Blir Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Really not sure about this release. I think I should of saved my money. why did you buy it if you didn't like it? LOL at the values of people these days. I'm as guilty of it as anyone, but I remember when I was young and I bought an album by a band I liked not knowing what the songs were and being delighted/disappointed by the contents. The good ol days etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweepstakes Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Really not sure about this release. I think I should of saved my money. why did you buy it if you didn't like it? because it's fucking Gescom and they haven't put out a shitty release until, apparently, just now. they had been a solid, reliable brand for 17 years. LOL at the values of people these days. I'm as guilty of it as anyone, but I remember when I was young and I bought an album by a band I liked not knowing what the songs were and being delighted/disappointed by the contents. The good ol days etc. kids these days, eh? I'm probably older (28) than you. and I've spent thousands of dollars on CDs and records, mostly sight unseen/sound unheard, and there's a good chunk of shit that in retrospect I would rather not have purchased. at this point I would just rather save my money for good records, especially if it means supporting local business. anyway, I'm still going to give it a chance but that Seventh Ass Douche track is so horrible that I have very low expectations at this point.

beerwolf Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 I bought it the second I spied it Sirch I don't think there was even any samples on-line when I ordered. Like I said in Gescom I trust. Maybe it will grow on me.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sirch Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 yeah, hope so. nevermind, tho. even if it doesn't, keep it nice and sell it in 5-10 years, innit ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbpete Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 The great thing with a Gescom release is that I never have any idea what'll sound like. I mean Keynell vs. Minidisc vs. ISS:SA are pretty much worlds apart (A1-D1 was somewhat a continuation of the style of ISS:SA though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweepstakes Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 but this isn't a shitty release!! lol. your ears must be shit. ;) Maybe so :P I haven't listened the whole thing yet, just that one horrible track and part of another. And maybe that first track will grow on me. "Snackwitch" probably sounded pretty dumb the first time I heard it. just 'fyi', i'm in my 30's now. but not a Dad, yet, tf. I didn't mean to pull rank, it's so dumb to do so regardless and age is probably the most boneheaded way to do it. I just take exception to being the target of "kids these days"-type comments. edit: in ye good olde days you couldn't always check something out first before you bought it, unless 1 of your mates had it or you heard it on the radio or in a mix, etc. so you went on instinct/gut/past releases/recommendations, etc. but these days you can check most things out before you buy. so there's no excuses really for buying something you think is shit and then complaining about having bought it, imho. Like beerwolf I preordered it before hearing it, because it was Gescom, and Gescom has never been shit. I'm hoping this hasn't changed. The great thing with a Gescom release is that I never have any idea what'll sound like. I mean Keynell vs. Minidisc vs. ISS:SA are pretty much worlds apart (A1-D1 was somewhat a continuation of the style of ISS:SA though). Yup, and I've loved all of it (although I disagree about A1-D1 continuing ISS:SA, the latter felt like Oizo-esque advanced cut-ups where ISS:SA was a lot more synthetic and sort of lo-fi) which is why I'm so unpleasantly surprised at what I'm hearing.

Sirch should know better he's in his 30's. haha. but only buy a few years! there's people older than me on this board who're much more immature. anyway, as i get older i'm sure i'll feel the want/need to argue more, as i become more like one of those angry old farts on that tv program, 'grumpy old men', or what ever it's called. quite looking forward to it! but for tonight, i really can't be arsed. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RandySicko Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 I listened to the songs again and I have to say that this release sounds utterly terrible to me. V Take Fastroll is tolerable ..but the rest are repetitive, corny hip hop beats with cheesy effects added in over the songs to break them up now and then. Quite boring actually. And even though the music I listen to isn't geared towards pleasing the ears of strangers, I would actually be embarrassed playing this stuff in front of other people. I don't mind if other bands evolve with the times .. but Gescom is the only group I want staying Gescom. which to my ears, is still: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11JuzgWxvC8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oscillik Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 so Gescom to you is a track that was remixed by someone else? ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
