Foxing - Nearer My God (August 10, 2018) Album • Page 46

I need this on my table IMMEDIATELT

 

my legit face when heard the Lich Prince bomb last night

 

I was outside weeding and the USPS truck pulled up right next to me and i got so excited because i knew what it had to be

 

Good thing you have a functional healthcare system

 

thats kind of the way i see it too though

 

So this is what the kids call it these days

 

My record has been in transit for days no updates.. if USps lost this thing there will be hell to pay

 

Going to stop by my record store during lunch to pick this up.

 

yeah, his voice is still super grating for me. sorry buds.

 

We don’t need your apologies

 

Boat I was in and I like it

 

There’s so much diverse shit they’re pulling from. Respect how different it sounds

 

So this listen was kind of passive. Second listen started while on a walk during my lunch break and got through the title track and it clicked a lot better. Every song was incredible.

I can't remember the last time a band made a mellow album like Dealer and came out swinging on the next album like this. Fantastic.

EDIT: "I wanna dreaaaaammmmmm" is auditory bliss.

 

The best vocalist in the “scene” right now for me. He uses a ton of different voices throughout the record I’d recommend at least sticking with it for one full listen.

 

Am I the only one who gets “Tidal Wave” vibes (the album) from “won’t drown”?

Mostly the chorus and in the vocals

 

This is exactly the album I've been waiting for them to make

Can't wait to see these live

 

As expected, the vocals are definitely the one part I’m struggling with a bit. I liked the vocal performances on Dealer a lot, but I do find them sometimes a little grating here. It hasn’t kept me from listening to the album so far and I’m sure it’ll grow on me somewhat over time, but it bums me out that that could be a barrier to this album being something really special for me, since the compositions themselves and production are so undeniably impressive.

 

I don't know if I would say best, but I do like his voice a lot and I find it quite inimitable.

 

most unique voice for sure, he uses a bunch of different styles which is cool.

 

Didn't care for Gameshark upon first listen but I'll see if it grows on me

 

the amount of times I've tried to imitate the "DO YOU WANT ME? DO YOU WANT ME AT ALLLL" on the title track is probably unhealthy

 

It's grown on me a lot, especially the... prechorus? The part where he's singing
"It's in the twelve steps
Against a death threat
It's like a seat belt
Against a hurricane
You're in the first class
Against a tailspin
With the dizygotic twin of god in the cockpit"

 

Frances Quinlan is in that scene and would like to have a word

 

Quinlan and Murphy (and their bands) are alone at the top.

 

Driving and listening and man, Five Cups could benefit from a trim at the end
