It's no double figure II. I think that thought is in the
back of your head.

i like spokes a lot. album cover is interesting, well done,
but bit too much.

though i never understood why so many people liked double
figure the most. i keep hearing it on here, thats about it
really. most people i talk to like not for threes/rest proof
more (im with them), so its interesting hearing a differnet
VIEW on it. all just opinions anyway.

but yeah, ive listened to it many times since it first came
out (before, when it leaked on napster actually)and i still
feel the same way i did then as i do now: completely let
down.

i remember hearing the tak's on warp-net back in 2001,
thinking it was going to be like this. but it wasnt 8\. if
anything i think the taks are the best tracks on the album.
they should have extended those and got rid of some others,
though i dont feel like naming any tracks.

though, i still like double figure, as i like most plaid.
its nice enough. guess i was expecting the same thing in a
row so im glad double figure was made as well. im also glad
however, that they just didnt make a double figure 2.

from pbrane, spokes sounds like a completely natural
progression to me

JivverDicker :

Nah, the design was done by tDR, but the ugliness was
perpetrated by one Elena Kopenkova. I can't seem to
find a website about any of her other stuff though.

oops... i was starting to wonder what happened to tdr.

Maybe Elena doesn't have a website because she's really the
young daughter of one of the guys who works at tDR.

I do actually like the cover. It somehow does reflect the
content of cd. What do you people think?

And i agree, it aint as good as double figure.

NO !

the cover is great, have you ever explored the world of art
?

ever heard of Jackson Pollock and others that fallowed him?

i love the cover and dig the samples, thx Phobs.

Points: 1098 Status: Lurker



yes, i know some art, and jackson pollock. And i even like a
fair bit of his work too, but i can't help it if i don't
like the cover that much. And not even a 100 artbooks would
change my opnion on that.

ah sweet. Samples even before its released!

From the quick listen I gave... these songs seem much better
then Double Figure. Just, more sophisticated...

I think ill have to pick it up!

(but yes... the artwork is alittle... over the top)

I've been listening to it every day since it was leaked and
I still don't think it's more than a 6/10, the first half
aside from Zeal is just pants really


 

offline Zeus from San Francisco (United States) on 2003-08-13 10:33 [#00819782]
Points: 14042 Status: Lurker



hmmm

thats no good...

I feel similiar about double figure... the first half is
great... but the rest, I find forgetable
