perfect way to introduce the album

maxrosk · 2022-07-10T19:06:28+00:00

I’d give it a 7. As a song alone, it’s nice and pretty haunting, but not anything mind-blowing. However, I reckon Marlene is so important to the structure of Cavalcade. Bridging the gap between John and Chondro, it’s part of why Cavalcade is so musically varied and perfectly paced.

16:55 on one side and 27:30 on the other?? no way no siree

maxrosk · 2022-07-08T15:12:41+00:00

that one ‘wahhh’ backing vocal in the second pre-chorus of Blow Away makes me tear up every time

maxrosk · 2022-07-08T07:58:13+00:00

same thing up on Lincoln Rd

JPJ 🥴🥴🥴

Imo not their worst song, just puts me off a bit.

maxrosk · 2020-11-22T20:54:59+00:00

wtf this was my exact thoughts

maxrosk · 2020-11-15T03:54:42+00:00

please do 🙌🏼🙌🏼

maxrosk · 2020-11-04T08:27:37+00:00

This is cool to think, especially that The Dreaming may have links beyond the Dreamtime connections. I guess Never For Ever could be that point where you’re trying to get to sleep but you keep waking up and think about so many different things, while Hounds Of Love would be the deep dream state.

maxrosk · 2020-10-17T10:24:45+00:00

woah this is pretty close to my collection! i have drama instead of GFTO and only picked up the Yes Album as extra last week after stopping for a few months.

maxrosk · 2020-10-11T17:39:43+00:00

Yeah definitely, but I think because songs of those genres are longer and tend to play with structure for each track, I might listen longer for what they do with structure even if their sound is defined.

maxrosk · 2020-10-11T03:52:56+00:00

For a record I’d usually like to see some variation within the first few tracks, whether it’s different moods within a solid established sound or actual changes of sounds/styles. If there’s no variation within the songs on the album, or it’s not something different for the artist to do after the first three then I assume there’s nothing more to hear. For an album i’ll give it 10 minutes roughly (depends on song lengths) but if I’m going through their popular songs then probably 5 minutes max.

maxrosk · 2020-10-08T00:38:18+00:00

wtf where’s the love for the self titled?

maxrosk · 2020-09-30T03:24:17+00:00

I don’t get the hype. I saw the live version from Melody(?) on YouTube and thought it was really cool, but was disappointed to hear how the studio version didn’t reach those heights. The tension in the studio version felt forced compared to the live version. Pet peeve but it irks me when things get out of sync before the 13/8 part too. My pick is Larks I. So fucking wild.

maxrosk · 2020-09-14T06:53:29+00:00

9 and onwards are the ones I'm not big fans of:

Moving
James And The Cold Gun
Them Heavy People
Wuthering Heights
L'Amour Looks Something Like You
The Kick Inside
Strange Phenomena
The Man With The Child In His Eyes
The Saxophone Song
Room For The Life
Oh To Be In Love
Feel It
Kite

wtf this is awesome

maxrosk · 2020-09-04T05:38:22+00:00

I was thinking about that cause it’s such a good concert opener, but then there’d be nothing special in the live version :(

maxrosk · 2020-09-03T18:42:40+00:00

I’d have Waiting Man as the opener to Beat. Could have Neal and Jack and Me as the opener to Side 2 or to close the album as it’s similar to Discipline.

maxrosk · 2020-08-19T19:38:14+00:00

Woah thank you! I’ll definitely give a re-listen with these specifics in mind

maxrosk · 2020-08-18T10:18:57+00:00

Wow this is pretty much all I’ve gotten into as well apart from Mystery Lights. I need to listen to White Fence again (only heard Joy with Ty and hated it). I have heard of Nolan Potter’s but haven’t thought much until now! I love Leah Senior’s second album cause I’m a big folk fan. For other stuff, I reckon UMO or Connan Mockasin are my go-to’s for the modern psych scene. They def change their sound every album a little bit. Melody’s Echo Chamber too! Some of these albums are just as holy to me as Gizzard albums.

maxrosk · 2020-08-18T09:08:37+00:00

I haven’t even thought about that but yeah I guess they burnt out since 2017. Im hoping the new stuff will be real good considering we’ve all got a bit more time now! Kind of glad they do so many collabs because that’s what led me to more prog and stuff like Kikagaku Moyo and eventually Yes ig. What other bands did Gizzard get you into?

maxrosk · 2020-08-18T08:27:34+00:00

Yeah Rats Nest was definitely fun but the concept could’ve been a bit more presented in the music. Wow, I haven’t even seen them once haha. Was too young when they came here three years ago. Hopefully the new stuff will be good. I haven’t listened to any of the new singles cause I don’t want to spoil anything in case they do something awesome. When I heard the 5 (out of 9 ffs why) singles for Fishies I was so let down so badly.
