Ken Andrews! [Failure / ON / Year of the Rabbit / Solo]

[j's brain]

So... anyone here a fan? He just released the Digital Noise Academy album that seems like it has been forever in the making. I haven't heard it yet but I plan on picking it up. The single from FOUR years ago is pretty good though...

HERE since I can't figure out how to embed the video...

I am a fan. I would love to see him reunite Failure one of these days. Even if he doesn't, he puts on a great live show.

Hell yes.

He has perfected the "space rock" sound I think... I'm not even sure if that is what you call it but his music has such a unique sound to me - it can be loud with a hint of electronica and catchy as hell. I don't know...

Nearly two years to the day of the last post here, streaming the new album:

Also got a ticket to see the Failure/HUM show at the 930 club in DC. Dreams do come true!

Oh man, I didn't listen to much because I didn't want to spoil it, but what I heard sounded really damn good. I'm excited.

I like Failure and Year of the Rabbit.

will get to the new failure album eventually..

[Dev]

wait a minute. I can see houses is an old song....

Hot Traveller is bad.

all of this comeback albums really showcase why Josh Homme is a genius for not go back and ruining Kyuss's legacy. More people need to apply this logic.

Legacy shmegacy.

Half-way through my first listen of the new album, and right now I'd say it's probably Failure's best record.

"Fair Light Era" is awesome.

[LoathedVermin72]

Man, this has got to be the best '90s comeback album of the bunch. Loving it.

[andynomore]

It took about three or four listens until it clicked for me. I definitely don't think it gets near Fantastic Planet, but that's a tall order anyway. Counterfeit Sky through Fair Light Era is the peak of the album for me. I also like the originally released Focus more than this version.

I saw Year of the Rabbit open for A Perfect Circle like 12 years ago. They were great!

[LoathedVermin72]

I'm listening to the Year of the Rabbit album right now (for the first time). This is...very polished and poppy. I think the production is really hurting it. Though, in any case, the songwriting seems boring.

Finally listening to the "new" Failure album. Pretty good! Definitely better than I thought it would be.

[Leatherhead]

Love Failure.

[Jammer XCI]

They had a new album come out last month.

Well, it was 4 EP's released over the course of the year.

It was pretty good, not as good as The Heart is A Monster, let alone Fantastic Planet, but still solid.

Just saw Failure at the Warsaw in Brooklyn last week. Holy crap what a show. Seriously might have been the best sounding show I've ever been to.

I think they are getting better and better. The two comeback albums have really grown on me and the songs I heard live were freaking great.

Here's a review of the show: https://consequenceofsound.net/2019/04/ ... rsaw-3-29/
