Lianne Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I like Clark/Chris Clark - but Totems Flare gives me a headache, and I've tried to like it many times. I think the production on that album is overrated...I read a few reviews stating how stella it sounds, but to me Totems Flare represents an album where the standard Clark criticisms DO apply. It's fine on some speakers, but compared to most other albums I have, it sounds rather horrid on headphones. But I'm sure most of you disagree. Just my two cents. (But Empty the Bones of You and Body Riddle are rather amazing! Especially Body Riddle.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(But Empty the Bones of You and Body Riddle are rather amazing! Especially Body Riddle.) wait, so you dislike how totems flare sounds but like the way body riddle sounds? Yes. Though they're both very loud, Totems Flare has loads more distortion (I know it's deliberate, but I still don't like it much) and its textures aren't nearly as interesting to my ears as Body Riddle's. Body Riddle also has more sonic details to dig into. I thought the loudness of Body Riddle was actually pretty fresh sounding, but he took it too far for me on the next two. Really, Totems Flare doesn't sound that great once you've turned it down to the level of other good sounding electronic albums when you're battling through it all on headphones. Surely they sound pretty different to you, too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chenGOD Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Totems Flare - most overrated album for a long time. Clarence Park and Body Riddles are where it's at followed by Empty the Bones of You. Lord of the Dance Rob Lee Herr Bar and if you can find it, the "guitar solo" bonus/promo track that came with Clarence Park Also this Clark is infinitely better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr12000 Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 to me Totems Flare represents an album where the standard Clark criticisms DO apply. It's fine on some speakers, but compared to most other albums I have, it sounds rather horrid on headphones. Someone finally asked Clark about the compression in an interview and he said something to the effect of "When people say it's too loud I feel like I've succeeded!"

Surely they sound pretty different to you, too? they are both very loud. i actually think body riddle sounds to crispy. i like them both but they sound like they were produced in a very similar realm. just the sounds are different. i am by no means an audiophile so you wont get a technical argument from me though. this guy seriously needs to release a new lp soon! lol, he has been releasing stuff at a crazy pace!

Candiru Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I like the compression, because tinny music is such a bummer. I want it to come out of the speakers with a BOOM. And Clark does just that. And how. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GrandPopPoplock Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Eh, I love Totems Flare . I think it's his best album . But I'd recommend listening to his albums in release date order . Clarence Park Empty The Bones Of You Body Riddle Turning Dragon Totems Flare As for the ep's...it doesn't really matter . They're all great This is from the Throttle Clarence ep . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzAbwhOeock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
