Guest all_purpose_sandpaper Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 it really must have something to do with the holiday travel season. for the same reason airflight accidnets become hot news items. of course i am referring to the album, which is the story of the album, the crash of a 747. people hate this kind of coddling!

oyster Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 wtf But yes I love this album too. I think the hate is understandable, it was quite a change from the first two records, and I geuss some people thought the happy sort of feel of it was too cheesy or something. I think it's a great record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest all_purpose_sandpaper Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 the black box which is really orange wtf stop I haven't slept for 53 hours man your hurting me it is, its safety orange so its easy to spot. it contains the final messages from boc fake albums, as well as the subliminal vibrations, or photographs, found on the album covers.

Guest ezkerraldean Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 i still haven't listened to it all the way through *ducks* i haven't since the week i bought it generally under the impression that it's nothing on Geogaddi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oyster Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 i still haven't listened to it all the way through *ducks* I can respect this and I know I'm at risk of sounding like a BoC fanboy but I'd like to say that I hated this album at first and couldn't get through it, but I really pushed myself to really listen to it and now I love it.

Caretstik Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 It finally clicked a little while ago, when I got the vinyl version for some reason. I still say 'Macquarie Ridge' is the best track on the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lumpenprol Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 I think it's an excellent album, and interestingly, the only BoC I listen to anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoodie Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 i still haven't listened to it all the way through *ducks* I can respect this and I know I'm at risk of sounding like a BoC fanboy but I'd like to say that I hated this album at first and couldn't get through it, but I really pushed myself to really listen to it and now I love it. The same happened to me. I started listening to Music Has the Right on my BOC playlist while I was playing some game on the computer and then it segued right into Campfire Headphase. At first, I was like "Fuck, now I have to listen to the cheesy guitars". I had never liked the album, it sounded too... constructed? It had just put me off, I can't quite explain it. But as the album went along, I really started liking it and I really got into it. I think it was Pontiac Dream that got me hooked. I've been listening to it almost nonstop for about three days now and I dig it a lot. It's the polar opposite of Geogaddi, it sounds hopeful and dreamy rather than menacing. The albums can't be compared to each other, so I don't think there's a better one. They're all so different. I can hardly wait for their next release to see which direction they go in next.

Guest Aces Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 I have to say that this album was a huge dissapointment for me. I found it to be hollow in comparison to their early work. Needless to say that i really did listen to it a lot. It just didn't work for me. It will take a lot to beat Geogaddi in my opinion. That record really is flawless.

Guest tht! tne Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 i found "peacock tail" epiphanic and "constants are changing" is good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragon Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 "Peacock Tail" is like monkeys teaching you about the wisdom of the jungle, and how to live there freely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest themanmachine Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Probably the only album that I loved upon first listen and then grew to dislike more and more as time went on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
