Re: A Brief CracK Of Light in General Therapy? Topics

Got it yesterday in the post. Jewel case was shattered, (thanks to whomever, most likely USPS) but the CD was golden. Fucking awesome album throughout, particularly on a good pair of headphones. Yeah, I’m that old. :-)

It’s a bit like CT but “deeper and darker,” as Andy promised. But, Man Alive, it’s dreary in parts, never boring, but fucking downward, no? Am I maybe the only one that thinks Plague Bell may be an unapologetic “fuck you” to people that hope for Troublegum II: Electric Boogaloo? Marlow is definitely MM lite. But, I think that’s why I like it. 4 mins of wanking into guitars (with some nice choral vox as well) beats the shit outta 10+. Or, so the wife tells me.

The Buzzing is a fanfuckingtastic mindfucker. And aren’t Ghost Trio, Why Turbulence and Stark Raving Sane the best 1-2 jab and right cross anyone could ask for? Great album!

The responses sound encouraging! But it’s gonna take a while for it to get to the States, I spose. Global says it’s on the way, at least.

Re: New single? in General Therapy? Topics

You’ve definitely done better than me! Aside from “treacle” and “baggage,” I think “have got a new tour bus” might be “have got to interpret.” And “I heard it never needs your my lived life” could be “I heard it every inch of my lived life.” But I’ll wait for the lyric sheet to be certain. ;-)
