pg.99

pg.99 is a much better band. This album is boring just like this band. It doesn't deserve more than a 2.5
|
| |
dammit I want to trust you but that 3.5 isn't looking to great.
this review is great as usual Eli, congrats on the 150.

"i have a post rock pie slice too for some reason, its one of my smallest sections, and when u scroll over it it usually brings up bands that i wouldn't even consider post rock so something gay is obviously going on"
yea my pie chart does the same thing

New album is out and is really good. Kind of like Russian Circles' "slow ascent" songs like Afrika. Definitely check it out. Might be better than Russian Circles' new one for the most part.

Thanks for the heads up , will definetly check it. I like this band.
|
| |
clarification: i meant to say it has leaked, not that its out. anyways, i definitely think this band deserves more attention than they get. theyre at least on a level playing field with Caspian and Russian Circles.

I haven't listened to their stuff in a couple years - but I do remember liking it. I will wait for the new release, in official FLAC ;)
|

new album is a monster. aoty material. puts russian circles to shame. better than caspians last album too. their progressions are constantly interesting.
|
| |
agreed minty! I was hoping for an improvement on Key, which is OK in its own right, but 'Versus' just blows my bollocks off in ways I never imagined. It's incredible :O

When I listened to the new one I also compared it a lot to the latest RC. They're about equally good for me at this point. Didn't think they would put out an album that good tbh.
|

I think the new album is very samey. But other than that, every single moment is PERFECTLY crafted. It just sounds so, so stunning. Not that many individual memorable moments due to it being one big, fairly samey monster. But it's constantly enjoyable throughout. I was pretty blown away by how it never stopped sounding incredible.
|

Yeah it does follow the same narrative throughout, but it never feels boring at all. Tracks like 'Off The Beaten Path' and 'Versus' are pretty much flawless in their execution and the rest are not far off.
I agree re: the RC comparisons, Sniff. For me pg.lost edges it for being more emotive and interesting (to me at least).

I've listened to two tracks off the new one. I love them. Gonna listen to the rest of the album this week.

To me the weakest track is t/t. It just never takes off after the church organ intro. That'd be on Versus. Cant wait til we have a real thread for discussing Versus.
