Heather_Small Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 Ace but it took one or two listenings to get into it but i'm lovin' it now!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skacel Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 only listened properly to the first 6 tracks and they are some of the best songs biffy have ever written. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laxton's Superb Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 the current single is appalling, despite my not having heard the album, i shall opt for a resounding.....not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willum Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 You'd better listen to the album then Personally I like My Recovery Injection, but each to thier own and all that.I am liking the album muchly, got Jaggy Snake on at the mo...Wave Upon Wave Upon Wave and Somekind of Wizard would be my favorites though, but Strung To Your Ribcage has been on my CD player a lot today...

torn Posted October 9, 2004 Report Share Posted October 9, 2004 I'm loving it, pretty much the first 9 or so tracks are awesome, the last two i amn't so keen on.Like josef k i thought this was going to be crap based on G&T and MRI singles, but, i dunno, i actually love them on the album. Maybe just hearing them in their full context or something like that.Not to mention 'the atrocity' and 'some kind of wizard' which are just fantasticgeared up for the gig now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted October 10, 2004 Report Share Posted October 10, 2004 'strung to your ribcage', 'only one word comes to mind', 'the atrocity', and 'pause it and turn it up' are all absolutely fantastic. the hidden track is um...weird and interesting....but on the whole -fucking ace!

Rob Posted October 10, 2004 Report Share Posted October 10, 2004 'wave upon wave upon wave' is great. hope they play that live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rune Posted October 10, 2004 Report Share Posted October 10, 2004 Their sound really bores me now and yes i have got all their cds.I even seen them last time round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zippy Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 There video for 'My Recovery Injection' is a classic!I had to laugh when I saw it!The album as a whole is great, I find it easier to listen to than'The Vertigo of Bliss',not saying that I don't like that record!I think the hidden track is really good, great to hear an honest Scottish accent coming from a band that are influenced by American rock.

KarmaTsunami Posted October 12, 2004 Report Share Posted October 12, 2004 according to a friend who saw them earlier this tour, biffy are playing a lot of ''blackened sky'' stuff, all the singles and 'scary mary' and...apparently...'convex/concave'. i swear, i hear 'justboy' live i'll be so so so happy. i'll be the midget with a grin the size of the great wall of china after the gig. but those were the england dates so i imagine the playlist will probably change before the aberdeen date. possibly. with all this reversion to older material...is it too far a stretch to pray they'll play ''hope for an angel''??

Heather_Small Posted October 12, 2004 Report Share Posted October 12, 2004 I would also be a midget with a very big smile if they played hope for an angel, just boy would be ace as well. Only heard it live once and it was superb live. less than a week to go now till we get to see them again!!!!!! H x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

get lost Posted October 12, 2004 Report Share Posted October 12, 2004 This album is what they have been threatening to do for a while, other than the songs the production by Chris Sheldon, (Therapy, Oceansize) has brought the best out of them, roll on the gig on Monday.

Camie Posted October 12, 2004 Report Share Posted October 12, 2004 ace they played a day of and there's no such thing as a jaggy snake!Shame they didnt play strung to the ribcage.Its a great album some songs are not as good as some songs on vertigo Bliss and vice versa. I think both albums are equal. This album is more weird though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
