I just heard them.....

I think that "Leaving Beiruit" is awful and That the first song is only mediocre.

How can I actually download them? I only get small files and no music at all.

Liked To Kill the Child a lot, except for the last part were he actually tries to sing

And now i?ll listen to Leaving Beirut (12 minutes!!!! Yay!)

"Oh George! Oh George!
That Texas education must have fucked you up when you were very small"

Yeah, really!

My thoughts:

I would like to hear them altogether on an album. I like the words, and I'm hoping that the music for future official album releases, will be a little more...just more...more complex...more. I think Roger's voice is mixed too soft on Leaving Beirut where he is telling the tale. Would like that to come out in front more. I think the women's voices are mixed too loud...wanted them more in the background.

Is it just me, or is the sound of these very evocative of mid 70s Bowie? Roger's voice, since KAOS even, but especially in ATD has had this very Bowie sound to it which is quite odd considering that Bowie was one of those to think Pink Floyd stopped existing after Syd left. So I certainly don't think any Bowie appropriation is conscious on Roger's part.

Like I said...it could be just me.

Edited to add: You're right, FlameSkyDiver...they are small files. Weird. Must be a copyright protection thing so you have to buy them.

I've just listened to it, not bad, but I'm not stunned either. The music is not bad, but the 12-minute track is only a carrier of words, I'd imagine more variety on such track, otherwise Roger can as well release it as a book. The short track I like more, but Each Small Candle and Flickering Flame both are better IMO. I'll have to read the lyrics carefully.

That's what I was afraid of. It's not so cool to sell mp3 files through internet. I, for one, don't have a credit card or a bank account so what can I do? Nothing.

Listening to Kill a Child. Its really good. Cant wait for the album.
And this should be PF members.

Taking a look at the .mov file in QuickTime Pro...

It's a "Streaming Track", which I guess it means it's getting its feed from the internet as opposed to just a "Sound Track" which would be embedded in the file itself.

OK, try opening up those files in a text program (like Notepad?). I'm using BBEdit. Some very interesting URLs in there...hmmmm....

can anybody open them with winamp? i can?t... with winamp it would be no problem to rip the stream to mp3....

liquiddreamx · Post by **liquiddreamx** » Fri Sep 03, 2004 6:20 pm

they are amazing even though "leaving beirut" is a bit long. But lyrically i think it's excellent. I hope these songs can make some people think a little.
