Nice to see someone appreciates a great album, whats your favourite tracks off the album?. Mines is 'Im The Ocean' & 'Throw Your Hatred Down'. Its kind of hard to choose though as they are all top notch.
man i didn't know the whole band was his backing, i just thought it was eddie vedder who had credit to one of the songs


but yeah i really enjoyed it. i loved I'm the Ocean as well, along with Big Green Country and Song X

8/10 It's to the point.

Janszoon 06-03-2009 07:55 PM
I have no idea what Sonace means but it's pretty distinct and it's easy to remember which makes it the ideal kind of handle as far as I'm concerned. 10/10

Heather 06-03-2009 08:04 PM
Janszoon.... I like it. 10/10

Yeah, actually Eddie Vedder wasnt really there for most of the recording. As for the recording, it was recorded live in the studio in very little takes which gives the album a very raw sound. You can hear at one of the songs Neil Young telling the others 'no tuning or nothing man'. Also I think most of the songs were written on the spot in the space of about 5 days or so. There are the two guitarists Stone Gosssard & Mike Mccready, Jeff Ament on bass & the magnificient Jack Irons on drums. Irons only played with Pearl Jam for a couple of albums ('No Code' & some other album I cant remember), also he used to be with the Chilis in their early days and played on the excellent 'Uplift Mofo Party Plan'. I also remember reading Neil Young had said at the time that this was the first time he had been in a band with three potential lead guitarists since his Buffalo Springfield days.
The only song Eddie Vedder is present on is Peace & Love where he sings near the end, also Im not sure but I think he may play piano on one of the other songs. It may come as a surprise but this is probably my favourite album of all time. I also have some delicious rarities including the Pearl Jam 'Merkinball' Ep they did the year after (which features two songs with Neil Young 'I Got ID' & 'Long Road') & a Neil Young & Pearl Jam Mirrorball tour bootleg recorded live in sweden.

Throughout it all, the username is haunting, and its best moments rank among TumorAttitudes finest work, but the over-amped dynamicism of the name seems like a way to camouflage his dispiritedness.

The name was never meant to change the world, but you can never predict when the zeitgeist will hit, and TumorAttitude's name turned out to be the place where attitudes crashed into tumors. This wasn't entirely an accident, either, since TumorAttitude did register in December, and he did release a name with a shiny surface, no matter how humongous the letters looked. And, yes, TumorAttitude is probably a little shinier than it should be, positively glistening with U's and T's, especially when compared with the black-and-white murk of his signature. This doesn't discount the name, since it's not only much cooler than any mainstream name of 2008, its character isn't on the surface, it's in the exhilaratingly raw letters and haunting grammer. TumorAttitudes's personal problems naturally deepen the dark undercurrents, but no matter how much anguish there is in this name, it's bracing because he exorcises those demons through his evocative wordplay and mangled posts — and because his posts have a tremendous, unbridled power that transcends the pain, turning into pure catharsis.

Please! :tramp: You owe me for the video I did, especially seen as you were the first entrant.

Rickenbacker 06-09-2009 08:46 PM
While the idea of a "mirror ball" is intriguing in its double meaning, that is, a dance associated with mirrors in some way or a physical ball with a reflective surface, it is ruined by the numbers at the end, which simply prove that you were not creative enough to procure a name that hasn't already been taken without those numbers.

Original. Makes me think of guns and tunnels!

Neapolitan 06-09-2009 10:50 PM
5/10

It's a average, a composite score, a 10 for the fact it reminds me of the song Burning Down the House, and I just love the Talking Heads; and a 0 because I don't like to think of thing burning.

WWWP 06-09-2009 10:51 PM
9/10 because it reminds me of Lisa Mitchell's Neopolitan Dreams.

Janszoon 06-09-2009 11:55 PM
10/10 Because it makes me reminisce about Don Henley's "The Boys of Summer" every time I see it.

FireInCairo 06-10-2009 12:53 AM
Not sure what its in reference to...maybe Willem Janszoon?
9/10
catchy

Antonio 06-10-2009 01:20 AM
don't know the reference, but sounds awesome

9/10

Scarlett O'Hara 06-10-2009 06:06 AM
10/10 due to the fact that I know a guy called Antonio who was an absolute legend. And you're pretty snazzy yourself.

Antonio 06-10-2009 06:12 AM
a legend of what?

Speaking of Don Henley's solo works, I have one album, 'The End Of The Innocence' which is pretty good actually. He has one those perfect voices.

Gareth Brown 06-10-2009 08:57 AM
Its ok. I'd give it a 5.

If you had heard the album, then I think you would rate it a lot higher.
4/10 Its just a name really, but one that happens to annoy me every time I read it, dont worry I wont say too much more, Ill save it for the video of you which I am going to do next. ;)

Cool hes mine too!, I think we could have a lot in common. 10/10 for this alone.
So what Neil Young albums do you like? Ones I highly recommend checking out if you havent already heard are Ragged Glory, Sleeps With Angels, Broken Arrow, Landing On Water, Trans, After The Gold Rush..... the list goes on. Im much more into his later stuff, but mostly all of his stuff is just cracking.

Its a 1995 album by Neil Young called Mirrorball. I think my username is suitable in relation to this aspect.

8/10 as I really do like his music. I meant to ask Stone Birds, did you like my remix of 'Zenith Observer' in your video?

Stone Birds 06-10-2009 01:47 PM
8/10

it wasn't a remix because it included 0% of the audio of the original

Burning Down 06-10-2009 02:59 PM

For some reason I'm thinking that "Stone Birds" is a band... I'm not sure though :confused:
