Taking that and the last two Talk Talk albums is an immersive trilogy. I'm a fan of Talk Talk's more pop oriented sound, but it's hard to believe it's the same band.

I think Colour of Spring is a pretty good transitional album where you see them getting more serious while still having some hooks, but even so, it's a pretty impressive transition.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑25 Feb 2019, 8:35pmTaking that and the last two Talk Talk albums is an immersive trilogy.

There's b-side from that period, "It's Getting Late in the Evening," that gives a strong hint of where his mind and ambitions were leaning.Kory wrote: ↑25 Feb 2019, 8:36pmI think Colour of Spring is a pretty good transitional album where you see them getting more serious while still having some hooks, but even so, it's a pretty impressive transition.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑25 Feb 2019, 8:35pmTaking that and the last two Talk Talk albums is an immersive trilogy.

So, if Heston and revbob had a kid, it'd be a perverse monster. Yeah, that makes sense.

It's the most depressing album I've ever heard. That's not a condemnation either.
Forces have been looting
My humanity
Curfews have been curbing
The end of liberty
We're the flowers in the dustbin...
No fuchsias for you.

One of those weird and cool pieces that just popped in my head. It was the closing theme to Talk Radio, but Generation Hoy likely knows it more from Spacehog's "In the Meantime."

I'm leaning toward Option 5, but waiting for input from the Boss.

I mistyped—I'm getting Option 6. The Boss never tells me no for this kinda stuff, even when I'd rather she cast a more jaundiced eye at me.Kory wrote: ↑27 Feb 2019, 2:59pmOption 8 looks pretty damn cool...Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑27 Feb 2019, 2:53pmFundraiser for the next Swans record: https://younggodrecords.com/collections ... at-is-this
