Anyone heard this yet - out today? It really is dreadful, production is absolute terrible - everything is fuzzy, muffled, most of the album just floats through one ear and out the other. There's also a song on Quicksand Memory EP called Medusa, which is so badly produced/arranged it beggars belief. Can't believe he fell down the slippery slope so quickly. |

i like it quite a bit. "production is absolute terrible - everything is fuzzy" haha don't you think that's how he wanted it? he made tracks out of hundreds of layers or something to get that rich sound. |

are you on crack? "goodbye" is so good for summer journeys :) |
||||||||
|

Obviously that's how he wanted it - it's fashionable to bathe your music in effects, distortion and grime these days. The problem is, he's messed it up. This aint' Slowdive. |

have u bought it or teethed the pre-production mp3s like everyone else? and if u have maybe you'd like to stop complaining as the production has been changed on the proper release |

totally agree with you, i loved strange isolated place, but this sounds like an enya album |

Excellent album. So much electronica these days lacks the warmth and humanity. I don't understand "everything is fuzzy" - it's meant to sound like that. If the music has no effect go and listen to Universal Indicator. |

well said :) i love this album too :) it hits the right spots, you know. not too "pop", not too easy, very rich and full of space. sexjourneysummerbeachmagicstarsskiesyeah. everything :) |

Ah, the Polish poet... I know him well. |

As I said it's obvious the effects are intended, but the final mix simply isn't coherent. Besides that the tunes are dour, the whole album wanders aimlessly and struggles to capture your attention - it's so linear. Still, 2 classics out of 3 aint bad. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think this album is very far from linear..if anything his first 1 was linear. Goodbye is a big gamble that paid off. Personally, I really dig the production, parts remind me of MBV Loveless, one of, if not the best records ever in that genre |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I thought this album sounded like MBV meets Enya. It's alright for the first four or five tracks but i got really bored after that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That's quite a good average, many albums I listen to often have just one or two good tracks like the new Chemical Brothers album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like this. It is good. *stamps with seal of approval* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i know what you mean, loveless is the same, awfull, fuzzy, muffled production... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
talking about "Shine" and "Stars" i think these could have been good songs but then they were botched by crap vocals. First track is just as good as anything he's done and once you get past those two vocal songs, you're pretty safe...maybe skip "Medusa" depending on what you like. this album is fine. great stuff. things like "Einfeld" are what really do it for me. |

is it just me or is the piano on 'Here Today, Gone Tomorrow' from a Global Communication track? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is my favourite enya album. i really do like it a lot but i'd be very embarrassed if i was caught listening to it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think it is a very sad album...like he is actually saying goodbye...i think the music is based around this "goodbye" concept - eh? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Still need to listen/but this. Perhaps I will d/l that track "Here Today, Gone Tomorrow" and report back if the piano is indeed from a Global Communication track. Don't be surprised given their Chapterhouse reworkings. |

I'm a total ass *buy this* P.S. U.F.OFF grammar dooshays. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the title track is the best song on the album. i regret buying this. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if it's what i'm thinking of, it may be similar to a Global Comm style thing but this is not from any GC track. |
||||||||
|

I sort of lost respect for Schnauss when me claimed to be a communist and then in the same breath slated the whole P2P thing (which, ironically, is how I discovered him and why I went on to buy Far Away Trains Passing By). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yesterday i was thinking about creating an "i was listening to enya today, and..."-thread, but i see i'm already too late. btw, schnauss? never liked his music. or that other horrible stuff that's been brought by the morr label. it's all terrible shitstained shit. and i'm not generalising either. go figure. |
