From the Archive - Primavera Sound 2008: DiS diary, day two
Only heard a few tracks.
After ruining Amputechture excitement by pre-release downloading, i've vowed never to do it again.
Didn't think much of Machine Gun but the rest were good.
Surely Amputechture
ruined ampetechture
non?
"Amputechture excitement"
- as seen above
i've only heard machine gun and the rip
I love 'em both so high hopes for the album
its actually delivers
on the promise of those tracks, really really well made album, didn't see it comin'
I think so
The Rip and We Carry On particularly.
I dont like Machine Gun
But Im sure the album as a whole will be good, they are after all a pretty professional outfit!
anyone who has heard this
have any idea whether the last track, 'Threads' is in anyway to do with the 1980's British Film of the same name? The film is the most harrowing thing i have ever seen bar none, and as the track is pretty stark and gloomy i wondered...
"Greatest record of 2008 so far?"
Yes, by a mile, its phenomenal.
Only me...
that thinks it's bloody awful tuneless drivel then?
Very well made tuneless drivel but tuneless drivel none the less.
Maybe so far..
but it is never going to be the best album released this year.
i think
subtle's exiting arm is the best of the year so far, though i havent heard third fully. i find machine gun a bit annoying
