I am unironically jamming MTAE right now

Ram27 · 07-13-2018, 07:49 AM

it's....not bad

the lead parts are nice

tommy's snare has so much reverb on it holy shit

send help

pavementtune · 07-13-2018, 07:51 AM

no help from me, this is still on my gym playlist. (I don't do gym currently, so that helps.)

now do some sit ups to Dori-a-a-a-an and try not to laugh, I dare you.

Forgotten Child · 07-13-2018, 08:53 AM

It's not bad, it's awful.

thedeadofnight · 07-13-2018, 08:57 AM

I think leaving Solara off the record was a huge mistake, I feel that small addition would've propelled the band back into the mainstream for good.

That would mean no solara on the reunion. Fucking billy, should've recorded and released that song before.

LOL

I like "Tiberius" on this album but other than that, it's somewhere between painfully mediocre and awful.

incubator · 07-13-2018, 09:04 AM

it's good music to be played in the background in mid-priced ladies clothes shops.

a lot of the songs would work well in an advert for a plus sized woman clothing company.. a few attractive, curvy woman laugh and pose in stylish clothes while run2me plays .

tiberius and oneandall would be great on an advert for clothes for 12 year old boys

incubator · 07-13-2018, 09:06 AM

run2me would also work really well in an advert for tampons

laxatives as well. I can actually see the toilet bowl singing "run to me, run to meeee" after a constipated woman swallows a tablet.

Shadaloo · 07-13-2018, 10:25 AM

You're trying too hard man

The thing that was fucking terrible yesterday is not made better in comparison to the new terrible

Worst pile of shit in BC's history

TuralyonW3 · 07-13-2018, 10:43 AM

One good song (Tiberius)
Two ok songs (One and All, Drum + Fife)
One passable song (Monuments)

Rest forgettable tripe

incubator · 07-13-2018, 10:45 AM

Drum And Fife starts playing. Sad looking, smartly dressed man in his 50s walks alone in black and white. Takes a pill. Chorus kicks in and the guy is looking happy and walking on the beach with his attractive wife. Voice over says something about living life to the fullest with anti erectile dysfunction tablets. Fade out of the couple hugging on the beach as billy sings "..and I will bang this drum.."

Ram27 · 07-13-2018, 11:57 AM

Which was the riff that Corgan stole from Pastichio Medley? Can't remember // don't want to listen again

Shadaloo · 07-13-2018, 12:03 PM

The Viper

Xteenmachine · 07-13-2018, 02:53 PM

Anaise!
One and All
Dorian (pretty good)

That's it.

BurtSampson · 07-13-2018, 02:59 PM

I still think Being Beige is a decent song fight me

NEVER BEEN KISSED BY A GIRL LIKE YOU

Forgotten Child · 07-13-2018, 05:15 PM

Anaise! is also the only song I still like on the album.

houseofglass11 · 07-13-2018, 06:22 PM

I still spin it. It’s not bad at all. Tommy’s drumming was great. Also some of Bills best guitar
tones in a good while.

Shallowed · 07-13-2018, 06:36 PM

I can only remember One and All from this album.

The riff is pretty cool. Sounds like it could have been a Mellon Collie b-side. Which is pretty much the best thing that a post-2007 Pumpkins song could hope to be.

Funbags · 07-13-2018, 07:26 PM

It’d have been way better with Jimmy on it and Howard Willing no where in sight (whose entire role seemed to be to neuter SP into something palatable for modern rock radio).

HerVelvetSpleen · 07-13-2018, 08:09 PM

Tiberius is the only Sp2 song I listen to with any sort of regularity. It's a better album than Oceania and TBK, but that's not saying much.

fuzzyroes · 07-13-2018, 10:00 PM

Right on Ram. It's not a bad album. One of my favorite releases of the reunion era. I really like Tiberius, One and All, Anti-Hero and Dorian. Anaise is pretty good too.

jparker800 · 07-14-2018, 07:57 AM

Something’s wrong here. The ratios are off... it’s supposed to be 12 negative opinions for every positive one

I would have liked to hear him perform these songs at least for one show.

amoergosum · 07-14-2018, 08:28 AM

Here's how I listen to Monuments To An Elegy:

1. One And All
2. Monuments
3. Drum + Five
4. Tiberius
5. Anaise!

Ram27 · 07-14-2018, 09:58 AM

for me, it's more of a

cherub rock
quiet
today
hummer
rocket
disarm
soma
geek usa
mayonaise
spaceboy
silverfuck
sweet sweet
luna

kinda vibe

except for yesterday.

SP > motley crue
Jimmy > Tommy

Billy's fall from grace is still kinda mindblowing

Love toms index finger on bills nip in this pic

Makes up for the fact it’s not his middle he’s stretchin, which would’ve been doper

T&T · 07-14-2018, 10:55 AM

i opened the thread not remembering any of the songs (how cool of me)
but after reading a bunch of the songtitles a few of the melodies did come back

being beige- actually a good song, just shit production.
dorian - please shut up, couldn't he actually write lyrics?
run2me - this is sp at their worst trying to be somehting they are not
Drum + Five - it's just even more beige than being beige

this album sucked. not even this thread is gonna encourage me to go do a new listen.
