I'm listening to Fantomas's Suspended Animation right now. I have absolutely nothing to say. My brain has been turned into jelly.

Sigz · « **Reply #180 on:** June 28, 2012, 06:42:12 PM »

Suspended Animation is fucking awesome, and their best album.

checked out some Akphaesya today after seeing them on Zantera's 'top 40 of the first half o the year' list...shall investigate further

Zantera · « **Reply #182 on:** June 29, 2012, 02:22:02 AM »

Alex is a much bigger fan of them, but I really enjoyed the album. Quite crazy.

lateralus88 · « **Reply #183 on:** June 29, 2012, 03:22:21 AM »

The new Akphaezya album is fucking fantastic. Some crazy shit, in the best way possible. Easily one of the best from this year.

Gorille85 · « **Reply #184 on:** June 29, 2012, 03:49:40 PM »

Sounds like something I'll like.

Scorpion · « **Reply #185 on:** July 02, 2012, 01:17:08 PM »

Just started listening to some stuff from this genre (PC and DSO), though you can find very little of it on Youtube, due to copyright restrictions in Germany. They're both pretty awesome.

Zantera · « **Reply #186 on:** July 02, 2012, 01:18:54 PM »

I listened to Fantomas earlier, the debut and Directors Cut. Shit is really weird, but I like.

Marc how have you not heard it? COME ON MAN WHAT THE FUCK.

Thread revival.

Yeah, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum is still awesome. I can't decide which album is my favorite. They're all so ridiculously good.

Of Natural History is your favourite. Trust me.

Ultimetalhead · « **Reply #190 on:** September 13, 2012, 04:31:43 PM »

I don't know, man. Of Natural History doesn't have 1997 or Angle of Repose on it...

lateralus88 · « **Reply #191 on:** September 13, 2012, 04:34:54 PM »

But it does have the run songs with Hymn to the Morning Star to Babydoctor.

God damn. I think I'm on a serious binge with this band. I've been watching live videos of them all day. It's impressive to me that they're able to recreate their sound so well live without any backing tracks. Hell, they don't even wear in-ear monitors.

When is that new album supposed to surface?

Zantera · « **Reply #194 on:** September 14, 2012, 01:13:18 AM »

I've really been listening loads to Dog Fashion Disco and Polkadot Cadaver lately. Adultery and Sex Offender has been blowing my mind, and I'm already obsessed about getting money so that I can get Adultery on vinyl, a mission I must complete.

I've heard good things about Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, should probably check them out.

Ultimetalhead · « **Reply #195 on:** September 14, 2012, 06:03:45 AM »

Grand Opening and Closing, post-haste. If that one's too weird, try out In Glorious Times instead. It's still weird, but in a more controlled way.

Ultimetalhead · « **Reply #196 on:** March 01, 2013, 09:43:21 PM »

Thread revival with a new Polkadot Cadaver song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKFC1KIB59U

On a related note, I just got Adultery yesterday. Listening for the first time right now and it's completely amazing.

THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU

EDIT: Wow, Private Eye is really disturbing.

Zantera · « **Reply #198 on:** March 02, 2013, 02:02:37 AM »

Adultery is one of my all time favorites. I love it.

Yes, Adultery is an extremely awesome album. The other major label releases, Committed to a Bright Future and Anarchists of Good Taste are great as well.

lateralus88 · « **Reply #200 on:** March 02, 2013, 12:04:46 PM »

Anarchists of Good Taste is their best album, if you ask me.

Ultimetalhead · « **Reply #201 on:** March 02, 2013, 12:29:25 PM »

It's great, but Adultery is way better.

lateralus88 · « **Reply #202 on:** March 02, 2013, 12:34:04 PM »

Cartoon Autopsy pretty much crushes every song from Adultery. But you know, to each his own.

Scorpion · « **Reply #203 on:** March 12, 2013, 04:04:57 PM »

To continue with the DFD discussion, I recently found Committed to a Bright Future on Spotify, and while the first few listens were very good, none of the songs stuck with me as easily as Private Eye, Moonlight City Drive, The Darkest Days, Desert Grave or The Hitchhiker did. Still, will definitly continue listening.

Also, the chorus of The Hitchhiker has to be one of the best choruses ever written. It's so damn catchy, morbid and awesome all around.

MIDNIGHT STRANGER COME ON TAKE A RIDE WITH ME

Double post/thread necro!

Just listened to Sweet Nothings for the first time.

Reaction:

Ultimetalhead · « **Reply #205 on:** August 25, 2014, 02:28:53 PM »

Yeah Sweet Nothings is a great album. Nice comeback and more than anything I'm just glad Todd's maybe going to settle down and just release stuff with DFD instead of the million other hodgepodge projects he's been involved with. I love Polkadot Cadaver and everything but honestly it's just DFD with a bit more electronics.

Scorpion · « **Reply #206 on:** August 25, 2014, 02:54:38 PM »

If I had to choose between DFD and PC, I'd go with DFD any day of the week. Yeah, I like the electronic elements of PC, but IMHO they're not worth sacrificing the gorgeous woodwinds and the like that DFD employ instead.

Also, Greta might just be my favourite DFD "ballad".

EDIT: Holy shit End of the Road just exploded my brain via concentrated awesomeness.
