man... i just got this FSOL cd today. ( I think it came out today) and its CRAZY. Its crazy for several reasons. 1. Its soooo different from any other FSOL release. 2. The music itself is CRAZY. Theres this one song that has like, folk, rock, world, jazz, etc etc all in one song. But it WORKS. The songs are very psychadelic. There is some singing too. This cd is kinda like... what youd expect to hear back in the 60s, if they had the technology we have now. But its really good! I just dont consider it a FSOL release... its SO different. I think they should have just released it as Anamorphes Androgenous (sp?). I know they did in the UK, but released it as FSOL in usa (probably for name recognation) but yeah give it a listen! Its probably not for everone... but then again, i think alot of people would like it too! |

ok... ive been listening to this album nonstop since i got it i LOVE it its very unFSOL as i said before... but it just ROCKS so much! |

as i already stated in the topic titled "Future Sound of london's new abum" it sounds like new age world music. i can't stand all the sitar. It reminds me of somthing that the Tim Robbins character, Ian, in 'High Fidelity' would listen to. Like trendy world music. The first couple tracks are pretty good but it's all down hill from there. i feel cheated and i want my money back. |

I will say however that on a technical note, the production and sound quality is very good. so i guess i i like the sauce, just not the meat. |

|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmmm... i re-read that little articale... it seems like the new version has the misprint... and this is now the standard one? am i right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its very different from the normal FSOL stuff, just so you are warned... but still great in its own way they didnt do anything for 5-6 years cause they were trying to change thier sound, and one of them almost died of mercury poisoning from his fillings |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's the same track listing but different songs (and a typo) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

||||||||
|
|

nope! go to: http://www.futuresoundoflondon.fsnet.co.uk/ click discography, click isness, find your "true" track listing! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and the typos spell out a secret address where all kinds of crazy shit goes on, but if you've got the really cryptic address this leads to untold truths and secrets, it just goes on and on. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i haven't purchased a physical copy of the album yet, i dunno what the correct times are. i still have still ANOTHER alternate version of it on my hard drive, haven't heard the official version. but the FSOL discog is correct; it's the same track listing written on the back (with the one difference being the misspell of "loke" instead of like, unique to the US misprint) but two of the songs are in fact not what they claim to be. |

who's this "earthleakage" bloke? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
with every listen, its getting better and better what i first expected to be crap, when i first heard ABOUT it, is acctually quite amazing imo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ahhh, Future Sound of London... have most of their music burned on a data CD, but haven't got around to listening to them... too much music, too little time... :-/ This sounds good though, I'll check it out, baybee. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
