Wall of Mouths

How about something a bit left-field like ‘Californication’ or ‘It’s The End Of The World As We Know It’?

Well I have only heard ‘The Day That Never Comes’ so far and I love the song structure and musical ideas (especially J.H.’s vocals and the last section). Maybe it’s just me, but the production seems crap! It keeps clipping and peaking out (via an iTunes download) and the recording level seems way too high, sometimes distorting in the bass tones. Has anyone else noticed anything on the other songs and is this an iTunes issue or a production issue at source? God forbid if the rest of the album’s like that!

Might sound a bit cheesy, but I watched Scopophobia again over the weekend - absolutely awesome! I just think they all seemed so up for that gig, whether it was because it was Belfast or that it was being filmed I don’t know, but a fantstic energy and sound as always from the boys. I also watched the DVD of the Metallica rehearsal that came with ‘St Anger’. I know many people think the album’s crap (I think it’s excellent but I’m in a minority of one!) but the DVD is fantastic and showns them all playing at full pelt and as a really tight unit, which bearing in mind the trials and tribulations of getting the album finished is no mean feat!

Title: Have They Gone And Done It?

I’ve been a regular watcher of the T? website for the last two or three years and this seems to be the longest period I’ve ever known when there’s been no update from the band and no content placed on the site. I’m not sure, but all this seems to point to a slowing down of T? activity in general. This summer in particular they don’t seem to have done many gigs/festivals/site updates/interviews. Unless someone knows something to the contrary, does anyone else think there may be something more ominous to all this than just a break? Have they split or what?

Title: Kick Out The Jams

Just come across a really cool video on Youtube that I didn’t know was out there. It’s from the N.I. programme called ‘Kick Out The Jams’ and it’s got Andy and Mikehell playing some acoustic stuff (mainly from OCFA) and Andy being interviewed. It’s from February this year I think. It’s probably been mentioned on here before but I haven’t come across it. Just put in ‘Kick Out The Jams Therapy?’

Enjoy!
