Guest wolf Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 i like the shorts at the end of certain MHTRTC tracks -- triangles & rhombuses -- kaini industries .. .. and the rhizoid/rising-mind feel of some Geogaddi tracks too -- beach at redpoint -- dawn chorus .. .. as well as the yellowed-nature-tape feel of both -- wildlife analysis -- dandelion .. but they gave me a sticker w/ TCH . so i'll have to go w/ TCH Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/8673-your-favorite-boc-album/page/2/#findComment-176243 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest twiddler Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Yeah after a deep thinking process... Twoism is my favourite. It was the first thing I heard by them and it defined their sound for me. It has no children voices samples, no fancy programming and production, it's pretty rough, but also very sad and cold and distant. You don't get any direct statements - just melodies and fucked up textures, which you can interpret any way you like. It's an escape album - that's how I felt it the first time, and this is how i feel it now. I rarely listen to it, but the melodies are so stuck in my mind, they are always with me. Maybe it's not for everyone, but for me it's perfect.

tarsier888 Posted June 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 well now that i have the abpoitc and hi scores (still waiting for twoism) and mhtrtc and geogaddi i can say what my favorite album is. my favorite album is.. *drum roll* badadfadadadadadadada .. i like them all the same. mhtrtc is brilliant, and geogaddi is brilliant. they are both amazing, i also love tch, which is also amazing. i can't make up my mind yet even though i listen to them every single day :laughing: there are actually a couple of things i don't like about these two albums, in pete standing alone the stupid loud moaning sound totally messes up the mood for me, and in geogaddi one of the songs reminds me too much of salad fingers and there are a few too many little intermission songs, even though i love them i'm just going off about nothing right now so i guess i'll stop..... but if i had to choose one of the three albums i would probably pick mhtrtc, because of roygbiv, sixtyten, and aquarius :grin: actually.. no. screw it, i take it back i can't make up my mind.
