BAEST MODE!!!
I think Billy has done a pretty good job choosing people to tour with. I loved the 07 an 08 tours, but I also liked the music he was releasing then, and think the band sounds fine when I hear stuff now, the lyrics and mixing are just really bad.

To make yourself feel better, you make it so you'll never give in to your forevers and live for always.

No, don't do this to me.... I can't again.

You know, if Oceania hadn't been good, great even, I would've lost hope long ago.

But goddammit, it was so much better than Zeitgeist and the teargarden stuff (though Superchrist sounds, to me, like it was right out of Pastichio Medley).

Can that happen again?

Seriously doubt it. If ATUM was supposed to be the spiritual successor to Mellon Collie or whatever the gently caress Billy claimed it would be, he was either playing the heel as he so loves to do or the band as we used to know them is cooked and lost to Billy's synthsoaked space whimsies, and future album listens, at least for me, will be done out of pessimistic masochism rather than fragile optimism.

Like, this band gave us Gish and Siamese Dream. Surely there's some of that energy left somewhere in there, right? But I ain't holding my breath anymore.

Holy poo poo.

I need more of this. Thank you!

Though it's missing Jimmy's distinctive drumming. Is there another track by them that has any of that?

I don't understand this reference. I know who Greta van fleet are and don't really like them. What I do like is that SD/Pisces Iscariot sound.

It’s very unapologetic yes. But it still sounds nice

To be fair the rest of the album mixes it up, but still keeps it pretty rooted in heavy psych
