wha? people don't like leaky lifeboat? i was hooked as soon as i heard it

"Leaky Lifeboat" is one of my favorites on there. The harmonics at the
beginning and end, the dual vocals, the fact it's dedicated to a great fucking
poet...

dual vocals is a thing, also beginning reminds of swings - that's awesome when music is like kinda physical process! i also like when steve decides how to drum in the end.

I don't really hate it, I'd just say it's the one I like the least, alongside Thunderclap (which I prefer musically but don't like in terms of vocals/lyrics).

I think all the songs are good on the Eternal, so this is a hard one, but I'll vote for No Way just because it's the least fresh sounding.

No Way

I agree with Jen and you, this is one of the best songs on there. I love when kim goes, lalalala la la, fucking great

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to jennthebenn again.

I don't dislike Leaky Lifeboat... it's just the one that I like least on the album.

haha. I knew it was going to be a winner when I first heard the teaser.

I'm shocked that it's getting this many votes.

Leaky Lifeboat is frickin' awesome! In my opinion it's one of the best songs on the album.

My vote goes to Sacred Trickster

Dead-Air 06.14.2009 03:11 PM

I'm going to go with "Antenna" though I like the song. I at least like them all though.

mil_pl 06.14.2009 03:27 PM

fuck you all, is all I can say :p

greedrex 06.14.2009 03:36 PM

fuck fuck fuck

Antenna.

I don't dislike it but it's my least favourite.

EVOLghost 06.14.2009 07:55 PM

Antenna is one of my faves! Doesn't exactly sound like SY but I friggin' love it.

Dead-Air 06.14.2009 07:59 PM

I totally want to recall my choice, but then I don't know what I'd put in it's place. That said, I don't honestly think any of the songs on this album will be among my ALL TIME FAVORITES, but they're all really solid rock tunes with great guitar noises. This album should have been the follow up to Nurse, because it really is like Sonic Youth bursting free from the layered stuff they did with O' Rourke (which I love entirely on a different level) and letting it rock hard.

"No Way" is my least favorite. But it's marginal. THe album is brilliant.
