Hello Sinister, Nick said:
I'd love to meet the people who like 'Beyond the Sunrise' They must be totally mad and it's always fun to meet mad people.
Oh hello there, I'm a nutter. Not in a random-acts-of-horrific-violence kind of way, but in an I-like-Beyond-The-Sunrise kind of way. Because I do. The first time I heard it I thought of a few choice critisisms I could apply to it, one of them being "arse". But now, it's great, and I'd like to point out why. It's when they're all going arrrrr-arrrrrrrrrrrrr-aaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, see? What's that you say? You haven't the faintest idea what I'm talking about? Right, moving on then. Before I bought FYHCYWLAP (yes, I sadly had to *buy* it), my B&S hating brother said "so, is it going to be crap then?" and I said "no, it's going to be better that The Boy With The Arab Strap, but not as good as Tigermilk and If You're Feeling Sinister". And what do you know, I was right. Although I think I'll kick up a bit of controversy by saying that I Fought In A War is the best opener they've done. Yes, better than The State I Am In. The bit where the bass goes duh duh duh duh before the band join in... genius. Oh yeah, and the orchestration. Well, it could be crap... but it isn't. And why? Because they're not using the same orchestra as Embrace, they're using a good one. And so the strings sound good. I've always thought that the strings on DD#2 were a bit crap. *That's* OTT, the new ones are just beautiful. My God, the tone of this email isn't at all like me. Sorry, I don't know what came over me. I've been outside a lot, and I think the fresh air might have affected my brain.
