I thought this was going to be a racist thread about Iha living in Japan.

"Iha live in Japan
He a poor fuck
He eat cat for breakfast
Dog for dinner"

you're thinking of China. Japanese people don't eat cats and dogs.

Japan is actually civilized and contributes to the world while China does not. It's a pretty glaring difference, if you ask me.

i'm not expecting a whole lot but i'll give it a listen.

rottenugly · 02-21-2012, 03:47 PM

His first album was okay.

scottytheoneand · 02-21-2012, 03:58 PM

the HU podcast is interesting. sounds like there was a fair amount of promotion in Japan for this concert (which included a lot of other bands). But james showed up and only played 5 songs.

Slurpee · 02-21-2012, 04:18 PM

Well he still can't sing, and he still writes like a girl.

Still looks like a girl.
bet he moans when he's getting fucked like a japanese girl
"nyeh! nyeh! nyeh! nyeh!"
That's why D'arcy dumped him.

Esty · 02-21-2012, 04:48 PM

Classic Iha. Good job dude.

T&T · 02-21-2012, 04:49 PM

ohwell.

CrabbMan · 02-21-2012, 06:36 PM

I kinda like that Gemini song on first listen. When I last checked out Let it Come Down, maybe a year ago, I was reminded of a few songs that I found enjoyable. I would say his style hasn't changed too much.

pale_princess · 02-21-2012, 06:41 PM

excellent tunes!

i'll have the biggest shit-eating grin if the critics praise it. sooooooooooo many sour grapes for old man bill.

not that i'm predicting it. but it'd be kewl, huh!

paranoid · 02-21-2012, 10:34 PM

these songs are all really, really good. great melodies, arrangements, etc etc. really excited to hear this new record.

eh, i wouldn't say they're really, really good, but they're decent, much better than his last album, anyway.

wHATcOLOR · 02-21-2012, 11:50 PM

well it's not objectively great, or even very good, but damn it, he is our james!! i miss that guy. i really miss what he brought to the pumpkins. i really enjoyed listening to these songs. i wouldn't ask anyone else to listen to them, but really enjoyed it

fuzzyroes · 02-22-2012, 02:27 AM

really enjoying make believe and gemini... Some of the vocals were a little shaky but James was always much better in the studio than live anyhow..

I'm actually really looking forward to the new album!

So far from what I've heard: Look to the sky > Oceania

amoergosum · 02-22-2012, 03:38 AM

He can't sing well live but the new songs are great!
I'm looking forward to listen to the studio versions.

BlissedandGone2 · 02-22-2012, 03:36 AM

I cant believe most of you actually like this.

This is so bad. So so bad.

This is comparable to the output James has done before. Were you expecting a rock opera?

I was kind of just "meh" about these. I'm reserving judgment for the album. I think they'll sound better with more instrumentation.
