New site? Maybe some day.
|
It's really cool how this album was made. Downloading now. |
|
Already, holy shit. They're still pressing it right? That poker guy gave enough money for recording and pressing, right? |
|
is it still avantgarde? or have they watered down their experimentation (for lack of a better word)? |
|
i think it's rerecordings of old songs, so they probably didn't water it down. |
|
From what I was reading, it's more like adaptations of stuff they had worked on but not released over the years. |
|
just donated 10 bucks. haha. haven't listened yet |
|
I was listening to this again last night. Really like the 1st song a lot. |
|
if you're enjoying this stuff, go check out baliset at metal thursday this week! |
|
this could honestly pass as a legit movie soundtrack. If only most of the people in Hollywood got their head out of their asses when it came to soundtracks.. |
|
Powerful album, brilliantly composed. This is what Kayo Dot should now sound like. |
|
Kayo Dot sucks and this album is nowhere near as good as their last two albums. There's some great parts but it's missing that maudlin feel that kicked my ass the first time I heard them. |
|
it's way more mellow. more classical inspiried composition; piano, violin (btw, she's slammin' hot), etc. way less metal-inspired parts than earlier Maudlin.
It's a nice listen when you're craving something to relax you.
Also, that bass part is great! |
|
It's good definitely but not great, which is what I expected. |
|
|
It's awesome definitely but not metal, which is what I final fantasy 11 sucks. |
|
|
Never played 11 so no care and I don't listen to metal much these days. |

I know, just trying to be a dbag. But not listening to metal much these days? Once a metalhead, always a metalhead. I primarily listen to metal, but listen to just about every other type of music, mostly 70s stuff. I would never disband metal. |
|
I still do but not as much. I'm mostly disenchanted. I can't find anything interesting/different. Which is why I started that new music thread. I'm going to try to round off my Zappa collection until I find some out of this world metal. I'm excited for NEDF though because Orgone is playing and they're easily one of my favorite extreme metal bands. |
|
I'd say hit the pipe. you'd find music way more interesting.

You don't listen to a lot of black metal, right? |
|
|

i'm feeling the same way. i've been venturing out of metal because i'm so bored with it, and i'm sick of the bullshit within it. Aril peaked my interest in prog, and i'm finding so much enjoyment out of it. |

I did? haha, sweet. |
|
i seperated myself from the bullshit within metal by starting a metal band. |
|
Glad I got to see these guys live. |

SO jealous |

Not a lot and not the "grim" stuff. I love Deathspell Omega and Blut Aus Nord. |
|
You should delve into the more avantgarde type black metal if you're looking for something interesting. |
|
name it and I can tell you if I've listened to it or not. sometimes I'm not sure what's considered black metal. Like, is Sigh BM? |
|
Listened to this and the baliset album last night... made me feel like a terrible musician. |
|
Fans of muadlin should come check out Baliset at Metal Thursday this week. Greg Massi of motW plays guitar and the band is pretty much his own little brainchild. |
|
Is Baliset also an amalgamation of metal mixed with orchestral arrangements? This thread forced me to bust out my Maudlin CD's, plus Toby Driver's In the L..L..Library Loft. |
|
Chances are I will be at the MT this week to see this. But It's always a pain getting home at 3AM and getting up a few hours later |
|
Yeah, I think I'm going as well. |
|
|

Nope. Greg wanted to go in a different direction with this. Certainly influenced by his time in motW but saying we sound like them would be a very big stretch. |
|
Awesome. No need to rehash old ideas, right? I'm looking forward to hearing some fresh new ones. |

Greg and I had the same guitar teacher in college...different years, but same fella. My teacher was always saying that Greg just wanted to do a more traditional prog-metal sort of thing.Always was waiting for something like Baliset to get started from him. |
|
Baliset is still looking for a second guitarist BTW so if anyone is interested let me know! |
|
Bump.
This album is definitely top 10 2009. |
|
You really think so? It has it's cool parts and great production value but it doesn't hold a candle to Leaving Your Body Map |
|
wait, I guess that's not what you were saying. I guess I'd have to agree. |
|
While I had wished they had heavier parts like the old stuff, I view this album differently. |
|
Considering what Toby has been doing with Kayo Dot and his other projects, I'm not surprised at the way it turned out. |
|
God, I hate Kayo Dot. Like a slap in the face. |
|
Way to talk trash about local bands |
|
lol. are you really still on the commuter rail? Sucks. I'm going to sleep.
Kayo Dot is all the bad parts of Maudlin of the Well put together to make a whole lot of bad music. |
|
|
Way to talk trash about local bands |
Let alone a musician with artistic credibility, that talentless people accuse of composing pretentious nonsense. |
|
He's my second favorite Toby. |
|
1st! |
|

What does it matter if they're local? They're still a band just like any other band, open for scrutiny.
And besides, I fucking love Maudlin of the Well. That lovable faggot Grant wouldn't even know MotW if it weren't for me, haha. I've gotten a legion of my sister's male friends into MotW, and they also happen to like Kayo Dot and all the other MotW spawn. |
|
Call me crazy, but I sensed that the SM was in full effect, in aril's post above. |
|
I was responding more to the response to aril's comment. |
|
|

|
Internet sarcasm. |
|
|

Haha, I know, that's why I said what I did.
whcih was now confirmed. |
|
I was responding to the initial response to your other response to mikeov's sarcastic response, but my response wasn't directed at your response per se; rather the initial concept of responding to responses, martins. |
|
I'm gonna respond all over your face when I respawn. |
|
Bump for being brilliant. |
|
|
Bump for getting them to play metal thursday. |
Fixed? |
|
if at all possible, that'd be awesome. |
|
i am still in love with this band. so good. bath/leaving your body map are masterpieces imo. |
|
absolutely motherfucking brilliant. |
|
finally starting to delve into this project. |
