I think Bad Radio Eddie wore his influences on his sleeve, as did Ten - Binaural Eddie (when his album contributions were often highlights); it's just that he had different influences in that "good" period.Birds in Hell wrote:I don't think this is far wrong.Wendy Carlos's Twin wrote:This might be a controversial opinion, but I don't see Eddie's recent material as a devolving of his skill.
I think he always sucked at writing songs and simply lucked out and had a fruitful period in the 90's, no doubt brought on by surroundings and inspiration.
In other words, it's the norm rather than the exception. The current Eddie isn't much different from Bad Radio Eddie. All the same boring and annoying tendencies were always there.
Now he's a dad with a killer hi-fi system at home, and he's soaking up all the music of his youth again. Still wearing his influences on his sleeve; he's just come full circle.
As well as Amazon. Same price. ($40)bodysnatcher wrote:This is up for preorder at Target. Don’t pay 10c shipping.
Ah nice thanks for the heads up with Amazon. Will prob preorder through them in the off chance I move before release date. I can only imagine how bad 10c would screw up a shipping address if you moved before it mailed.emanon wrote:As well as Amazon. Same price. ($40)bodysnatcher wrote:This is up for preorder at Target.

At Target, it qualifies for the 3-for-2 promo that I mentioned in the Flag Day thread...if you're willing to chance they ship your other items before its yet-to-be-announced release.
