Re: Thoughts on Barking (Track by Track)
I noticed in DJ there is one measure that plays crash on every beat (kind like on ALAF), different than the rest of the track. You can hear it at 3:56. After that one time it doesn't do it anymore. I wonder if it was a mistake??? Just seems to weirdly out of place...

I realize why I don't like it as much as the live versions we've heard...those chord changes during the chorus were a lot more powerful, now they're just glossed over. Still have to say PVD did a good job with it (especially the parts where everything kind of explodes, sounds great) but this is definitely the track I look forward to the most on disc 2.

Also just noticed that the words spoken on Scribble's "breakdown" are the same ones that Karl sings at the tune's "climax"...now I get it

Just listened to this all the way through again...it is still growing on me...I think the overall sound is not as good as previous UW albums, but track for track this is their best in a long time. A MILLION kudos for not turning up all the levels the way albums like this have been doing lately. There is not a whole lot of subtlety here but what's there comes through nicely!!!

Overall i'm thinknig 8.5/10 for this one
