I think Televators lured me in too, but when i listened to the album Son Et Lumiere sealed the deal.

for some reason when they calmed the f**k down I understood more what they were going for and it was easier to hear them freak the f**k out.

My feelings on Noctourniquet is pretty similar. It's good.
Makes sense. I do remember HATING Deloused (except Televators) the first couple months I owned it until I found myself having songs from it stuck in my head and wanting to listen them. From there, I kept listening more and more and it just clicked.

Overall Octahedron wasn't the best, but it had some really good poppy songs I thought. It would be fun if they had tried to make a purely pop album.

I like all TMV, more or less. De-loused is definitely my favorite htough. The atmosphere and the story behind the lyrics work really well for me.

They probably only heard the loud parts, so I'm willing to let it slide. Tongue

I think I got some weird looks listening to Deloused on the bus today. I'm pretty sure I heard two 'different' songs that used the exact same beat coming from different sides of the bus so whutever. Was only on for five stops anyway.

^ ^ ^Also I want something with lime now.

how did they hear? did you broadcast it via a large boombox? hijack the bus sound system?...or laptop speakers? Ouch
Just through headphones. LOL
