Emperor X - Oversleepers International (May 5, 2017) Album • Page 17

i've been playing this truly non stop, the CD is in my car so literally whenever i get there if there's nothing i really want to play it comes on.

infinitely replayable

 

I'm on a three times a day sorta diet

 

It dips slightly for me in the 2nd half. Still fantastic, but I think the first half is much stronger.

 

i agree completely. second half has my three least favorite of the album.

 

You're both crazy the second half is just as strong as the first, though I think it'd suffer from initial listens for not being as direct/accessible/anthemic as the first half. It'll def grow on you

 

it's grown on me but i still think the songs in the first half are the best, haha. god save coastal dorset and the last two are definitely my bottom three on the record

 

Yr experience might be different bc you've been listening to him a lot longer but for me, everything I've heard of his has grown on me immensely to the point where (despite having favorites) it's really hard for me to call something my least favorite or anything. I really think time will level any disparity between those songs for everyone

 

oh yeah, i think calling something in this case my "least favorite" is sort of counterproductive, it's more that the other songs are my "most favorite" haha

 

This is basically where I'm at. the most notable thing for me is that this album avoids what happened to me on WT on my first few listens where I basically just wanted to listen to Erica Western teleport, allahu Akbar and Canada day on repeat til the rest of the songs fully revealed themselves to me

 

I prefer the second half of this album by a lot

 

Blah blah blah I'm getting bored

Of bad Casey opinions

The second half is fantastic

 

i probably still like this record more than anyone else here hahahaha

 

Haha, I know, I was just having a laugh

 

WXPN session airing at 10 tonight, based on past sessions on this show it looks like it'll be posted on bandcamp too

 

wasn't the biggest fan of this on first listen

 

Finally listened to this, which I definitely should have done sooner. It's awesome. Bummed I missed the release show on Friday.

 

records are done, shipping by early next week

 

best drunk record purchase I've ever made

 

@cwhit who's the artist that does emperor x album art? I totally love the style and have been looking for a new phone background, but don't like/listen to emperor x enough so I'd feel weird having an album cover as my BG

 

i really don't know, tbh. i wouldn't be surprised if he did it but i don't know for sure.

 

i can ask him for sure next week though

 

yes yes yes

 

whoa 30,000 euros in that session is so intense

 

I can't see him on Saturday :(
