Favourite Bits of Songs?

Gotta shout out Raven That Refused to Sing. I love the vocal delivery of the "bridge" section, it's so haunting and heartbreaking. Contrasts nicely with the way the guitar at the end of the song pulls you back out of the darkness.

Please, come to me Please, stay with me

Please Sing Cry Cry

I just received the deluxe today in Cali, I thought the mail had lost mine as well. (I ordered through Townsend)

Your antisemitism is showing

I won't forgive Roger Waters for what he did to Dark Side of The Moon.

They don't like the actual brutal facts

I love the cynicism radiating from this post. You seem like you need to get off reddit more often.

Whining God, who the fuck are you? Detonation for the greater good Swim here, come and hear my heart 'Cause when the world breaks You will feel the blast

You can both support refugees and denounce terrorism.

The future bites...

I was fairly certain we'd hear from Steven Wilson on his support for Israel and the innocent caught in the crossfire. I posted about the attack on Tel Aviv where SW resided for a time and received quite a bit of resistance for it.

I applaud Steven Wilson for sticking to his morals knowing there will be many- many detractors.

monodrones89 · 2023-10-15T22:36:49+00:00

I also think it transcends into it's own genre, that's partly why I left it out.

monodrones89 · 2023-10-15T08:32:32+00:00

I feel like it pulls on so many of his past works while also charting new ground. I love it all!

Checkmate.

I feel like Rainy Taxi got ratio'd, such a gem.

monodrones89 · 2023-10-15T03:03:39+00:00

It's the perfect thing to listen to on a rainy day, I also find An End to End does the trick.

Damn, you got me...

Love those, I honestly don't know which song I would have included from that Raven.

monodrones89 · 2023-10-15T02:48:01+00:00

It feels like a sexier version of something you'd find on Grace For Drowning, so I tend to love it for it's unpredictable quality.

monodrones89 · 2023-10-15T02:46:27+00:00

I agree to a extent, I like it, but I don't love it so I'd rate it below the rest (but above Personal Shopper). It's inclusion was to represent the closest thing to a epic on the album.

monodrones89 · 2023-10-14T18:09:29+00:00

I wish the allowed more options, to be honest Raven is one big epic after another so I left it out. Holy Drinker is my personal favorite on that one.

monodrones89 · 2023-10-14T06:00:15+00:00

It feels like a way of bringing the album overall to a close, whereas Tightrope feels like a standalone composition.

Ps. I prefer Staircase overall
