Is It Worth Getting?
 

For those of us who purchase our music we all know it's sometimes hard to decide if we really want to pick up that album or not. I trust most of the members here with their opinions so I was thinking for those of us who are just unsure if they should get that album or not should ask what people think about it here.
I can't decide if I should buy Clap Your Hands Say Yeah!'s Some Loud Thunder album. I've heard some positive things and negative things. Some said it was very good and some people said it was too experimental. Whats your all's final word? Persuade me either way!

I'm not sure why you're buying music (whether it's an anti-theft policy thing or you're worried you might get in trouble for downloading) but even when I start spending money on supporting the artists I plan on downloading the album beforehand and seeing if it's worth the money. I suggest you do the same.

Or even youtube

I buy discs. And use music blogs and such when I want an artist. I already have heard one or two songs buy Clap Your Hands Say Yeah! and like it for the most part. We could just turn this into is it worth going through the googling trouble to get this album? Or just a what do you think of this album should I get it thread? Haha, hell I don't know. Work with me.

Agreed.

Also, check out last.fm and imeem, that will give you a chance to listen before you buy. Or just torrent that ****.

Am I able to In Before The Lock my own thread? :)

I'm not gonna lock it. I think there is something to be said for making such decisions based on the opinions of others. I think it might die fairly quickly on it's own if no one does lock it, however.

Don't lock it. I like these threads where you can get some opinions before investigating a band.

Thank you then. Haha, so does anyone have an oppinion on
Some Loud Thunder by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah!

They should change their name.
