Just bought "Gorgeous" by 808 State in the record shop I went to because I thought 808 State were good (and hard to find). Boy, was i wrong. This is the worst damn CD I've ever heard in my life. I'm going to return and then pick up either Feed Me Weird Things or Chiastic Slide. |

It is over 10 years old what were you expecting? |

Chiastic slide is an awesome CD go get that. |
||||||||
|
|

Yeah, i will Asche. |

*hopes they will give me a swap* |

Go get their greatest hit CD or grab Pacific State. It's all about 'Pacific' and all it's other versions. Damn those songs rule, speaking of which I happen to be listening to Pacific 202 as I type. Go d/l it and see what you think. |

i preferred Cubik to Pacific. |
||||||||
|

|
|
Cubix is good, but I don't know what it is, Pacific just sounds sooo good. |
||||||||
|

This album is just so poppy and corny I feel embarrassed for buying it. What do you say when you want to swap a CD? |

You say "Yo reprezent dat money up in here, bitches, this be a stickup, motherfucker" |

|
ok! |

Probably should've gotten "90" or the "808:88:98" compilation, but 808 state is really more dance/pop oriented... Chiastic Slide...an underrated album if there ever was one... |
||||||||
|

|
cubik, firecracker, pacific... these are in NO way crap. pacific is BRILLIANT! however chiastic slide is far superior |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, Chiastic Slide is a million times superior. I'm on Track 3 right now, and ruddy well loving it, having hearing it for the first time. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Wait until you hear Cichli... |

whatever you do dont buy Feed me weird things....i cant see how any album can be much worse |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

they are poor with the exception of new build which pisses on most stuff i hear which is new, let yourself go which is utterly brilliant (thanx to gerald simpson), and 90 which is the only good thing graham massey ever managed (sadly). all downhill from there. by the way rephlex, when are we gonna hear this unreleased 808 state stuff? you're not gonna make me wait till november are you? :) |
||||||||

wtf? its great. how can an album NOT be any worse? you think billy ray cyrus is good then, i take it?? |
||||||||
|

|||||||||

I was listening to 808 state vs. MC Tunes - "splitting the atom" last night. Great little madchester number. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I used to have the first 808 state album - I loved it. Like Lee said, listen to it in context to when it came out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wrong album to buy. definately. they were awesome back when newbuild and quadrastate came out. mostly thanks to gerald as blake up there has pointed out. if you think the remix on men1 is good then maybe you shoudl check the early 808. avoid anything after 90. |
||||||||

apart from cubik and in yer face. they sounded ace in 1992 in a dingy club. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I thought ex:el was a sweet album too. |
||||||||
|

"It is over 10 years old what were you expecting?" whats that supposed to mean??? |

It was supposed to mean that electronic music 10 years ago was a very different beast to what it is today. Most of the stuff at the time was rave orientated which was then watered down by commercial acts, which leads to a lot of it sounding poppy and cheesy now. I don't mean all music ages like that but I know to someone who has just decided to listen to 808, some of it will sound horrendously dated. |
