04.30.20 | Hype. Will probs start in a couple of hours or so! |
Pikazilla
04.30.20 | Cool idea! Might give it a shot, although I'm swamped with work today. |
JohnnyoftheWell
04.30.20 | Lol please do, can easily see this thread being a sad series of "Album X starting now"s otherwise |
dedex
04.30.20 | imma jam the debut this afternoon |
JohnnyoftheWell
04.30.20 | shit yis! |
dedex
04.30.20 | u know what i'll first jam it now and give it another listen after lunch |
JohnnyoftheWell
04.30.20 | aight starting now, s/t here we come (for the third time today) |
JohnnyoftheWell
04.30.20 | Fake Train starting now |
dedex
04.30.20 | Which songs off the s/t are your fave Johnny?
Mine would be Fingertips and Rising Blood |
JohnnyoftheWell
04.30.20 | Fingertips and Understand & Forget, but the best bit is the middle minute of Stuck in the Middle of Nowhere Again imo |
dedex
04.30.20 | I'm currently on Stuck in the Middle of Nowhere Again, this bit is indeed awesome |
dedex
04.30.20 | kinda excited to do an all-song ranking of them tbh |
JohnnyoftheWell
04.30.20 | Oooh yes, do it!!! am stoked to compare aha. Taking notes as I go to save as much time as poss later |
dedex
04.30.20 | How many songs do they have btw? We might need two separate lists
Or we just do a top 100? |
JohnnyoftheWell
04.30.20 | 82 on mine, including a few bonus tracks on Future (basically extensions of the Pardon My French loop) and a pointless reprise track at the end of Challenge (from the Side Effects of Being Tired bassline)!
If you do A Single History, that's an extra 10-15 or so - and I'm gonna include a couple of rare tracks from Further Listening since I have good mems of that comp |
Demon of the Fall
04.30.20 | I could’ve done this instead of jamming Prince for nearly 3 hours solid. Set me back a little, a ‘cultural boon’ though perhaps because who cares about these guys outside of niche music circles?... so all’s good I guess. Yeah this is very ‘Cool story bro’ but whatever.
I’m ahead of where complete newcomers will be having heard New Plastic Ideas and Leaves, so maybe I’ll be okay here after all. Good idea anyway Johnny. |
JohnnyoftheWell
04.30.20 | On Hexenzsene as of just now and lol Demon idk if jamming Prince is allowed as a source of regret |
JohnnyoftheWell
04.30.20 | Aight, hearing the first 2 seconds of New Energy was enough to tell me that my neighbour would hate me forever if I listen to The Future of What as I'd prefer to; will finish this tomorrow, got the early albums wrapped and written up |
SmashIsTheWay94
04.30.20 | not sure if I'll "join in" per se as I've already been jamming tons of Unwound lately, but this is a great idea. I might check A Single History today though. there shouldn't be that many songs I haven't heard from this band |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.01.20 | aight, Future of What: here we go. |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.02.20 | just got Challenge down - man, that album has aged badly for me. Gonna tick Leaves off tomorrow and get uploading! |
dedex
05.02.20 | oooof i only jammed the s/t
gotta be finished with it by the end of next week |
SmashIsTheWay94
05.02.20 | "just got Challenge down - man, that album has aged badly for me"
one of my favorites tbh |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.03.20 | I used to dig Challenge q a bit (and still think it's a solid album), but I feel Repetition did experimental/noisey Unwound much better
Going onto Leaves now: endgame! |
neekafat
05.03.20 | Yah I'll do it |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.03.20 | all of it? |
Demon of the Fall
05.03.20 | I was gonna do this, got distracted. Whoops. |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.03.20 | how dare you -_- put Fake Train on asap and sit back as the first 5 tracks blow your brains out - no excuses!! |
neekafat
05.03.20 | Wait when did this start |
JohnnyoftheWell
