The Fascinating Turnip 07-28-2010 03:18 PM


It started well enough with the fun, quirky, and in a way robotic We’re Only Making Plans For Nigel. Unfortunately I find it never stopped being quirky and robotic, and it got tiresome for me.

Perhaps I just wasn’t in the mood, but I grew weary of silly singing and silly synth playing. Especially the bloody singing.

I tried to fully listen to the album several times and couldn’t. It bored the hell out of me. It doesn’t mean I won’t eventually like it, but as of now, I don’t have the patience for it.

I don’t like to review an album until I’ve played it to death, and I don’t like to review albums I don’t like, but it’s part of the trading post and I couldn’t bear listening to the album more than I have. I tried to like this and I failed.

I'm sure if I was quite laconic, but I had nothing else to say and I had to say something.

You see, I was afraid of that.

I like listening to albums until I either like them or feel like I can't like them at all and have to give up before I review them.

Right, let's see if we can't drum up a bit of interest in the next trade eh. I'm still due a word or two on the album I got from this one, so I'll see if I can start it sometime around Wednesday.

Needless to say, I'll be taking part in the next one, and I've already had a PM from BoardsOfCanada stating an interest too. There'll be a theme, but I haven't decided what it'll be yet.

Anyone else up for another go at this then?

Glad to hear it sirs :thumb:

I'll have mine up after I've had the chance to listen to the album a couple of times. Sometime tomorrow's my guess.

Alright, so I haven't listened to my album yet. I definitely won't let this one slip through my fingers though :p:

Anyway, who else wants in on the next trade? Surely at least a few more of you?

NumberNineDream 08-01-2010 05:28 PM

^ That's good to hear :p:

I've given mine more than a couple of spins, but I'm not sure I can review it yet. It won't be long though.
Oh, and I want in for the next one.
