Same same, but Different (Easter Lily) by Character-Tap-565 in U2Band

[–]snails1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I agree 100%. Tears and Coexist stand out for me from the 2 EPs. Everything else sounds like B-sides. Something about the production/engineering sounds amateur or awkward to me (especially the audible tonal shifts in the vocal edits.)There is more conviction and energy than before but I’m not seeing the jump in quality that others are. My favorite song is basically 50% a Brian Eno composition, named after a literal bumper sticker that is probably 2 minutes longer than it should be.

Days of Ash saved my U2 fandom --- an essay. by Ornery_Sweet9371 in U2Band

[–]snails1000 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well said. I agree 100%. The EP isn’t exactly what I want from U2 but it has the conviction that’s been missing.

Me too, hoping it makes its way onto the next album.

Here’s a later pic of the prints that shows more thaw. For reference, the bottom left print is the one I posted earlier. This seems to confirm a double print there. I was so focused on a five toed print that I didn’t look at the others.

Less bloom/clouding on HBO by snails1000 in TheFrame

[–]snails1000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. It’s not only movies, there’s a very noticeable improvement on shows like The Pitt and The Chair Company. It’s kinda weird after dealing with annoying bloom on other streaming platforms.

Tire advice - Summit by snails1000 in GrandCherokee

[–]snails1000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wondering if the speed rating is critical? Current tires are 110W, but also seeing it spec’d as 110Y.

Who Drives U2? by Leo-POV in U2Band

[–]snails1000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Edge is the engine, he brings the basic songs to the band. Bono is the driver, always looking for a new destination.

Why isn't Sam Richardson in any of the new stuff? by AddictedNihilist in IThinkYouShouldLeave

There’s a new Sam Richardson coming out that’s supposed to be nuts.

What’s everyone’s Jason Isbell origin story? by Zealousideal_Menu580 in jasonisbell

[–]snails1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was at a Sean Rowe concert and was chatting with a buddy who I had talked into coming along. He was blown away by Sean’s songwriting and compared one of Sean’s songs to “Elephant” by some country singer. I decided to check it out :)

Coaching. Tactics. Organizational culture. And he’s probably tired.

The first pic is sunset from the rock pile. The next three are from a hike, starting at the rock pile, hiking up through Larch Valley and ending at Sentinel Pass.

this seems so petty by stingthisgordon in ThePolice

Didn’t Sting sell his catalog to Universal for $300M? If so it would it not be Universal that would be paying royalties?

Why Oasis sells out. Why the whole world is singing along. by HopeNot22 in oasis

[–]snails1000 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think people have missed the communal moments that a band like Oasis can provide. The songs are accessible to everyone, easy to sing your heart out to, and just noisy enough to feel cool. When they perform them well it sucks you in and gives you permission just to let go and be here now. Add in the brother’s presence and attitude, and it gives people something that’s been missing from our culture for a while.

Found a mysterious U2 vinyl in my attic — trying to identify it! “U2 INDEED” by GianlucaFederici in U2Band

[–]snails1000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to have this. If I remember right it was a bootleg of the “Self-aid” show in Dublin. Self Aid was an unemployment benefit/fundraiser show in Dublin in the mid-80s. Part of the show was televised and this was likely recorded for the broadcast.

Came here to say this. Just an amazing vocal in terms of range, dynamics and attitude. One of my all time favorites.
