Rpeg Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 I'm glad you guys are enjoying it. I can't get into it at all. The first track builds excitement brilliantly, but after that it falls entirely flat for me. I'm on a different Clark wavelength from the consensus, because I loved Iradelphic and still listen to it. "Clark" is the first album of his I think is boring. still eager to see where he goes after this. just not feeling this direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ifeelspace Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Quality album. Only tracks I don't really like are Sodium Trimmers and Silvered Iris. Rest is peachy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YELLOW Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Was there a Japanese bonus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perezvon Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Yes, it's called "Treat" (lol) and is 3:38 long. Has anyone here ordered the japanese edition ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest skytree Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 it seems a lot of the negative was off and building a bit of momentum before the album was even released : P Yup. There always seems to be a load of pissy, whiney, whinging comments here on watmm. It's the territory. Let 'em get on with it and (try to) ignore 'em. In my experience this probably means I should check the album out...always felt like Clark still had it personally. Sometimes great artists wander off for a bit to find new things, some of which we don't like right away, but are necessary stepping stones for future developments, and often merit appreciation if we listen without expectation. My two cents! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest trananhhung Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 It's much better than what I thought. The last track even if lovely sounds too much like Manual. Still, tracks don't sound fully realised. They're satelites of something bigger which is the album itself. It works as an album not on a track by track basis. Oh and fuck clio for trolling on Syro.

Guest trananhhung Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Favourite tracks are Strenght, Snowbird and Everlane. Hum, Hey Clark, what about an hour long ambient track sounding like the 3 pieces I just mentioned? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perezvon Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 My tune... ;_; (not as good recording but it's slightly different from the other recording) ;_; I saw him on twitter talk about playing new stuff at this show. Don't know if he meant the album tracks he hasn't played yet or proper new stuff. Unfurla sounds awesome live! Finally got the LP. Classy! post pics! mine isn't here yet... Don't have a camera unfortunately, not even a smartphone :/ This pretty mich sums it up really, only I have CD. I like how you can change Clark's face with the cardboard pics. Should try with one of a wheelchair Also it comes with a simple yet cool sticker. And for people who've been asking the question on this thread, this album has been mastered by Guy Davie. Same guy who mastered Feast/Beast and Superscope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest trananhhung Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 My favourite track at the moment is Snowbird and I dont think that will change. There's something magical about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Member Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 This is a solid album, There's a distance in you is my favourite track by far after first listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest trananhhung Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Everlane... I take it all back, Clark. Sorry for being rude before. Thank you for delivering. This is the logical evolution of the Turning Dragon sound. You were lost after that album. But my door is open again. You can leave the underwear on the chair. Everlane...
