atypic Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 I had a really lovely birthday this past Sunday, listening through this album twice in a row, drinking tea, and re-reading the Alan Moore run of Swamp Thing comics. The album is such a masterpiece. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drillkicker Posted Saturday at 01:14 PM Share Posted Saturday at 01:14 PM when i was a teenager i wanted a casette copy of this album so bad that i made my own bootleg copy and printed out a scan of the j-card from the first edition. now, as an adult, i dont really care. great album but ive listened to it so many times that its greatness has worn off for me. it doesnt sound much more special than traffic or muffled neighborhood dogs barking these days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, I was in high school when picked up SAW2 in 95 and it was my main sleeping record. I would put the headphones of my Discman under my pillow (wtf, spell-check is red-lining that) and listen to it muffled/quietly through my pillow every night. Side note, when I was younger and I was very tired, sometimes I used to close my eyes and my body would feel like it was spinning and flipping around, head over heels in a bizarrely euphoric way (completely sober). I haven’t felt that feeling in many years but was curious if anyone else ever felt that way. ? Anyway, thinking of listening to SAW2 in high school makes me miss that feeling.

Friendly Stranger Posted Sunday at 03:48 PM Share Posted Sunday at 03:48 PM Finally got my copy delivered! It sounds amazing, worth the wait. One of the first “electronic” albums I ever owned in my early teenage years, so happy as a middle 40s dad to be listening to this on a nice system. Just in time for the shorter fall/winter days, this will be a fireplace listen on the regular. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobra Posted Sunday at 05:05 PM Share Posted Sunday at 05:05 PM Cancelled my online order and brought LP from local record store which felt better buying this album from them so feel double good now that I’ve listened to it today all the way through! Rhubarb Orc.19.53 Rev is a lovely fitting for end of this record imo! Even more my favourite album now 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cern Posted Sunday at 05:23 PM Share Posted Sunday at 05:23 PM i have been having it on loop last week every time when I go to bed. Just reading a book, have little bit light on, drink some tea and drift away into dream lands. The best is when it starts to rain outside. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, thinking of listening to SAW2 in high school makes me miss that feeling. i used to listen to robert rich and sleep research facility while sleeping during high school. it gave me crazy dreams. i also liked the feeling of sleep deprivation back then. i intentionally gave myself an irregular sleep schedule and had my alarm set to wriggle like a fucking eel by whitehouse, connected to my guitar amplifier with the gain way up on the far side of my bedroom to force me out of bed with no time to mentally wake up. the result was that id spend the first couple hours of school hallucinating in a dreamlike state. saw ii was my favorite album to listen to while experiencing that. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcbpete Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago Managed to snag a great offer on an upgrade to RX11 yesterday, was curious to hear the improvement in the vocal isolation so offered it a challenge with track 12. Needed to manually re-pitch bits of the track 'by ear' as the speed was all over the place, and the dynamic reverb and filtering means it'll be impossible to get it much clearer but I thought you'd be interested in the conversation in slightly better clarity: Your browser does not support the HTML5 audio tag https://ilovecubus.co.uk/pete/sawII_tr12_denoise.mp3 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very interesting. Maybe it can be made on some other tracks as well? Really great stuff to hear this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
