mewithoutYou - [untitled] e.p. & [Untitled] LP (2018) Album • Page 117

imagine watching Aarons reactions to watching some LotR lmao

 

lmao

 

"there and back again" is still a reference to "the state i am in" by belle & sebastian

 

like i guess it could be both but: probably not

 

LP version of Winter Solstice is the best, man.

The chorus has such crystal clear drums and everything sounds like heaven and I love it, k thx bye

 

I swear you could put this song on the radio and someone like my mom would go "this is enjoyable"

 

Still haven't stopped listening

 

king of spain and queen of portugal

 

I've already said this, but Sunny Day Real Estate is ALL OVER this album.

For people who haven't heard it, check out the album The Rising Tide. I know they're fans and I can hear the influence quite a bit.

 

welp, you got me beat lol

 

Are those plays the full album replays or individual songs?

 

individual song plays

 

Oh, okay. I was about to say....

I'm probably between 15 and 20 full play throughs myself!

 

shout out for diiv too

 

Ya'll are sellouts preferring the poppy & polished LP version. I'm over here supporting the original "indie" version till death.


...I actually love both for different reasons.

 

Winter LP > EP

I'm pretty surprised they kept it on the EP tbh. It's not like on the Pale Horses Appendix where the songs are basically completely new reimaginings. It's just an acoustic version. I still like it but I almost have no reason to listen to it now unless I'm listening to the EP all the way through

 

I think the lines about "machines" & "screens" sound better with the sparse instrumentation on the EP version

 

the ep version has those haunted bell sounds

 

gotta have both imo

 

those bells are so spaghetti western I love it

 

PSA: the wailing bridge solo of Matadors calls back to the bridge of Cities on the Plain

 

I cant help but wonder how staggering it would be if the EP and LP were sequenced together as one composite release with the same production

 

I’d be curious how the band would sequence all 19 songs. If they do an AMA I think that would be my question.

 

All the songs on top each other at once.

 

I've listened to a couple of songs from this and the EP and like them. Never been a fan of them before.
