If Teargarden was one album
If teargarden wasn't the shit show failure it turned out to be and one album's worth of songs was left, which songs would you pick for that album?
One And All My Love is Winter Song For a Son The Celestial Violet Rays One Diamond One Heart Dorian Pinwheels Tiberius Glissandra Inkless Drum and Fife Cottonwood Symphony |

i feel like this thread has been made 3 times before. blah blah none of them sound like they're even from the same album blah blah consistency blah blah different mastering blah blah it'd still suck blah blah polish a turd.
i don't hate all SP 2.0 material, but that's the consensus on this. |

you're missing...
when the cocks crow as rome burns gossamer (perhaps a modest 12-minute version?) the march hare quasar SP albums require the heavier barn-burning material... they just suck balls as a 'radiohead' or whatever.... |

Adore is where the band started doing the "cringeworthy shit"
Adore is my least favourite 88-2000 album |

speaking of TbK being "one album," does anyone think Bill-E WON'T repackage everything, '09 through the new album, as "The Complete TbK" or some shit?

well, since they debuted as rome burns around the same time they started playing owata and a song for a son, and when the cocks crow was demoed and played live with that backwards clock society or whatever, i think it's fair to say that they're ALL 'teargarden' era

maybe he'll remix and remaster everything from 09 - to monuments, with a resequenced tracklisting that best shows his original vision for the teargarden by kaleidyscope concept, including unreleased studio versions of all your favourite teargarden era tracks... but contractual disputes with kerry brown will see it shelved until 2032

Just think, Teargarden sounded so awful that after Billy shit-canned him, Kerry went to Hipsters United just to point out that he, in fact, did NOT produce Teargarden.

after having recently spun or at least skimmed all 3 of the pumpkins recent releases (teargarden songs, oceania, MTaE); it's safe to say oceania is by far the least offensive of the 3. yeah it's not very good, but it's not embarrassingly bad like the other 2. I forgot just how cringe-worthy some of the MTAE songs are. i've never made it more than about 20 seconds into Anti-Hero and i probably never will.

Remember though that MTAE is a concept album. Howard Stern actually decoded what Billy meant when he said it was a tribute to what the public thought the band was. Pretty brilliant concept, imo. If you listen to the record from that perspective - a band imitating a former iteration of itself that never was in the first place, giving people what they think they want - it's by far the best of the three. And it's short, that's why it beats Oceania. That record is five songs too long.

Fuck that. It's always some excuse with bill. "Oh no I MEANT it to be empty pop, because, uh, that's what people think they want! So, uh, I'm still a genius!" Also who is bill to decide what we "think we want?" I want bill to start acting like a musician who gives a fuck about music again, plain and simple. Pretty sure the handful of people still paying attention want the same |

Also, bill's published comments (catalogued and easily referenced in a thread on this very site) during the recording of EMTEA belie any suggestion he was following some grand concept. No. Simply stated, bill was trying to get on the radio again. He wants teenagers to be humming "we are we are so young do do do" the way they are singing along to the band fun's "toniggggght we are young."
There is no concept. There is just a sorrow pod with an infinite belly |
