Spawn's dad Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 there are a lot of things that suck. this is not one of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skip Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 After reading through several pages of less filling and tastes great comments... I can across this...it's like the anti mainstream indie record. I dig that it has a 70's vibe....which speaks to me. And I bet some of you are right about Pitchfork comments. Most indie folks will likely scoff this type of a record and I bet... JT is smiling about that. Being There had a similar initial reaction. They've always been about turning the corner and re-inventing themselves. Well they've done it again. Bands like Wilco are visionaires - leaders not followers. I'm not worried. The others will catch up eventually. I can sortof understand why most...don't appreciate soul music or music with this type of groove. Largely, it's been a black art form and I guessing most of us here in this forum aren't black. Admittedly, I'm not all that familar with soul music. But unlike a lot of rock and punk, there's real emotion and feeling in there. Another point, with the current line up the musicanship has never been better. They sound like a band rather than a Pro Tools experiment and I like that. That all said, I like the record but I'm still digesting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Atticus Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 There's no such thing. You're either for this album or you're against it. that's how you let the terrorists win! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spawn's dad Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 that's how you let big parm win! fixed it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
socbret Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 But unlike a lot of rock and punk, there's real emotion and feeling in there.I read it without "a lot of" at first and was ready to jump all over you, but I agree with most of your post. Hell, I bet Pfork is kicking themselves about that AGIB review, but then again who knows... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kalle Posted March 4, 2007 Author Share Posted March 4, 2007 I know I made the post about Pitchfork going to hate it, which they probably will. But I can see alot of other reviews not liking this album too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dude Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I can sortof understand why most...don't appreciate soul music or music with this type of groove. Largely, it's been a black art form and I guessing most of us here in this forum aren't black. Admittedly, I'm not all that familar with soul music. But unlike a lot of rock and punk, there's real emotion and feeling in there. I'd like to point out that you can be a big fan of soul music and not necessarily think this album is a particularly great example of it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

skip Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 But I can see alot of other reviews not liking this album too. I'm guessing that they probably won't know how to react to it. How many bands in 2007 (in the age of MP3s)still make album oriented records? I'd like to point out that you can be a big fan of soul music and not necessarily think this album is a particularly great example of it. Point taken. Stylistically...for any band to change it's stripes, it takes guts. Sometimes the risk pays off and sometimes it doesn't. In this case, I think they did a good job. They've got the chops and I think the pulled it off. Also, I think... they like the challenge. It keeps them interested. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
H to the ickle Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Pitchfork pans everything that isn't YHF or OK Computer. I predict a 6.2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
danelectro Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 What is Pitchfork? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
socbret Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Pitchfork pans everything that isn't YHF or OK Computer. I predict a 6.2Which confuses my as to why the stuck behind Pavement through all the changes. Then again, most of their reviews for them are in hindsight or late in the game.

Spawn's dad Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 so, wait. fuck pitchfork for a review they haven't written yet? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
socbret Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 so, wait. fuck pitchfork for a review they haven't written yet?Maybe Ryan Schreiber will look on here and give it a 10.1 or a o.o out of spite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gobias Industries Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 This is MUCH more AGIB and YHF than most people think. It's just 99% less noise and 99% more structurally-based (e.g. fooling with rhythms, melodies, etc.) rather than basing it more on the texture (e.g. noise, which is the whole YHF-AGIB era). I hear A LOT of YHF in this record - just no noise to accent it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Reagent Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Do people really give a shit about Pitchfork or think of them as a reputable voice in the music world? I always have thought of them as a complete joke. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alii Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Pitchfork often love originality over music. SBS is not very original. It is however quite a brave move IMO, so perhaps they'll get a few points for that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
YouAReMYface Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 honestly who the fuck cares about reviews? i doubt jeff cares, i kno i dont care, so why make a big deal out of it cuz not everyones gonna like it, so as long as you like it then its all good Quote Link to post Share on other sites
