Thoughts on Barking (Track by Track)

[miss glitch]

I'm pretty late to the game, but here are my first thoughts...

Bird 1 - I really loved Strumpet and this is a great version, a fantastic album opener - made me very happy. Listened to this on repeat a few times before I made it to the rest of the album
ALAF - I like this version a *lot* better than the live version... Definitely a grower.
Scribble - Happiest song in the world. Well, since Rez/Cowgirl anyway. Full of hope and wonder.
Hamburg Hotel - Cute little noodly IDM-y track with the barely-audible vocal samples filtering in.
Grace - By this point I was pretty choked up by how much I loved the album. Grace is amazing, very new wave.
Between Stars - Amazing! Again! So good! Excalmation marks!
Diamond Jigsaw - Oh. Okay, well at least this gave me a chance to calm down a bit. Not really my thing. Skipped after half way :/
Moon In Water - I think this is a grower... Cute.
Louisiana - I sort of like how the epic last tracks like Best Mamgu Ever, Luetin etc, but not so keen on Louisiana. But only because the rest of the album was so good and my expectations were so high.

Am still awaiting my copy so have just heard the album on Myspace - no sign of Simple Peal...

Overall - amazing, brilliant, so happy. Thanks, Underworld. <3
