My thoughts on the new album. 1-5 stars (5 being best):
Overall, decent album. A lot better than MTAE. I hated almost every song on that album, and only barely tolerated "Run to Me". Ogilala gives me hope. Really liked Aeronaut - the strings brought me back to the Mellon Collie era. Also, some of the dreamy melodies in Spaniards really felt like old SP.

No review from Pitchfork this time.
Guess they didn't get paid. |

So we're all still using this thread to talk about the album because none of us felt like buying it, right?

The vocals are really the issue. While his voice is certainly stronger, and he doesn't need to scream to reach the high notes, I don't really like the sound it makes. It's not what I'd like to hear from Billy Corgan; too much vibrato and too many too-high notes (which he reaches, I just don't like them). If he'd made 10 songs singing them like "Soothe" or "To Sheila", then I'd be on for it.
That prevents me from getting into the songs. Pity, as I'm sure musically they are nice. As for a new SP album, he seems to be pretty conscious about what constitutes the "old sound" and has made mention of how they used to layer the vocals. He did say he wished to record an album of the old style with the old members. So hopefully the vocals will be more SD, less Zeitgeist. |

The Pitchfork review brings up some fair points, even if I think it's a more agreeable album than they do. That "Cain isn't able" lyric really is a clanger.
Weird that they hate on Zeitgeist and seem to enjoy Monuments! |

"Records like Mellon Collie showed that if you bake a sour apple with enough sugar, cinnamon, and butter, you can create something truly succulent. Rubin, bizarrely, seems to believe fans only want the apple, not the crumble."
Uh... Hmmm... |

how is it weird that journo A gave Zeitgeist a 4.9, journo B reviewed Monuments with a 6, and this one gave Ogi a (fair, to me) 5.7?
