Is Pocket Symphony any good?

I like it. Its a bit inconsistent but the use of different instruments keeps it interesting. One of the more underappreciated album of the year, I think.

It's pretty good, I'd give it about a 3.5 or so. The production is just lovely.

[QUOTE=Radiobass81;15744445]Is Pocket Symphony any good?[/QUOTE]

I haven't listened to it all the way through yet but what I've heard so far is good. Jarvis Cocker worked on some of the songs :boner:

The Jarvis Cocker song is pretty out of place, but its good.

Pocket Symphony isn't the place to start for Air albums, but its still a pretty album.

sunn - flight of the behemoth
converge - jane doe

Converge albums are so damn expensive here, most albums here are about £10 yet all the Converge albums I see in store are like, £18.

i saw it used for $6.99 and snatched it up real quick and ****

Holy crap, it sucks being in the UK because we get tax on CD's.

Seriously, paying nearly £20 for an album is a complete rip-off when nearly a quarter of it goes to the government.

well new cds are taxed but i dont know if used ones are

i got those two cds for like $15. lol most of the sunn cds there were used and looked like they were barely played

buying used ftw

I could imagine normal people randomly buying Sunn O))) albums and returning it the next day haha.

Yeah, used CD's rule. I have a few used stores in my area but you wouldn't go there to look for something exactly, you would go there and just find some bargains if you get me. The best bargain I've found was a Bark Psychosis and an Envy CD for £8 altogether.

ive gotten Trout Mask Replica and Double Nickels on the Dime both for $7 at this one place where i'm going to today

Both of those albums are really expensive here. You would have to pay £30 to get both of those albums (£15 each if you are THAT bad at maths).

that would be like $30 each here

That much? Overpriced CDs suck, there isn't much need for them to be that expensive.

deluxe edition cds are like that price

I don't buy deluxe edition CDs, I'm happy paying a lot less for the normal edition.

if i had money i would probably buy the ones with interesting material
like the DDN one

but a lot of them have pretty lame stuff
