1hr 12min for 20 tracks is exciting

You're right, I fucked that up.

Ram is obviously correct (thanks, dude). 28 tracks at 121 mins, not 1hr 21mins. I was distracted and stupid.

Still, 8 less tracks than MCIS. Taking that 8 x Cyr's avg. 3.6 mins = 29 mins. 29 + 72 = 101, 20 mins shorter than MCIS. Does MCIS suck if you cut 20 mins? No.

We have no clue what these songs are yet. Some of them could be short instrumentals, some will be likely be longer than the avg. track time. Why initiate judgements about a record merely based on its projected length, which may change as the song data becomes more precise and fixed?

[Cool As Ice Cream]

it is not exciting, though.

[vitaldust]

Also, the length and structure of M2 may provide a better sense of what to expect than MCIS.

M2 = 25 songs; 94 mins. Avg. track length 3.76 mins.

3.76 x 5 = 18.8

94 - 18.8 = 75.2 mins

It is for me! But I really enjoy Cyr and COL. I read the lyrics as densely allusive and see the language operating in a sophisticated lexical network. I'm into the heavy, dark rhythms and the sense of experimental play.

True, but you could please cut out the foul language.

Thank you.

Billy also called Cotillions a fucking double album. I guess Billy believes that because it's on 2 records, it's a fucking double album. Though most fucking albums are on 2 records, some even 3, but they're not fucking called double or triple albums. But that's fucking Billy for ya.

Fuck.

Interesting, I read them as a dense network of cliched, sophomoric word salad garnished with more than a dash of obfuscatory pretension. But to each one’s own, I suppose.

"album" refers to the vinyl format. In this sense, it is a double album.

[MyKeyZ]

Foolofatook owns all the clean/censored versions of albums that you find at your local Walmart store.

His favorite Nirvana track is Waif Me.

right, I see the "obfuscatory pretension" as artful, abstract, semiotic weaving Cf: at least half of Adore and certainly everything since and including Machina. I like the density; the violence done to language and sense. It is, in the formalist sense, poetic.

Billy refers to MCIS as a "double album" when it's in fact a triple album on vinyl so that argument really doesn't hold up. He's also said for 20 years that Machina was intended to be a "double album" when it was released as a double LP set on vinyl when it came out. Sort of throws that argument out the window.
