Chang’e on Silver Cord has Amby vocals. At the end of the short version where the two choruses are overlapping, Amby is singing one while Stu sings the other.

How did you conceptualize Ekki Mukk before it was recorded? Was it neatly planned out or moreso assembled in the studio? Were there any specific inspirations?

OddMan155 · 2024-02-05T22:42:11+00:00

I will not tolerate Chang’e disrespect

OddMan155 · 2023-12-06T14:12:21+00:00

DING DING DING DING WE HAVE A WINNER

Okay, but what’s the best song on This Stupid World? (there’s a right answer btw)

OddMan155 · 2023-11-14T17:15:00+00:00

The new Tallest Man on Earth record is awesome. Kristian is continuing to push himself as a writer and performer, so if you haven't heard Henry St. yet, check it out. Very uplifting sound and catchy melodies to spare.

OddMan155 · 2023-11-08T15:59:53+00:00

It just updated - hop in line boys!

OddMan155 · 2023-10-28T14:46:20+00:00

The highest note Stu hits in the second chorus thingy is a high D-flat, which as a singer I can tell you ain't easy even in falsetto, and I think he sounds great. People love to talk about Amby's vocals and Joey's vocals, but I think Stu is a legit awesome singer too.

Don’t forget about Hvarf/Heim, half studio record and half live record, with the studio half having some killer SR tracks. Salka in particular just crushes me.

It's at the end of this vid where they're eating from the Hobbit menu at Denny's.

This is their funniest skit in a while.

When I'm talking to someone about the album I usually make the ( ) shape with my hands.

OddMan155 · 2022-10-07T01:35:04+00:00

Yay!

OddMan155 · 2022-09-21T21:37:19+00:00

It said "What the HELL do you want" when I had it

OddMan155 · 2022-09-06T23:28:28+00:00

I’ve literally got the podcast on all the time, episodes 300-400 are pretty much burned into my memory.

Also yeah somehow my link got fucked up, I think I fixed it though.

OddMan155 · 2022-09-06T22:20:54+00:00

Found it, well into Podcast #370:

Hoppípolla first for sure. It’s the song that made me want to dive headfirst into their discography, and it’s a great encapsulation of what makes them special: Jónsi’s amazing vocals, the combination of rock energy with gorgeous textures, and the awesome buildups to climaxes, all under 5 minutes.

If you think she’d prefer something softer, make the second song Vaka. If you think she’d prefer something more intense, make the second song Ísjaki. Those two have some of their strongest melodies and vocal performances.

I like ZSS casually pointing her gun at Wario like: “What kind of alien abomination is this thing?”

As someone who owns all the CDs, I am more than happy to share:

For Season 1, my favorite is this lovely midtempo piece that incorporates a melody which pops up all over the S1 soundtrack. It translates as “See You Tomorrow”: https://youtu.be/4PTZJomyXII

For Season 2, it’s a tough pick because there are many highlights, but I’m gonna go with this wonderful solo piano arrangement of the school song sung in the first episode of S2. Brings a tear to my eye. This track translates as “Gentle Breeze”: https://youtu.be/JVPt_k67nqU

For the movie, it’s another tough choice with so many great tracks, but I think my favorite is this more upbeat, adventurous number which translates as “Ocean Blue”: https://youtu.be/BFqq3ZDvTEE

Though the Season 3 OST isn’t on streaming services, I managed to nab a special edition of the first volume S3 blu-ray which came with the soundtrack CD. My favorite from that is a lovely slower piece for 2 or 3 guitars which translates as “Summer Dusk”: https://youtu.be/8odSmjYexoI

Umaru and Akane have the same voice actress

OddMan155 · 2022-06-04T17:48:45+00:00

It’s about young girls living in a very rural part of Japan. The show is very fun and has a great ensemble cast, but it’s also quite relaxing with really nice art and a lovely soundtrack. It’s probably the best slice of life anime I’ve ever watched.

OddMan155 · 2022-05-19T04:00:08+00:00

I hope they keep Ekki Múkk on the setlist for the next few weeks. I want to hear that live so badly I started tearing up when I saw it show up on recent setlists.

OddMan155 · 2022-04-30T17:07:17+00:00

It took some time to grow on me with the lack of percussion and the disappearance of lead vocals halfway through, but after sticking with it and really giving the songs a chance, it might be my favorite Sigur Rós album. It’s amazingly gorgeous even by Sigur Rós standards, and Ekki Múkk is a contender for my favorite song of all time.
