Nope it hasn’t been deleted/removed. Because I searched it now, and there are a bunch of Soulseek users who are sharing it.
But if he can’t find it, that’s his problem not mine.
Motorpsycho Child Of The Future should be enough to write.
No offense, but it is slightly sad that you need help knowing what to search for :evil:
Ok, at last I’ve been getting to listen to the record enough (3 times is the required minimum). And here are my 2 cents:
I actually think that The Ozzylot is the best track on here. Still shows that Bent is able to pen great indie poprock songs. And irresistible vocal harmonies. And the drum pattern is similar to Hyena. Classic!
Riding The Tiger was the track on the Youtube-clip from Roadburn. Cool stuff with some fucked up time signatures. And just enough at 5 minutes (it would’ve been overlong if it was longer) And they fucking sampled one of their one songs (Tristano). But me likes!
Whole Lotta Diana has the end jam which I thought was very familiar. Well guess what: They played it live last year. For those of you who have the Vega Copenhagen bootleg, check out the version of Superstooge. The mid-section has a big portion of the Diana end jam (which I like more than the first part of the song). So a bit ambivalent about this one.
Cornucopia is also very cool, although I like the verses better than the chorus for some reason. Also, Snah’s finest solo on the album midway in the song.
Mr. Victim IS the weakest track just because it doesn’t have anything attractive about it. Decent main bass riff and good vocals from Snah & Bent, other than that, NADA. Thankfully it’s the shortest track on the record.
I was right in my predictions about The Waiting Game being an acoustic Bent livingroom song
And it fits right into the line of those songs (7th Dream, Feel, Wishing Well, Sailboat Song etc.) Nice melody, cool background effects, the vintage sore Bent vox and a nice buildup just over halfway with some el-guitars and other instruments added. Second best track on the record after the opener.And I was like others slightly disappointed with the version of Insert Songtitle that is the title track. As mentioned, this was played live in summer festivals and Norwegian tour 2006 with Jacco van Rooij. And the fast live-version they played then was quite superior to the slow sludgey stomper they ended up recording in studio. Still it is a good song, and I can imagine them speeding it up live. But this slow version doesn’t quite do the song justice.
Overall another good album, but not a classic like LLM. Compared to Barracuda, it is way better. This is a way more even album, although Dr Hoffmann’s Bicycle is better than everything on here. And I can’t wait to hear some of these songs live (they have a shitload of potential being experimented upon in concert)
More info regarding the songs:

I don’t think Big Dipper is having a midnight sale on COTF like they did with LLM.

“Mostly short and concise songs” it says.
Haha, the old 577 discussion. I remember that one from g-35, you should’ve seen some of the weird-ass theories people came up with there. Example: Turn 577 upside-down and you get LLS. That could mean something like “Long Live Satan” or “Lars Lien Sucks” :mrgreen:
And some years ago, Snah revealed in an interview what the song was about. It’s about becoming 19 years old, and the way to getting there. 5+7+7=19 obv.
And I agree, great song. Personal top 10 favorite of mine.
I’m guessing the old song in new disguise was All Is Loneliness. That one has become very spacy ever since the Autumn tour 2006.
Other than that, where are the tapers??? :cry: I’m at least expecting someone to record the Pstereo-gig :lol:
GBD: Yeah I know that line could be interpreted that way as well. But until we get further proof, I’m hoping it’s a Bent livingroom recording :lol:
I’ll be seeing them at Øyafestivalen mid-August. Never seen em live before, with the exception of the guest appearances with MP.
marc: It said so on the rune grammofon website. But it could mean that it just contains more acoustic work while not being entirely acoustic…
“The slightly Zeppelin-esque â€ÂThe Waiting Game†is more acoustic and recorded at home.”
