TSF rethink

[Seventh Son]

Well, and the fact that there aren't separate black clouds and silver linings "parts" to the album. 

That too.

[Gadough]

Meh. It's alright. It's my least favorite on the album and my least favorite of the AA Suite, but it isn't particularly bad. It just isn't very memorable.

[BRGM]

ppl are different, for me TSF is very memorable...especially compared to like, Voices, Scarred and other oldies, they are not very memorable for me.

[ScioPath]

fair enough

Well, and the fact that there aren't separate black clouds and silver linings "parts" to the album. 

This.  In fact, one of the points of the title is that, in different ways, most of the songs on the album have to do with both black clouds AND silver linings (with the obvious exception of AROP, which is just riffs assembled around a wikipedia article).

Call 'em like I see 'em.

[Adami]

Call 'em like I see 'em.

Point of order, Wikipedia articles usually don't rhyme. Thus, AROP is poetry of the gods.

I think I'd have to agree that AROP is the most emotionless song they've ever recorded.

[tri.ad]

That might be quite true, actually.

[BRGM]

NOOO! AROP! is a very good song! one of JPs better Solos and also one of the best keyboard solos, and that chorus is awesome! it's such an underrated song!! you hear me? UNDERRATEEEED!!!!!

[tri.ad]

Nope, the level of indifference it gets here is just about right.

[BRGM]

o_O Fox Kid

[tri.ad]

Wow, you really got me.

[ScioPath]

[BRGM]

OH come on! :O   Are u serious?

[ScioPath]

I'm never serious. Now lets see if we can steer this thread back on topic.

I'm not a fan of their newer, more metal sound. Not to say that its bad music persay, but its not what i want to hear when i play a DT CD.

[tri.ad]

Yesterday, I stumbled upon a video of DT playing a longer intro to Scarred, including a (mostly) tasty JP solo. I'd love to see them taking more shots at this atmospheric mood in a full-band treatment, but I really don't see it happening (despite the ambient part in TCOT).

Voices and Scarred are not oldies.

I would too.

:brgm:

[tri.ad]

I would be kind of a sad panda if BRGM gets his own smiley (even if it's that one) before me.

But that's how it works, I guess.

:triad: should be  but the big one.

I wouldn't worry about it too much if I were you.

Voices and Scarred are not oldies.

no? They're on DT's 3rd album and 16 years old!! that's a DT oldie

[ariich]

I agree, in DT terms Awake is definitely an old album.

I love TSF. Not the best song on the album or even in the 12 step songs (that would be TGP) but for me it's definitely a close second place.

[Global Laziness]

I think I'd have to agree that AROP is the most emotionless song they've ever recorded.

Come to think of it, I'm tempted to agree. It isn't bad per se, just empty in that respect.

[ScioPath]

per se

persay

ugh me and my per se fails...
