I've gotta admit that a few months ago I would have probably put Smile myself, but it has really grown on me in recent times, and now I wouldn't dream of it :0)

I find the trend interesting (even taking into account people who are voting for certain albums with sarcastic intent) of a slope from the first CD, and it goes down, down, down until Little Busters, Runners High, and Happy Bivouac, after which it rises again fairly rapidly.

I'm not saying anything aside from that it's interesting to note.

So yeah, Kool Spice.

Fuck. You.

Seriously.

i wish i could select 2 at once - kool spice and living field.

It's no secret that their late '90s music is the best.

Is there a difference?

Since when did everyone start liking Smile?

Sure it's got some really great songs, but overall it always felt like a really bland album to me. The quality of the songs is just so un-even. The first 4 tracks are either pretty good or awesome, but after Monster C.C the only song I really like is Thunder Whales Picnic. :\

The only song I dislike on that album is Calvero.

Repent, sinner. Calvero's lyrics own the shit out of just about anything.

Calvero is win.


You guys really are too bitter aboute everything. IT'S GETTING FUCKING RIDICULOUS. I mean, I only dislike a few songs here and there, most of which reside in the albums in between please mr. lostman and smile. All their albums have been pretty special to me. I still mostly hate the predators, though. Can we go back to bashing that?

Your sex points have risen.

Didn't actually get to vote but here we go anyway.

First off I don't really count 90's or pantomime to be true albums thier pratically singles. Even though they got some good songs, thier really just mini albums. A complete album is a full on musical expression of the artist. So even though some jazz albums might have only 3 songs those 3 songs might be 15 -18 minutes long. Kool spice isnt even 30 minutes long but its over 5 song so I let slide.

Its a obvious conclusion that thier earlier stuff is not as good as thier later work. Some bands start off with a bang thier first album being thier best. Then slowly declineing untill thier eventual artistic demise. However some bands (like the pillows) start off some what mediocore and evolve slowly or quickly into a truly great and inspirational rocking band.

Moon Gold kind of sucks, its just musically they sounded flat and unmotivating. Of course I say this with a heavy heart but its true. Thier tight as a band but something is not there.

Moon Gold is kind like floyd for me, I have to be in a very particular mood to listen to it. Its not even like I can just throw on in the early morning and not really pay attention to it as get ready. So because to me it not as accessable like the other albums ill considerd it thier worst album.

Sorry this is long.
