Cloud Nothings - Life Without Sound (January 27, 2017) Album • Page 12

Just gave Attack On Memory my first listen yesterday and thought it was pretty good. Didn't make as large of a first impression on me as Here And Nowhere Else and Life Without Sound did, but I can see it growing on me. Wasted Days is great.

As for this album, I've given it my second listen and I love it. Standouts so far are Up To The Surface, Darkened Rings, and Realize My Fate. Up To The Surface is such a perfect song

 

'enter entirely' is constantly stuck in my head

 

I keep wanting to point to a stretch of this album that I think is the strongest but really the whole thing, top to bottom, is excellent.

 

this setlists from these shows are so good, my lord. not that they could have made a bad one but even the order is top tier

 

Yeah I wouldn't have minded a cut or two from S/T but they did pretty much any song I could ask for

 

also sight unseen is a top tier track along with modern act. the vocal melody is so spectacular

 

eh they aren't the same band as they were from that era, they haven't done any songs from there in a looooong time

 

Do they usually just play AOM-onward stuff live?

 

yeah, the stuff before that record wasn't written as a full band, basically a dylan solo project before then

 

Here's a bad picture I took at the Boston show

 

Been looking forward to this show since December. Saw that it sold out so definitely going to be a better turnout than the last time I saw them

 

Still kicking myself for missing them in October

 

Oh shit we were very much near each other. I was directly in front of the other guitarist

 

Always kicking myself for missing them in a hole in the wall in central Florida after they released Attack on Memory.

 

I am dead right now holy shit most fun show in a long time

 

RIP cwhit

 

thanks buddy you are invited to the funeral

 

are Cloud Nothings playing at it? I hope so

 

This is their best album and it's not even close.

 

"Not close" is an exaggeration to the biggest degree

 

Or a different opinion lol

 

I mean, I love this album and you are probably right, but their last record is extraordinary too and I wouldn't fault anyone for saying it is the better album.

 

Were I decreeing this as ruler of the land, sure. In my opinion? Nope.

 

Their drummer is something else.

 

I love the end of Strange Year. Also Sight Unseen has the most Here and Nowhere Else vibes, and I'm all about it.
