reprise85 06-12-2012 12:07 AM

it's a trap

meangreensp 06-12-2012 12:12 AM

it's okay because the thread has gone to "byrne is soooooooo fucking bad but i listened to oceania knowing i hate the way byrne plays"

Trotskilicious 06-12-2012 12:14 AM

poll fails without being able to see who is voting 4 stars

you have to make sure these aren't the same people that would give sixteen stone and purple 4 star ratings because you know they hang out here

meangreensp 06-12-2012 12:15 AM

it really is a 4 out of 5

trust me

maybe a 3.5/5

Eh, I think a lot of people are ashamed to like it tho.

reprise85 06-12-2012 12:27 AM

He does suck.

fuzzyroes 06-12-2012 12:29 AM

Yeah... I voted 3/5 too... It for sure has its epic moments... But a lot of filler type material too.

CrabbMan 06-12-2012 02:45 AM

I'm giving it a 3 on my first listen. I would say it could certainly grow on me and become a 4. I dislike most of the synth stuff, but I guess it helps Oceania fit in with TGBK, but for the most part I do like the way the album sounds. I really like that it sounds like it fits together without the songs sounding too much the same.
I look forward to getting to know it more and finding what my favorite parts, which songs are the strongest. I hope I have some favorite parts....

GLOWer 06-12-2012 03:02 AM

It's not as good as the nutbusters on Oboard think. It is good, though. It can be samey, but it sounds honest in a way Cbag hasn't since 2005.

3.5/5 -- all of pre-2000 SP, TheFutureEmbrace/Oceania.

Shallowed 06-12-2012 03:19 AM

Hey all you new posters, you don't have to make every single post really abrasive just to fit in.

vbshlofbvgos 06-12-2012 03:42 AM

you just need to get laid dude

You're wrong. Purple is 5/5.

Esty 06-12-2012 05:38 AM

this poll sucks. you cant see who voted for what. can't you do anything right duoshit?

Space Girl 1979 06-12-2012 06:18 AM

The only reason so many people are voting 4 is because everything since Zeitgeist has been a firm 2 or 3 at best.

Album deserves a 3 at best... if you are forgiving.

dean_r_koontz 06-12-2012 07:50 AM

from what i've heard it's better than everything since Adore. Better songwriting, better production and sincere sounding vocals.

dean_r_koontz 06-12-2012 08:02 AM

4/5 on my first listen but i'm perhaps not in the right mood to really judge.

dean_r_koontz 06-12-2012 08:04 AM

pale hourse is probably the one i respond to the most emotionally. a bit adorish but with a little more edge to it. me like.

dean_r_koontz 06-12-2012 08:06 AM

chimera is nice too. i like this album.

This.

imploding b0lly 06-12-2012 10:07 AM

I haven't listened to it yet.

But I gave it a 1/5.

Astur 06-12-2012 10:12 AM

that's the spirit

Grox 06-12-2012 10:17 AM

this is pretty good. 4/5. i think the best positive change is the attitude adjustment since zeitgeist. the vox are still bad but the songs are of a better spirit/vibe/mood/whatever. it's not so cloyingly/contrived and negative, political, whatever, it's an album of happyish songs written by a sad, lost man with awesome, watery, drippy, colorful production. love the final fantasy-esque synths

LaBelle 06-12-2012 10:25 AM

3/5 in my opinion. Decent album marred by some songs being too repetitive. The title track is a disjointed bundle of ideas. The Celestials is easily the standout here

Grox 06-12-2012 10:40 AM

yea celestials is awesome

Trotskilicious 06-12-2012 10:46 AM
