I really adore the song generals until the chorus, which I hate.

The manufactured call and response part is pretty cringe-worthy.

I'm playing the first album now...

The aesthetics of this definitely appeal to my personal tastes.

The first album is wonderful.

I fucking love the sentiments so much that I don't care. Also I think it's knowingly cliched.

(And so is a lot of their material.)

Anything else? I can handle it if you didn't like it.

I might not though.

No, I definitely liked it. I'm gonna need to keep listening to for the next week or so to get some more concrete opinions about it, but the first listen was very enjoyable.

So you're saying I should...give it time?

Yeah, I very rarely give more than vague opinions/notions on anything after the first listen or two. I like to sit with it for a few days and several listens and let my thoughts gel.

It was a pun.

Lament · Post by **Lament** » Tue January 21, 2014 5:35 pm

I'll need more time and listens to get the puns too. But I'll get there.

Please give the record a fair chance before you let it go.

it's such a clunky melody in what is otherwise a song that feels so smoothly dirty

Yeah I don't mind that.

I just like 'You wanna fix it / Or fuck it up / Come on fix it / 'Cus it's been fuuuuuuuuuucked.' So much fun to sing.

I've scratched my head at a Stip opinion or two, but this one might make me bleed. The fact that Pete even kinda agrees has turned this today upside down for me.

I have to rethink... everything.
