~~HEY GUYS I'M ON THE RHINOCEROS I MEAN INTERNET~~
I've only gotten through Left so far, but this is what I had originally hoped Ghosts was going to be like. My favorite part so far is the alternate cut of Pilgrimage. Getting rid of those stupid horns and having a colder, more electronic sound is a vast improvement. I typically skip over that track, but I love this version.

I badly want to buy a tangible copy of this, but I'm as likely to see that as a Tension tour DVD at this point. Trent, why won't you take my money?

I wonder if this really is the 10 year old CD-R. There's no glitchy production all over it like you'd expect considering his latest output - instead a lot of it is heavier distortion on the drums and different guitar patches. Amazing seed0 never let this one out.

Old Town Road to EGOT

I'm finally listening to this thing all the way through (on Where Is Everybody? right now). I didn't know how much I needed this in my life until I heard it. This is so loving awesome. I want to listen to this every single goddamn day from now on. I can see so many use cases for this - like this would be great to put on while I'm at work or while driving. I was playing some Batman Arkham Knight earlier while listening to Left and it ruled for that.

I really want to buy a FLAC/WAV copy of this. I hope this isn't something that Trent just throws up on Apple Music and never releases in any other capacity, but knowing him, it probably will be :smith:

It's interesting to be able to finally hear what the original version of Ten Miles High probably sounded like. It's like an intentional attempt at slightly tongue-in-cheek buttrock, or something.

Can someone do a screen grab of the artworks from both instrumental playlists from an iPad retina's lock screen? I'm hoping they'll be higher quality than what I've been able to find elsewhere. The ones from the iPhone come to 676x676.

Is it just me or is this song not actually in the playlist Trent posted?

I found it by searching for it, but as far as I can tell it isn't actually in the Fragile (Instrumental) playlist.

Odd.

The With Teeth instrumentals are well worth it too. All The Love In The World is actually much better without the vocals in my opinion, and most of these songs are interesting enough that it doesn't feel like the vocals are missing. It totally changes the feel of the album and it's really interesting. If you dig hearing things you never noticed then it's definitely worth a bash.

I'm one of those weirdos who really likes With Teeth though.

He's also posted a video of he and Atticus doing some recording for Gone Girl. Not sure if it's been posted anywhere else, but I hadn't seen it before.

more edit: Apple music asks me to choose my favourite genres and decades, I choose 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s blues, jazz, rock and alternative and it comes up with a page asking to pick my favourite artists out of Whitney Houston, Spice Girls, Backstreet Boys and Limp Bizkit. Great stuff.
I dunno if you ended up figuring it out, but it does mention you can dismiss artists by holding their bubbles (you can also go back and redo that if you didn't). Also the suggestions get much, much better as you tell it artists and songs you like, so heart stuff.

I mainly use playlists for just my favorite songs by individual artists, broken up by artist. So I'll have like a "Nine Inch Nails" playlist that's all my favorite stuff by them. I have these for dozens of bands. So I went through and just mass favorited all of them, and now my suggestions are basically spot on.

Big Black Delta is launching a new album pretty soon

quote:

The song 'It's OK' was inspired by a series of difficult events that occurred during the year after Jon completed his tour on BBDLP1, the last Big Black Delta record. This included losing his father to a stroke, finding that all of his gear was stolen, and losing one of his best friends to cancer. Since going public with some of this news, Bates has been inundated with incredible kindness and thoughtful support from friends, musicians, fans and strangers alike. This song is a thank you. A gesture of gratitude to everyone who has been kind — and to the universe itself.
Big Black Delta's forthcoming album 'Tragame Tierra' is due out in January 2016, you can pre-order now via Pledge Music, alongside limited edition and exclusive merchandise:

Awww, Ghosts had its moments. But I definitely agree about Pilgrimage. It fits better on the album in this version, honestly.

i'm having trouble picturing how that would work in that format. the dust brothers' soundtrack worked so well and was great for the atmosphere - anonymous, gritty hip hop. i can't imagine the types of songs they would use that would work both as musical theater and the right mood for fight club

Dust brothers are not "gritty" hip hop FYI break beats with a trip hop veneer but really far too fast to be trip hop

I wouldn't expect a film soundtrack to necessarily sound like any of their albums. Johnny Greenwood has been composing orchestral pieces, including film scores, for some years now and it sounds nothing at all like Radiohead. While Fight Club of course came out before any of his soundtracks, he'd likely been developing his style as a composer for quite some time before that and I imagine that if Radiohead were commissioned for a film soundtrack they would probably rely pretty heavily on his skills in that area.

Fitter, Happier really fits well thematically for Fight Club actually, along with a lot of the existential angst of OK Computer in general. Wouldn't have fit musically, but thematically it makes sense.

Wasn't Fight Club something like a decade before There Will Be Blood though? I'm not sure how developed they would have been then.

yeah but he did some smaller projects in the early 2000's, and I kind of doubt he pulled those out of nowhere, he'd clearly been developing his style for a while

Finally got to listen to the Fragile instrumental rough cut. I love how the album in this form seems to gradually take on a more demented feeling, right around "The Mark Has Been Made". Really more due to the presence of the B-sides than the instrumentalness itself, I suppose.

Edit to avoid doubleposting:
Listening to the With Teeth instrumentals, I'm struck by the fact that "Love Is Not Enough" mostly has programmed drums, even though it's probably the song that would've benefited most from a more live sound. Even though on most of the other tracks, I'm longing for the exact opposite.

Their soundtrack to Max Payne 3 was what really turned me on to them. That thing was out of this loving world. And the couple singles they've put out from this new record so far sound rad as hell, so I'm looking forward to hearing the whole thing. Which I will probably do today since I just realized that's a full album stream link you posted, CMC :v:
