Storm Corrosion (Storm Corrosion)

Some songs are so surreal that you can't even describe them; you just sit back and let the aura of it wash over you.  Storm Corrosion is one of those songs. I have owned my iMac since the beginning of 2011 and this is the most listened-to song in my iTunes since then (338 listens).  I just love it. :hat

I've never really gotten into Storm Corrosion (the band). I didn't expect them to go full out metal because of Mike's main interest at the time, but I was expecting something more appealing to me. I don't know what it is, but I just can't really conncet with the record. That said, the song isn't bad.
Must've been Kwyji sending all the wrong songs.   ;D

Good one. Not as impressive as some other songs from the same album, and the noisy section in the middle goes on for a bit too long, but I appreciate Steven's vocals on it.

I still vividly remember the first time I listened to that album. Poured a glass of fine red wine, got myself comfy and listened to the record with full attention. Great experience, I had no trouble getting into it at all.

No kidding :o

The title-track is my favorite on the album: so beautiful, yet that noise section is a real hair-raiser.

I've never thought of that as a "noise" section, like the ones on Insurgentes, which all seemed kinda jarring.  This one seemed natural and when it comes out of it and the acoustic guitar and SW's voice comes back, that is some real, real good shit.  :coolio

Just getting into this thread. I love Storm Corrosion, I wonder if they could do something similar again.
