the new stuff sounds nothing like boc. it's not nearly as good, but it also just sounds nothing like boc.
if you like crappy new age music, then maybe you'll like this. if you liked isdn and dead cities, you may be a bit dissapointed.

There was a couple topics about this, one that Zeus started and pne that I started and we both (Zeus and I) said that we think it's really good.
So yeah. I think it's nice.

You have to kind of look at it differently. If you look at it as 'this was made by the same two guys that pieced together Dead Cities and ISDN' well no, you're probably not going to like it.
But if you just put away the names and categories and labels, and decide whether or not the MUSIC is something you're into, you can have a more honest evaluation of the album.
It is very different than anything they've done previously.

i'm hoping they'll make another album more in line with the progressions they were making with isdn and dead cities.
i'd like something different, just not the isness.

it was years ago i bought them,and sold them,i just didnt like isdn,maybe i would change my mind now if i listened to it,dead cities was better i didnt own this one[it has been years],so what was that 2 cd album then?that was the best one i heard,ambient,a little dull though.
papua new guinea is still the best thing they`ve released imo.

I guess I havent heard "new" stuff. But I have almost all their older stuff... lots of of, tons of singles and albums. FSOL is pretty neat stuff.

you'd do well to search the word "isness" on the board for more opinions, core

Yeah, they're fuckin' oldies-goldies (would they be glad to hear it? i wonder)
dead cities absolutely kick the llamas ass!

Translations is such a good album.
Oh, and don't forget the song 'landmass' off Wipeout XL.
That might be my favorite fsol song to date.
