Kind of...Thanks Rushbo and Adelle for the comments! Kind of bittersweet for me to hear you like it. I left the band a few months after the recording as I realised the band was a lost cause. If I had my time again I would have relocated to London....regrets, I've had a few!<br /><br />Rushbo - sorry, no tax breaks. But you might find your name written on a lavatory wall in a Stourbridge pub, somewhere between "for a good time call Shirley" and "land rights for gay whales".....Ralph Dodgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13673282886316887588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6600116562689603843.post-26261049050730462632011-06-06T18:15:40.635-07:002011-06-06T18:15:40.635-07:00I skip around in my reading & listening... so ...I skip around in my reading & listening... so it happened like this for me:<br /><br />Read the post up until song descriptions. Listen to track 4 first, Circle She Is, as I read Rushbos comment. Rushbo says vocals are off, and I'm thinking no they're not. Then I read your description of the track, and you say you hate it- just as I'm about to start commenting on how I really liked it. <br /><br />So then I listened to the rest (& read about em), and now I do agree with Rushbo, and I think the reason people preferred that song is possibly the fact that it has the best vocals. The instruments are sound through out all 4, but the vocals aren't. Not tryin to bust on your friend, it's just that they're inconsistent.<br /><br />But.... overall opinion? Very impressed.

Sounds pretty go...Well you did it, didn't you?<br /><br />Sounds pretty good Ralph. Your singer wasn't pitch perfect, but who was in the 90's? I loved that fuzzed up chorusy swirly sound you had going on. Yeah, let's blame Johnny Marr...I spent days trying to learn the intro to 'This Charming Man'...it only ever sounded like an ugly tangle of arpeggiated nonsense. As for the NEDs comparison - I blame your singer. As their home town (Stourbridge) is about 5 miles from where I sit typing this, I have to admit a mild admiration for some of their stuff, especially their last album 'Brainbloodvolume' which had some great moments.<br /><br />I quite like being an inspiration...does this mean I get a tax rebate?<br /><br />But you did it, didn't you? Ya put yer kree-hay-tee-vee-tee on the line and you came up smiling. I've got to say Ralph, that 'Anthems for the Estranged'by Lucid Ocean is one hell of an appellation! College students would come FLYING out to see you with a mane like that (probabbly with a slim volume of Camus or Gide in their back pocket). More power to yer elbow. <br /><br />Now...bring on the diaries!Rushbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17368726463563067313noreply@blogger.com
