A splendid summary of what they had done up to that point.

    I would like to buy it... Silas has spoken well of it too. But it's been since 2008 since I've seen a well-stocked record store (they've all closed), so I'll have to order it online as soon as possible. Better to break the delays than to break my balls :)

    "Timothy's Monster," "Blissard," and this....what a triptych! WHAT A TRIPTYCH!

    Stunning album. In March, however, the new album "Behind the sun" will be released along with the corresponding dates in Italy.

    Oh yes, I knew there was supposed to be a new one coming out, a double if I'm not mistaken. I'm almost tempted to get it sight unseen, considering how much I enjoyed the last still life with eggplant.

Only the first album would be a 5, but there’s also the entire second one, including a gem like "Hey Jane."

    What sounds between those fjords! So cool! I would also mention the energetic "Ozone" (very mod). Even though it's less hard than the others, it's more psychedelic, with acoustic sounds and extreme improvisations, distorted noises and bare songs, sudden psych accelerations, and collages of experimental sounds.

    Holy Words, the album is a masterpiece for me; the songs are more beautiful than the other, especially Vortex Surfer. You made me want to listen to it for the umpteenth time.

An album that contains tracks like "Kill some day," "Leave it like that," "Giftland," "Watersound," and "The golden core" can only be a 5. "Trust Us" remains my favorite by Motorpsycho, but this one comes right after.

    There isn't a Motorpsycho album from the '90s that isn't beautiful; for me, this is their peak, but the choice is truly difficult.

Not one of their best from the '00s; just one of their best, period.

    Well! To each their own ;-) But it seems like I just read one of the biggest blasphemies. But I care about you, so I won't get angry XD Let’s just say it’s the least worst after Let Them Eat Cake, which for me is their last great album. But just imagining this next to "Blissard" and "Angels And Daemons At Play".....hmmm, anyway.
  • madcat

    :D Look, I find it hard to place it on the same level as Trust Us, but for the rest, alongside the others usually mentioned by Motorpsycho, I think it fits perfectly, in fact, sometimes it even surpasses them (Blissard, for example, has never blown me away, I consider this one far superior to Blissard).
  • ZannaB

    As Mad doesn't provoke anyone! I miss that, it ends up that I'm listening to it and I'm getting attached. Of course, I find it hard to imagine anything better than Blissard...
  • madcat
    6 may 14
    hehe! :D Look, Zanna, I believe that Motorpsycho have been truly underrated here since the 2000s. I also miss quite a few albums from the 2000s, but "Let Them Eat Cake," "Still Life with Eggplant," and "Behind the Sun" are really great records, and this one in particular is my favorite from their second phase, so you’re absolutely right to give it at least one listen. As for "Blissard," I consider it a 4-star album, not a 5. This one is a full 5 for me.

    Better than Blissard????? Alright... I still love you anyway ;)

They start from the depths of the abyss ("She Found Now") to eventually float in space ("Wonder 2").

    Not a 5 for me, but it's true, it's a nice album. If only all the "comin' bec" were like this.
  • madcat
    17 oct 13
    It took me quite a few listens to get into it: this time around (loveless had immediately captivated me from the second track during the first listen) it grew slowly before hitting big; in fact, beyond appearances, for me it's a very different album from loveless (while still, of course, retaining their sonic magma) and that's a good thing.
  • hjhhjij
    17 oct 13
    Yes, it is different from Loveless, indeed. Look, I liked it from the start, of course it has also grown on me over time.
  • madcat
    17 oct 13
    I actually liked it almost right away (the first one I listened to was Wonder 2 because it had been posted and I was left speechless), but overall it didn't fully resonate with me, maybe precisely because, simply and stupidly, I was expecting a loveless 2 :) which fortunately they didn't make.
  • hjhhjij
    17 oct 13
    What a stroke of luck, "Wonder 2" is the masterpiece of the album :D
  • SilasLang
    17 oct 13
    But they never left, it’s not a reunion... it’s just that Shields is as crazy as a string of camels all put together, ahahah! anyway, beautiful.
  • madcat
    17 oct 13
    Yes, but technically it's not a reunion because they never broke up, hehe how cool :)
  • SilasLang
    17 oct 13
    They started working on this around '94, then it was abandoned, picked up again, re-abandoned, and so on. "wonder 2" experiments quite a bit with certain Drum n' Bass rhythms; I wouldn't be surprised if it was conceived around the mid/late '90s, given that it was the time when many artists, even outside the electronic scene, were experimenting with jungle beats.
  • hjhhjij
    17 oct 13
    Yes, this is true, an album that Shields worked on when the hell it suited him for twenty years and more. And it’s not a reunion but a return (comeback, I said) since they officially vanished from the scene, without splitting up, in 1991, damn it :)

    Yes, indeed I think good Kevin is quite annoyed to have caught "the BW syndrome" ahhahahaha.
  • madcat
    17 oct 13
    ehhe true damn... if I think about it, 22 years for an album is something beyond anything else, I don't know how long Wilson took to put out Smile (maybe longer). Anyway, it's true, Shield in the '90s said he was working on something he referred to as "jungle."
  • SilasLang
    17 oct 13
    Ah yes, it was the years of the jungle boom (after the first illegal raves), from '94 to '98, up and down :)
  • hjhhjij
    17 oct 13
    Sure, I trust that in 1994-95 my usual activities were sucking my thumb, singing the Sunday-in theme, and my kiss is like a rock and destroying dolls. I didn't have time to follow the ups and downs of My Bloody Valentine, understand me.

    I was a bit disappointed; it’s a nice album, but after 22 years, I expected something different. I expected them to be more daring. Instead, with slight variations, they have revisited the sound from 22 years ago, tones that have been studied, inverted, and reintroduced by countless bands. In short, nothing new... for example, Belong have pushed the boundaries of shoegaze, creating an album that, for me, is superior to M V B.
  • SilasLang
    17 oct 13
    @gianluigi67 but why, in my opinion, this material dates back nearly 20 years, for the most part :)
  • madcat
    17 oct 13
    It should be listened to without thinking that it took 22 years; it's the successor to Loveless. How long it took doesn't matter to me; it could have never seen the light of day, yet here it is.
