Comforting Sounds

COMFORTING SOUNDS

FUCKING THIS

Just listened to Frengers, posted how I felt in the 'what full length album did you just listen to' thread.

Just did the second half of Comforting Sounds on Audiosurf.

HOLY SHIT

ClairvoyantCat · « **Reply #108 on:** April 18, 2011, 11:26:48 AM »

Wherever should have made it to Frengers. I love the hell out of the Frengers outtake version of that song.

Tsin Tsi, too. That song is really fun.

look at you mr mew bside genius

skydivingninja · « **Reply #110 on:** April 18, 2011, 12:11:44 PM »

Nah, they're both from the debut. Haven't heard the Frengers outtakes versions of those songs though. Stupid Japanese bonus tracks...

If there's any Triumph song that should've made Frengers and didn't, my vote would have to go to "Panda".

Mew are so ridiculous with their B-sides. There are SO many of them, and half of them are only available on like promo 10" vinyl or something. I'm making every effort to track them all down, but I'm sure I'm still missing a couple...

Oh, definitely, that one's great.

I was only speaking of the ones that had actually been rerecorded for Frengers.

...unless Panda has been rerecorded as well. I don't know about that one.

ZeppelinDT · « **Reply #113 on:** April 18, 2011, 01:45:49 PM »

Oh, yeah... I don't actually know which ones were/weren't recorded for Frengers. Didn't realize that was the context. My bad.

Ryzee · « **Reply #114 on:** April 26, 2011, 05:07:25 PM »

Sup guys. Just wanted to chime in to say I got Frengers last week and have been pretty much spinning it non stop. "Am I Wry? No" is a standout so far but every track is awesome, and I'm a sucker for high-range singing so I've got nothing but love for the vocals!

skydivingninja · « **Reply #115 on:** April 26, 2011, 09:32:29 PM »

"Am I Wry, No?" is fantastic. But so is every other track on the album. Wait till those really click for ya.

Quadrochosis · « **Reply #119 on:** April 29, 2011, 06:13:32 AM »

It's funny how on HTWIWM it's completely audible as "boat" but on Frengers he can't say it right.

skydivingninja · « **Reply #120 on:** April 29, 2011, 10:07:51 AM »

I thought it was "bed" for the longest time.

Me too. Wasn't until I saw the video that it finally made sense.

faemir · « **Reply #122 on:** June 15, 2011, 02:28:27 PM »

And the Glass Handed Kites has grown on me considerably this playthough (on track 10 atm). Not sure why, possibly because Mew sound awesome on these headphones, but every song is just jumping out to me as much better than before.

edit: interesting, it seems to have the best mix of their three main albums too.

ZeppelinDT · « **Reply #123 on:** June 15, 2011, 03:05:11 PM »

There's some great stuff on there.

I especially like "White Lips Kissed". The vocals are so killer on that one - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZTvb1C-ifQ

zxlkho · « **Reply #124 on:** June 15, 2011, 03:12:32 PM »

Oh hey, so that Mew band is pretty good.

faemir · « **Reply #125 on:** June 15, 2011, 03:27:50 PM »

I really want to see them live, they seem pretty great from the videos. Especially Jonas.

ALSO I WANT A NEW ALBUM (I guess I should get their first two)

ZeppelinDT · « **Reply #126 on:** June 15, 2011, 03:42:22 PM »

They're beyond pretty great. They're like... cosmically fantastic. The ONLY negative about seeing them live was that the place was packed with too many hipsters who were obviously there more for hipster cred than for the music. One guy who was in front of me literally spent almost the entire show trying to hit on these Danish girls who were there to see the band, until somebody finally told him to shut the fuck up. It was fairly upsetting how many people were just talking through the music all night.

zxlkho · « **Reply #127 on:** June 15, 2011, 03:43:56 PM »

Frengers is in my top 5 of all time.

Were they playing at the Williamsburg Waterfront?

ZeppelinDT · « **Reply #129 on:** June 16, 2011, 10:06:54 AM »

Nah... they're nowhere near big enough for that place. Webster Hall.

skydivingninja · « **Reply #130 on:** June 16, 2011, 10:08:20 AM »

I hope they come down a bit southward next time they feel like touring over here. I think seeing them live would make my life.

Zantera · « **Reply #131 on:** January 17, 2012, 12:28:16 PM »

Bump.

Decided to check out Frengers a few days ago because Ryan and Zack has talked about it quite a lot over the last year, I even bought it fairly cheap at the store a couple of months ago, but never got around to checking it out back then.
Anyhow, been spinning the album for the last days and it is beyond amazing.

Comforting Sounds might be one of the most epic songs ever, and the whole album is just very catchy and fantastic from start to finish. I really hope the rest of their stuff is as good!

skydivingninja · « **Reply #132 on:** January 17, 2012, 12:48:40 PM »

Goddamn it Zantera why would you not mention me? Just because I don't go overboard with my love of some albums like BON IVER BON IVER BON IVER BON IVER...

j/k. But you should be ashamed for waiting this long to check out that masterpiece of an album.

ZBomber · « **Reply #133 on:** January 17, 2012, 01:09:38 PM »

I also finally got Frengers on CD recently, although Zack already showed me it when I went to his house half a year ago. And it is indeed pretty coolio

faemir · « **Reply #134 on:** January 17, 2012, 01:35:09 PM »

You guys are so late.

Frengers is their strongest, but it's also 2+ albums worth of work then super polished into a third album, so isn't really fair. It certainly not massively ahead of their latest two albums too, which are equally worth getting hold of.

Zantera · « **Reply #135 on:** January 17, 2012, 01:36:57 PM »

Well Matt, in all seriousness I know you and a few others have been gimping it a lot as well, so I wouldn't say that it's only because of Zack and Ryan doing their overhyping-thing.
I've been meaning to check it out for a while, now just felt like the perfect time, and it was.

Jirpo · « **Reply #136 on:** January 17, 2012, 06:52:05 PM »

Yep I checked it out a few weeks ago, its awesome!

Zantera · « **Reply #137 on:** February 03, 2012, 01:43:19 AM »

I've been checking out No More Stories now, and wow... I might even like it more then Frengers.
Amazing album, and not a single "bad" song on it, as awesome as Frengers is, I think No More Stories might be stronger as an album, though Frengers still has a couple of individual songs which makes it pretty rad.

Still, this band!

I've also ordered And the Glass Handed Kites, excited about that one too.

skydivingninja · « **Reply #138 on:** February 03, 2012, 07:56:12 AM »

Glass Handed Kites is pretty rad. Its more like NMS than Frengers is. It also has "The Zookeeper's Boy" <3 <3 <3 <3

ZeppelinDT · « **Reply #139 on:** February 03, 2012, 09:25:06 AM »

And White Lips Kissed! <3
