Thought I would put this up as I know there are a few people who like this band around here.
Available to stream on the US site.

To me it sound more like the old band but there is something on the production I am not feeling. Better than what I expected and reminds me a little of Zwan in places. I will have to wait and see what my vinyl copy sounds like when it arrives.
Streaming one week only.

I'm dying of laughter.

spoiler alert: it blows

I was going to make a snarky comment, but I'll actually give it a listen.

The 13yo me wants it to be a visit to be Mellon Collie town via the Siamese Dream highway.

The 29yo me knows that it won't be.

Yeah, I'm not loading iTunes up just to listen to an album I'm going to be disappointed by.

There will never be another Mellon Collie or Siamese Dream.

Maybe as collective musicians on ILF we can write it. Everyone interested writes, records and submits their best effort at an old-school-Pumpkins-like track.

How cool would that be!?

That... Actually sounds awesome. EDIT I DID NOT MEAN THIS ALBUM I MEANT THAT IDEA Maybe there's finally a use for my whiny voice!

The album is ok though? I expected it to be worse.

I've been pitching this idea for weeks an nobody seems to want to bite on it. We could host it on a dropbox, even. I'd be down for even doing a collective album where we just toss tracks around and add to/manipulate them. We could all use Reaper, since it's a free DAW that we can all get.

Apparently Billy-Boy is promoting his new album by expressing his jealousy and resentment of Radiohead's ever-growing success. Not a very common business tactic...lets see if it pans out for him.

Yaaay, I already use Reaper and so don't have to learn shit. I think the collective album would be really fun, never done something like that and I'd be very on for. Someone should make a thread to gauge interest.

moral conundrum:

pirate the album but not listen to it to piss off Billy Boy, but make it easier for people to get it/think its good

do nothing, but don't piss off Billy Boy.

i tweeted at him for advice

Hmmmmmm.

No thank you.

I don't even know why I get my hopes up anymore.
