LOVE Secret Samadhi! One of my favourite albums. So this pissed me off.

That article is brutal! Secret Samadhi wasn't well received upon release, even fans of Live questioned the lyrics and sound. What did you think of the album when you first heard it?

I don't care what some old article says, I love the album.

This is a great question that I think deserves its own thread.

I remember seeing LJ on MTV before the album came out and thinking to myself "man, that song is awesome and it's only the first song they've released from the album". I probably watched for hours waiting for it to come back on again.

I went to the record store to buy SS the second it came out at midnight. I was the first in line. I remember listening to it that night and feeling a little disappointment, especially after the high expectations that LJ had set. The album was darker and nothing like TC. After a few listens the album began to grow on me and as I said I love the album.

The only song I've never liked at all is Ghost. Every once on a while I'll give it another shot but I just don't like it.

I love Ghost. It took me a while to get into Samadhi overall, though.
