well i thought the new board needed a secret samadhi thread. this has to be one of the most haunted sounding albums ever. i remember being half a sleep one day listeing to this and i heard for the first time that little riff in ghost. i was just shocked that i missed it for so long. such a great riff to play. so simple and genius.

is it just my sight or does the merica letters look smaller than the other song titles on the cd case?

It's a decent album, but I think it was one of Live's worst efforts. It sounds to me like Live wanted desperately to not write Throwing Copper II, be mysterious and sound dark, and all of that comes off as very pretentious to me. It lacks the innate energy that all of their albums have, and feels the most awkward. That's one of the greatest assets SFBM has: it sounds like they really wanted to write those songs. SS sounds forced and lost.


Lmao.

You're a complete fucking moron.
