Song of the Moment: Future Days

[harmless]

Bold production choices?

Yeah. I think I'm imagining something like Wilco's "Reservations", but with the piano being much less front-and-center.

This is why it will never happen.

Yup

[Revolver]

I actually like the strings on this one. Good vocal melody. Gross lyrics. That piano is terrible.

[Soulfire]

Gah... fuck you, O'Brien.

I want Pearl Jam back. Not Eddie and the O'Briens.

Gah... fuck you, O'Brien.

I guess I think this song is nice enough, but it doesn't really feel earned. There's a lot of drama poured all over it, and I feel it should end a longer, more dramatic album.

without the throw away lead up tracks. I'm sure there are folks who like them but the final 4 tracks are weak and weird.

I don't think they're weak, but they don't set up the contemplative mood of the final song, so it sounds like farce instead of emotional. I mean, nothing even remotely "silly" should be anywhere near it, and LTRP is three songs away I think?

9. LTRP
10. SBM
11. YM
12. FD

Odd. Fact.

[Mike]

My hopes that it will be better than the live version came true! That's something. I like the violin quite a bit.

Odd. Fact.

I think SBM, YM and FD work well together because they're all variations on "folk / country". And in as much as the T.Rex camp-blues song sets them up, it makes sense theoretically. T.Rex were a folk band before pretty much inventing glam rock, so...

It's like a different ep stuck on the end of a promising album

*slow clap*

[Mike]

The way the guitar is kind of melting together with the violin in the "solo" is pretty cool.

I'd much rather that than having these tracks dotted around. It's like a little unplugged set at the end of a very short gig.

Yeah I like that too.

[Mike]

Eddie doing background vocals for himself and the instrumentalization in the bridge is also cool. Ah fuck it, I kind of dig this song.

I get this sort of vibe too.

Maybe this album is kind of designed to be retracked... with a few E.P arrangements possible.

I'd say that it was designed in 3 acts but the MFS>Sirens kills that. Plus I don't think LB partners well with Infallible>Pendulum>SW.
