I was actually listening to all the mouth albums while at work recently -- Mouth Dreams is actually better than I remember it. This one is also 7.5/10OP Suggestion: This one's a bit long for what it is but also I feel like that's part of the point, dragging out a painful emotion instead of just letting it go 7/10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

radio414 906 Posted September 16, 2021 18 hours ago, LordCowCow said: glad to see jirard completionist is doing well sonic has always had a pretty good soundtrack 7/10OP Suggestion: Mr Bruce, formerly of The Correspondents, is slowly releasing songs in anticipation of a new album, and while the first, "Race to Nowhere" took me a few listens to click with, this one was right away. Maybe that's because it's material Bruce has tread upon before (not that it doesn't need singing about)? In any case 7.5/10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still don't really mesh with but it sure is interesting enough to share 6/10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

radio414 906 Posted September 22, 2021 2 hours ago, LordCowCow said: Vocals are a bit low. It's understandable given what the song is used for, but I wonder if there's another version with a different mix somewhere? A live performance maybe? 6.5/10OP Suggestion: Sufjan Stevens does a lot of things but here he is coming back to the old standby -- mellow alt-indie rock -- without missing a beat 7/10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A good follow-up to the last suggestion 8.5/10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LordCowCow 840 Posted September 29, 2021 Edited cause was going through guilty gear themes and this one might be my favorite theme and design-wise so far so changing it to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
radio414 906 Posted September 30, 2021 17 hours ago, LordCowCow said: what does this song smell like? wait why do the opening lines have the same meter as come together by the beatles 7/10OP Suggestion: A coworker and I were discussing music today and so I pass their recommendation on to you, definitely a grungy sort of punk sound (and also the length you'd expect from those words) 7/10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This one's chorus was, while understandably so, still a bit too repetitive for me 6/10OP Suggestion: Was also recommended Queen Bee, a Japanese rock band with a queer singer and some bops in both beat and style 7.5/10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
