Don't feel bad, I don't really care for the Residents either. Wink

I gave it three stars! Because it's an OKish album. And despite the fact that I only really like about three of the songs on it.

I'd rather you review it how you really feel about it; that's what reviews are all about.

It would be better as 5 stars, but meh. Tongue

It still is a good review; I respect your opinion. Smile

I love them to death, but especially Eskimo. I've never heard another album like that in my life. It's amazing to listen to during the winter. Thumbs Up

Oh come on Rob, if I can review Still Life then it can't be that hard.

I know, but I want to write a reeeeeaaally good review for Still Life (comparable with my Pawn Hearts and Ys reviews) and I haven't managed it yet.

I do need more, yes. I only have one album, their debut.

I just love how silly it is. Tongue

Billed as an anthropological recording, but... it isn't.

Also, just in general... eyeballs and skulls = weird-but-cute!

Playing your album right now actually, 'Lost Wanderings' is the best track so far.

I do too. The thing I like the most about it though is that it's like being transported intellectually into a very unique, yet intriguing world. I can picture some neat stuff while listening to it. Big smile

I actually agree with you there. The Residents are cuddly! LOL

Awesome. Thumbs Up

I love that song; I composed the entire thing myself. Took so much work, but it was worth it. I personally think the 2nd half of the album is better than the 1st though.

Yes, he most certainly did. Big smile

In related zeuhl-purchasing news, I also bought myself a limited edition Guapo poster - currently being framed at vast expense (the framing will cost much more than the print!!).

And 2009 has got off to a good start. I got engaged on New Year's day! Big smile

I Concur.

Area is all-round fantastic stuff.

Somebody was recommending Deus ex Machina to me earlier - as in "If you like Area, you'll like Deus ex Machina". Anyone heard them?

I have not, but I've seen their name mentioned several times and I'm intrigued.
