtually no discussion anywhere. :shrug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

admnistramation Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 And I see that RS gave it four stars. :) I swear it should have gotten BNM from pitchfork, but with Biophilia coming out in a week they can't give it to Metals. But what really bothers me about that pitchfork review is their nit-picking for a hit single and that is wrong wrong wrong, especially with this album.

But what really bothers me about that pitchfork review is their nit-picking for a hit single and that is wrong wrong wrong, especially with this album. I don't know about BNM but it definitely should have scored in the low 8s, something like an 8.2 or 8.3. I've listened to the album since it leaked a couple of weeks ago and although I appreciate what Feist was trying to do, it's not a tremendous album. And speaking of Biophilia... While I personally think it ranks pretty highly among Bjork's tremendous discography, I think it will end up getting a lot of mixed reviews.
