not too bad. if Cotopaxi is the single, i'll be happy.

don't stop dragging the laaaake

holy shit that was awesome

Lol can anybody say Bedlam In Goliath 2.0?

Okay, so I actually didn't mind it that much. And Since We've Been Wrong looks like it might actually be a good song.

Not bad. Not bad at all.

Not great, though.

I don't want more of the same, but nevertheless I enjoyed that. It makes a better single than Wax Simulcra.

pretty good

It sounds a lot better than any track on Bedlam, but I noticed there was an absent of sax/winds from the two tracks from this album i've heard so far.

Nice songs. Can't wait for this album. Got June 23rd plugged in my phone.

Also, oathfbass is right; I heard no sax! Let's hope they still use it frequently in this album.

I also forgot to mention that the drummer has toned down a bit which I think is a good thing.

I liked it it does sound like TBIG but its good. Also I'm glad they didn't decide to go with the doing only acoustic songs that lasted 3 minutes.

Bedlam ruled.

I agree with Deloused... I still haven't heard Frances...

I would rank amp over bedlam

good song, still dubious that they'll ever make anything as good as deloused or frances again

That was really good, thinking this might surpass bedlam from what ive heard.

both tracks were sweet

Loved it. was Bedlam pretty good? I only have De-loused and Frances the Mute...

They were ok, but still think there is better stuff off of bedlam

sounds like the mars volta. im getting bored of their sound so i was really hoping they would release the acoustic album, i need something different from them

Finally got de-loused. Found it for 2 bucks. I'll have to see if it's everything and more.

I really liked this song. I've pretty much enjoyed all of their albums, especially de-loused and bedlam. I think Frances would be my number 1 if it weren't for all of the gaps where no music is played. I don't care if it's "part of the story" and "symbolic of the main character's journey," I don't need to hear four minutes of silence in the middle of a song interjected with tweets and frog noises.

Hmm, not a bad track. Nothing remarkable or ground-breaking, but sounds like a solid single.

Pretty good. I can see they're no longer trying to impress everyone and just playing music.

i was really hoping they would release the acoustic album

That was awesome, love the drag the lake refrence being brought back. i cant wait for this album to leak.

Sounds like a radio edit to me, around the 1:30 mark.
I suspect the album version will be longer.

I'm pretty sure you're right about that. Awesome song nevertheless.

Yeah it probably is since it is a single out in the UK.

Great song. More or less what everyone expected, but great song.This Message Edited On 04.25.09

liked a lot...

What kind of alternative rock have you been listening to? Good bands change over time and it's a good thing they haven't tried to replicate De-Loused on each album.

I sort of like 'The Pridge'...

Theodore is my favorite of the two, but the guy above has no iea what he's talking about. This song was very well written.

doubleThis Message Edited On 04.25.09

the pridge is like a handjob...excitin and fresh but a lot of times pales in comparison to...theodore, choking le chicken...who always did exactly what you wanted him to and, in the end, you were much more satisfied
but the pridge is young so he has time to get better...

lol what the hell are you talking about?

I don't need to hear four minutes of silence in the middle of a song interjected with tweets and frog noises.

My GF gave me a Pridgejob once. It wasn't all that.

fuckin great song cant wait 4 album thomas pridgin is a god

there much better off with pridge, he's alot better than john was for the mars volta.

They are both fantastic drummers.

what a crappy song

this was good. i liked it not a lot but liked it

poop

there much better off with pridge, he's alot better than john was for the mars volta

Jon was amazing, but he's right about Pridgent being better for volta. I'm not sure of the exact details as of why he ever left, I just remember him stating in a magazine that it was the best for everyone. Hmm...

i think john just didnt enjoy the direction tmv was going in, plus he has like 10 bands he is in. omar compared john to a girlfriend who doesnt like your friends and doesnt laugh at your jokes. hahah i think he was just over it, and wanted to move on.

nice pie chart MaskAtTheMasquerade you see to many ppl with good pie charts on here like that. it seems to be mostly metal heads. i love to see ppl who have a vast taste in music. so kudos to your pie chart

sounds like the mars volta. meh.

This is promising.. cant wait for the new album.

Appreciate that man. Gotta have a little bit of it all

Yeah someone told me something about that if I remember correctly. Lol being compared to a crap-like girlfriend is no fun.

Since We've Been Wrong, live acoustic version, from New Years Eve 2007/2008:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGazG10-494&feature=related

We should be getting the studio version soon, can't wait to compare the two.This Message Edited On 04.26.09

I see what you're saying Iluvator. And this song is good, but they really should try some other stuff out. It all sounds very typical Volta to me, with out much development.

wow...
I don't know if that was good or bad. saying wow seems to cover me either way.

Since We've Been Wrong is pretty different really.

No, you're right that song. I meant Cotopaxi. It's just like hykinix said, "Bedlam 2.0"

Song is v. good.

Yeah. I definitely wouldn't mind if they did another album as aggressive as Bedlam was.

Wow, that was seriously good!

theodore > pridgen!
but yeah i must say the new song does sound good.
atleast omar is learning that this isnt just another solo project, maybe well get lucky and end up with something even moderately close to deloused or frances. This Message Edited On 04.27.09

The middle part = 21st Century Schizoid Man

Does anybody else notice this. This is better then any other MV song I've heard, and yet, I still don't like it.

No, you're right that song. I meant Cotopaxi. It's just like hykinix said, "Bedlam 2.0"

^ Ah I was not aware that was mentioned by him. Makes more sense now I suppose, albeit, you can't say Cotopaxi is at all mellow.

If you look at the comments someone said the albums leaked.

btw are digs currently bugged atm?

yea they're very late to show up...

"yea they're very late to show up..."

That explains it. Thanks.




Can't wait to hear this albums Cassandra Gemni like track

I was a huge fan of the aggresive stance TBIG took so I'm excited about this. Having loved everything from this band, I'm looking forward to softer acoustic elements too!

Albums for me go...

De-loused > TBIG > Amp/Frances > Tremulant

That was kinda meh, but I want so bad for this to be awesome.

Pretty ossimmm!
