"ISDN is their most... percussiv"
Joke of the day! FSOL best album is "accelerator", since then they haven?t made anything worth listening to (though I have the limited ISDN and Lifeforms, but they cant really match accelerator...)

In A State of Permanent Abyss is the little blippy track at the end of Quagmire... it's nice, but nothing special I don't think.
Avart - meh. Accelerator's nice, but doesn't match up to the supremity of Lifeforms and Dead Cities. I prefer it to ISDN, though.

I agree. Lifeforms needs to be listened in it's entirety.

Don't EVER use the "t" word when referring to FSOL. What the hell are you talking about? If you're going to liken it to mainstream, please use the word techno or ambient at least.

i wonder if there's anything simple in FSOL at all. compare the melodies in antique toy, her face forms etc. i'm not a fan-atic of FSOL but i say THEY KICK ASS. they're able to use standard, used and [probably] boring instruments in a new and unique way [-> antique toy again] - this makes them great for me. innovation, imagination, vision of Cobain combined with [sound engineering] education and maths of Dougan - GREAT thing.
guys, FSOL's Dead Cities is already a classic. stop those blasphemous discussions ;) i wonder what's "mellow hippo" [their latest release ?] like - haven't heard it yet.
my favourite sample: a child [?] saying MAKE ME BELIEVE I'M NOT GOING TO DIE
c l a s s i c thing, amen

song transitions - it's a similar idea to plaid's : mixing small tracks/transitions with big tracks. that's a good solution when you feel you might spoil a good melody/idea making a track/song out of it - sometimes you just make a good, intense, pretty-sounding 1 minute track instead of a boring 3-4 minutes long loop. experienced it ? i have :)

The new FSOL stuff is COMPLETELY different to Dead Cities (it is, in fact, Amorphous Androgynous, not FSOL). Dunno where there are samples of Mello Hippo at the moment online, except on the Disenchanted FTP - there's a live version of Mello Hippo in the 2004 Arvika Live folder.
Oh, and there are samples of The Isness on futuresoundoflondon.com if you go into the Amorphous Androgynous section. :)

hmm, i received Dead Cities today...
i'm a bit deceived - i already had We Have Explosive and My Kingdom EPs, as well as Lifeforms, and Dead Cities is just more of the same.... i would probably have found it excellent if it was my first FSOL album.

More of the same? But but but. Everyone In The World Is Doing Something Without Me! Max! Quagmire! Vit Drowning! They don't sound like other FSOL tracks.
Get The Isness. That isn't more of the same. :P

Good old Dead Cities - I like the fact that it isn't compressed to death. There are actual honest to "Bob" dynamics!

Heheh, fair enough. I've just always found all of their records really different... although the WHE and My Kingdom EPs are from the same sessions, so I get where you're coming from there.
Dead Cities is worth every penny for 'Glass' alone, anyway. Track 10. Listen to it on repeat until your ears bleed honey.

Noticed recently that the We Have Explosive single has 9 different versions on it, some of which are quite different. I bought it yonks ago because it was $1, but never actually bothered to look at it. Discogs tells me that loads of their singles are like this, yay lots of bonus FSLOL listening experiences
