They're both pretty good. Not really what I was expecting after Billy found his magical stolen guitar and said he felt imbued by it's powers again. Apparently it didn't actually inspire him to play guitar at all. I don't see the point of bringing Jimmy back to play the role of sentient drum machine either.

Dorian: terrible
Adore: At least it was something, and others have mentioned, had a varied sonic landscape. It was pretty shocking when it came out, but I listened to it the whole summer of '98.

Shouldnt you play to your strength?
Why is jimmy there? Get a drum machine instead.
James? Absent as well.
Reviews are overall negative, just the youtube bots still jerk off

Edit: the chorus or post-chorus or whatever of Feelalol ("What I've sung I split in half, Now it's always...") is one of the best things he's done since 2000.
Feelalo starts really promisingly, and then doesn't go anywhere and has these really awkward moments. One thing about Cyr is I don't think it has anything where you're like wow I wish this wasn't in here. It's not very ambitious but it doesn't really fuck up what it's trying to do, which is to be a catchy dance song.

I did listen to Ma Belle for the first time in years, what a great track. 13 years ago.

Maybe I should stop blaming Billy for trying new stuff, it's been 20 years since Machina, god.
And the riff is basically just Zoom reworked. It's like he excavated all these good riffs and didn't know wtf to do with them. Same for Feelalo like you said. Really really good 1 seconds or so

That being said, its hard not to be bummed out that this is what was released. It may be silly but I was really hoping we would get a more recognizable SP with James back. These songs are okay, but at the same time I hear Ginger's new song and I like it right away. I actually want to hear it on repeat, its actually entertaining. Billy seems like he's always trying to prove a point with his new music, and whatever reason he seems to not want to be entertaining.
Yeah I'm still not sure how the fuck we got these songs out of a band consisting of 3 guitarists, all very proficient in their own unique styles. I can't see James being like hey let's make dance music the kids love it.

Billy doesnt give a shit about 3 guitarists. He is into synths now.
James doesnt contribute anything, maybe he isnt allowed to.
It is a bolly oneman show and he dictates.

When do you guys understand that billy is not capable of writing good songs/ albums anymore.
Besides...all post 2000 albums had tons of guitars in them, but prople mocked about singing, production and the song writing.

I dont like his polished and stiff way of production too.

18 dongs öeft andin 5 days next countdown. Ifthere will bea next single it is to hope that the direction of the sing is a completely a different one.
I have no desire to hear cyr or col again. So uninspired mediocre shit

So what is the Colour of Love?

I’d say it’s green like... A Forest
