Good Bye Present is damn soothing.

Another example of the B-side kicking the A-side's ass.
It's very 60's and it sounds like Spitz, but don't tell Sawao that.

Goodbye Present was really mellow and didn't really have any strong impact. It was a  to me

Well, I think this single is a success.

 Re: [2011.06.08] Comic Sonic - New Single
Damn this single to hell. It was incredibly disappointing and just plain BORING. It makes me sad that when someone asked me how I liked Comic Sonic, I COULD NOT remember what it sounded like. The video reminded me too much of Electric Surfin Go Go by Polysics and I'm just mad. They keep going back and forth between plain and kinda good, and it's going to give me a heart attack.
Maybe the lyrics will make me feel better, and maybe another 5 or 6 listens will as well. For now it gets a 5.5/6 out of 10 on the Jazzy scale. Hopefully once I get used to the songs, they grow on me. I don't like talking smack about my favorite band. They need stronger songs, not catchier. Catchy songs capture you for a bit with an "Oh, that's nice~", but strong songs own your balls.

 Re: [2011.06.08] Comic Sonic - New Single
The last good song by them would have to be sad fad love. I really liked that one. It was a b-side as well. Beyond the moon was also an amazing song. Not many other songs interest me. Horn again is their new album right? I can't even remember ever WANTING to listen to that album again. I probably should give it another listen, but at the moment it's not a huge WANT.

 Re: [2011.06.08] Comic Sonic - New Single
After giving both songs several listens, I've come to conclusion that this single is OK. Once again, not great or bad, but just all right. I'm really liking the chorus on Cosmic Sonic, it's really upbeat. Honestly though, I feel this could've fared better if released under The Predators. Like, I could see this being one of the best Predators songs, but being released by the pillows... it's just not all that. Good Bye Present ain't half bad. I might like it just a bit better than the A-side. Anyways, the video was pretty awesome, definitely ranks up there.

Has anyone else noticed this pattern?
Your hear a new song/single is coming out... You talk about what it might sound like and if it will be any better than previous songs... It gets leaked/uploaded by a user... Most are pleasantly surprised but never very satisfied... You don't listen to it for weeks...

Maybe Sawao got confused and everything is just the pillows to him now [quote="Brye916"]Has anyone else noticed this pattern? Your hear a new song/single is coming out...

That's what a steady stream of mediocre releases will do.
