Will be making a trip into a store on my birthday (7th Jan) and I'm going to be either getting: FSOL - Dead Cities or... Plaid - Double Figure I'm having lots of trouble deciding, although I bought the Isness recently and love it to death, so I'm on a real FSOL role at the moment! They both seem like such good albums. Can anyone help me decide? |
||||||||

|
|
It is your birthday, take both and indulge yourself. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmmm well, ok first let me say, the Isness has no relation with Dead Cities in any noticable way really... I look at it like 2 different bands... but that said, Dead Cities is just a masterpeice in my mind... and while Plaid is good, Id reccommend Dead Cities. But yeah man... if its your birthday, splurg on both! |
||||||||

|
|
all i know is that dead cities is very different from the isness (but that you already know...), and that double figure is very good (even though i prefer not for threes)! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
good night! |
||||||||
|

*Dead cities is worth it even just for the one song "Everyone In The World Is Doing Something Without Me" I showed it to my friend one time, and she burst into tears. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
although, Dead Cities is more of a summery album for me... I listened to it nonstop this past summer, and it was great. Yeah. So... yeah. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Your are obviously an FSOL fan now, so go for "Dead Cities"...Plaid can wait... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Tough....probably double figure. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dunno..Dead Cities is quite a dark album..not quite Summary by my specs..but yeah they are both excellent landmark albums...Double Figure has a more NOW sound thant Dead Cities though.. |
||||||||
|
|

|
I tend to be a sucker for artwork and inlays. Doesn't Dead Cities have like a 32-page booklet? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not all of them..there was a special edition... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
There was? I didn't know that! *rushes over to look at FSOL sites* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
IMHO, definitely Dead Cities. That album (although obviously unrelated to Isness) is sooo great, so conceptual... That's a true masterpiece. "I had killed a man. A man who looked like me." creepy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dead cities - the book is excellent btw, get it if you can :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
BOTH!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Is the artwork all CG? Sorta like Lifeforms? I love that type! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love Dead Cities, great music and great art work! you should definately get that!.. Also ISDN and Lifeforms are very good and essential for a healthy lifestyle... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't seem to like ISDN from the samples I've heard. Lifeforms is a good album, bit dated tho. Dead Cities will be great I'm sure! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Dead Cities, I'd recommend. It's the only FSOL I really get into. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well don't worry because Dead Cities is much better than ISDN! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dead cities is a beautiful album, I'd recommend it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Both. I couldn't live without Dead Cities though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love the shimmering paino piece Max from the pitiful 30secs I've heard of it! I like most of them. No, wait, I love them! |
