David Lynch: Good Day Today

Jason Bentley is a huge Underworld fan. He would not mix it up.

Please post a link. I can't listen to the stream.

yeah, now that i replay it, it's not very similar. must have been the tone of the vocal effect that made that connection in my mind.

Anybody think maybe this is a B-Side to the single of Scribble?

it sounds sort of B sidey

[ThingInABook]

it's just my imagination or the start of GDT has a little bit of scribble's synths? listen closely, it's kind of masked by the other song, but i think it's there.

This does sound b-sidey, I definitely don't think this was intended to be a single. They're not really doing b-sides anymore but I'd assume it would be on the album.

A little post by myself on the whole new releases and all that... not much yet but just my two cents

Nice one, Dunwho!

Well, it does seem like Karl is streamlining his vocals. And some of Rick's synths do sound a bit 80's-ish. But i don't consider these new tracks or the live ones to be a huge throwback to Freur or UW mk i. Those incarnations were strictly pop. synth-pop of funk-pop or whathaveyou, but the lyrics were designed for the masses and the instrumentation clearly of the time. Yes, these latest underworld tracks do have elements of the past, but they're not stale; in fact, they're like UW reinventing or reacclaiming themselves as electronic, after increasing forays into ambient or live jamming.

of course, once we hear the new album in full, we can make a concerted decision on what they're up to!

Ok, an hour or so ago, i was pretty grossed out by "Good Day Today", but it's quickly revealing itself to me.
Though by no means a direct comparison, tthere have always been album cuts that on first blush the fans were like, "What the heck?" Think "Ess Gee" and "Bruce Lee" and "Trim". Yeah, they're a bit unexpected and maybe not fan favorites, but i like that UW is not afraid to stretch beyond the epic electronic that they're known for. Whereas some of their contemporaries (err, Chemical Brothers, Moby, Prodigy, to an extent Hybrid, although their latest LP is stunning, Leftfield, even Fluke) played it formulaic, with the exception of a few cuts on AHDO, Underworld have not repeated themselves. I think the new record will be a revelation.

im very very confused by this track. the gunshots are very bizarre. sounds mobyish. its not a bad track, whoever made it.

Why would he have a different track than everyone else got? so confused.
