[quixoticgoat]

[Freek]

[jlaird]

OH NO!!!! She's a rejector! I must protect myself!

[sunglo71199]

come on, be a friend....

[Harnk]

Faberge Falls For Shuggie and A Sentence of Sorts in Kongsvinger get double plays

[quixoticgoat]

come mood shift, shift back to good again
cmon chemica-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-als

[quixoticgoat]

...though, i must say that "Gronlandic Edit" has some damn good lyrics...

(anihilists with good imaginations)

I am satisfied
hiding in our friend's apartment
only leaving once a day
to buy some groceries

daylight I'm so absent-minded
nighttime meeting new anxieties
so am I erasing myself?
hope I'm not erasing myself

I guess it would be nice
to give my heart to a god
but which one, which one do I choose?
ah, the church is filled with losers
psycho or confused
I just want to hold the divine
in my hand and forget

all of the beauty's wasted

let's go, let's go, let's go
do something pleasant
(say it)
we fell back to earth like gravity's bitches
(physics make us all its bitches)

I guess it would be nice to help in your escape
from patterns your parents designed

all the party people dancing for the indie star
but he's the worst faker by far
in the set

oh, forget
all of the beauty's wasted

I guess it would be nice
(show me that things can be nice)
I guess it would be nice
(you're trapped)
show me that things can be nice

you've got my back in the city
you've got my back because I don't want to panic
you've got my back in the city
you've got my back because I don't want to panic

Bunny Ain't No Kind of Rider.

No one wants to dance. They're outside. Smoking cigarettes. :(

Faberge Falls for Shuggie and Heimdalsgate Like a Promethean Curse are close behind.

[horseface]

cato...and i retract any previous disses to "hissing"...this shits genius...except labyrinthian

[quixoticgoat]

labyrinthian pomp is fun. its so ghetto fabulous!

how you wanna drag my style
I am so superior
how you wanna hate a thing
when you are so inferior

[Harnk]

"Take my style"

[horseface]

its overt cheesiness disrupts the records cool vibe

[quixoticgoat]

i think that it has some of the same elements that are used in the rest of the record. i think hissing fauna is great because its got the two extremes going. "The Past is a Grotesque Animal" is one side of the extreme and "labyrinthian pomp" is the other half. and all the rest of the songs incorporate themes that are going on in those two songs. most of the songs have that 70s funk going on. and most of the songs have that melancholy about them. i think that if labyrinthian werent there the record really wouldnt be complete. i think i'd be reaching to find that ONE ultra funk song that they missed.

[josaphax]

yeah, i agree.. but i thought the lyric was, "how you gonna tag my style" but whateve.

[HolidaySurprise]

Right now i would say...
1. Gronlandic Edit
2. Suffer for Fashion
3. A Sentence of Sorts
4. Bunny
5. Labyrinthian
6. Heimdalesgate
7. Cato as a Pun
8. Sink the Seine
9. She's a Rejector
10. Mutants
11. Faberge Falls
12. The Past blah blah....

But thats just my opinion.

[nach_heart]

Shuggie. The Past is a Grotesque Animal is a very close second.

[theoperahouse]

bunny just speaks to me.

[HolidaySurprise]

[Nomad]

[Pål]

love this album!

[haydiemuffin]

the past is a grotesque animal

epic!! somehow the way he sings and the lyrical content keeps me entertained for the entire twelve minutes of the song

[haydiemuffin]

oh yeah and leafling is beautiful too .. it gets no love
