Re: Superblood Wolfmoon
if this is the only "spritzy punk" song I'll take it; there seem to be more angular, odd time signature things on the album too, so even if they're similar in tempo hopefully they up the ante in terms of complexity

Re: Superblood Wolfmoon
this is one of the worst, schizophrenic vocal melodies that Ed has concocted. And I’m not being hyperbolic.

Agreed. It’s like Ed smoked two packs of unfiltered cigarettes an hour before walking into the booth. Perhaps his weakest studio performance

yep yep!stip wrote:that might be the big difference. just about every song on my list above has shit lyrics. this seems pretty smartly writtenMs Harmless wrote:I tend to like this quick-fire wordiness in a lot of songs (I'm still an Alanis fan); my problem hasn't been delivery as much as embarrassing lyrics that this approach was covering up ("supersonic gonna took my soul / I caught a rabbit but the clock was slow yeah", or whatever that is); I'm not cringing through these lyrics so the delivery is fine, and (I think) delivered with more passion and humour than on BS or LBE.H.

I think there is more space in the vocal on DOTC, so I'm sure there will be more of that on the album

Re: Superblood Wolfmoon
With headphones it actually provided a lot more space (pun intended) and the vocals sound more genuine (my main issue with Can'tDeny Me). The lyrics are fine. Solid "3" for me.Dr. Van Nostrand wrote:I was pretty sure on 1 listen on phone speakers when i should have been asleep, that i liked it. About 6 times through in my car i still feel like its getting better every time through. I actually like the vocal delivery a lot, i feel like thats the main part getting stuck in my head. Of course i love 99% of PJ songs so its not unexpected that i would like this, i was one of the very few that can enjoy CDM, and think Evacuation if very goodfun is not what i hope for in the lead up to new PJ but im not upset that this one is fun
The Mike solo is at least different, I wonder if they just plan on improvising at that point live and that's why it cuts so definitively.
I'm very curious with the noises/scene at the end... if we hear someone get in a car and tune the radio dial I'm going to mail Josh Homme dirty diaper.

Re: Superblood Wolfmoon
Hmm, I'll make a quick playlist of these songs, and compare.stip wrote:i like his performance here. I think this is one if the more successful version of this song they’ve done yet (and there have been attempts. Ole, Supersonic, leatherman, hitchhiker come to mind. If you extend the ven diagram out to include your all nights, black red yellows, johnny guitars, and get rights it is a little less successful). I just wish they’d stop trying to perfect this type. It puts a ceiling on how good it could be.E.H. Ruddock wrote:It is really just the vocals that are bothering me.

Re: Superblood Wolfmoon
he does, I like the melody and the colour and the variety of intonation; Ed is enjoying himself, imo, not awkwardly inserting himself into a song he doesn't belong instip wrote:yeah this is baffling to me.

Re: Superblood Wolfmoon
at this point if you don't think he sounds good in this song, you just don't think he sounds good, and that's OK

She though she liked it on that first listen last night, i have a feeling she will listen once or twice today but then avoid it. She loves Dance, but i think she might end up disliking this one.E.H.
