I feel like I gotta re-listen to everything from Crash Love to S/T (none of them really landed for me) but Bodies was pretty damn good. Excited to hear what they've got next.
been almost a decade since their last album that did anything for me but i love everything from black sails through burials so i hope this one bucks the trend
yeah that, feed from the floor (i think thats what that song is called lol) and she speaks the language are admittedly pretty great even if i dont have any other real takers on that album. the opener is decent too
Crash Love is a very good record, but I understand why it didn’t land for a lot of fans upon release Also: Crash Love Burials Blood Bodies Blood might be higher if the production didn’t make the whole thing sound pretty hollow.
If we're just considering the last 4 albums Burials Crash Love Blood Bodies Bodies is the only one I don't consider good, even Blood I'd consider mostly good
id say bodies is more consistent but its peaks are lower. you could probably make one really good album out of the best material from both + the stuff from the missing man ep (they were cookin w that one ngl)
never really listened to this band but i listened to burials after their long podcast appearance and thought it was pretty fun
You work on some of my favorite movies AND like my favorite band? Man, what a guy. @phaynes12 agree though, sing the sorrow is their masterpiece - the albums that originally made me fall in obsessive love with the band were black sails in the sunset and art of drowning. burials is my favorite post-major label run album by far though
Doing a discography run through before their Chicago show next Friday, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say StS is still their best one.
The three and all hallows ep are such an insane run. Don’t really care for anything after but willing to be wrong
I can't recommend burials enough, minus maybe one or two tracks it's up there with sing the sorrow to me. Also the missing man EP is stellar. Blood album has maybe 4-5 killer tracks, but besides that is just the afi playbook. But honestly if you want to be proven wrong, just go see them. Still one of the greatest live bands on the planet. From 98-04 imo they were the literal greatest live band going.
