I could give a full review of it all but it's not even worth it. I would just say get Scribble and Fears off of this and not worry about the rest.
It's good and all but not GREAT SUPER WOW like most here are babbling.   |
I guess it's a matter of taste, but I absolutely LOVE JAL's weird vocoded vocals.
And to be honest, I AM thinking "GREAT SUPER WOW", because all the new ones (Back In The Fears, Peggy Sussed and Lenny Penne) are simply AMAZING.
I like it how he does the Spoonman lyrics in KoS, because I have heard Karl do the "fire in the hand between us" thing quite a lot, so this was a nice change.
Further more, I want to say that I actually REALLY dig Pearl's Girl on here. It's quite short, but the fact that it's only the beat, bassline and vocals and nothing more, has something really bad-ass to it. Hmmm!
