Re: First Dimension
I can't tell if I don't actually like it, or if I just equate hearing that riff to having just watched one of the pledge interview videos. I liked the videos, but after a while it got kind of annoying that this was the song that played during them, I wanted to hear more. I like the Nick-rapping part, really like the "Oooh-oh-ooooooh's" in the background, even though it's somewhat cheesy. Super-like the guitar solo. Is that Stephen Hawking at the end, or just a computer voice?

Re: First Dimension
My 2nd favourite behind Made in the Shade? Yes, I do believe so.
The ominous "Oooh-oh-ooooooohs" at the end just make it seem even more extraterrestrial

Re: First Dimension
I get the "I feel like I shouldn't like this song" feeling. But for some reason I love it. I picked up the lyrics to it faster than any of the others. Chad tears it up come oringan style on here too.
Music's what i need to keep my sanity

What made you feel that you shouldn't like it? Just curious.GOAT wrote:I get the "I feel like I shouldn't like this song" feeling. But for some reason I love it. I picked up the lyrics to it faster than any of the others. Chad tears it up come oringan style on here too.

Re: First Dimension
I guess nicks delivery. It kind of sounds overcrowded and jumbled but for some reason it works.

Re: First Dimension
It has been a bigger criticism the past few years. It all started with Long For The Flowers.
I'll take a second listen at it but this shit is restoring my faith in Hexum right now. We'll see how I feel in 6 months.

Re: First Dimension
He does and for the most part he delivers. There are some notes throughout the album he tries to hit that he just can't and some of the harmonizing is annoying in places but the important part is that he actually TRIED with the lyrics. And SA happily doesn't feel like a tack on with lyrics that don't fit at all on the songs.GOAT wrote: I just gonna say it now. Nick dominates this album. Catchiest album to date.
Musically, instrumentally 311 never really lost it - the vocal delivery of the fromage lyrics is what ruined many a recent song. Sure they had Cheez Whiz lyrics since the beginning but they were delivered with such conviction or uniqueness that they never came across that way...
Re: First Dimension
Tim is so killer on this. Love. Nick's vocals on this. TONS of effects on his voice where the fuck has this been gaaahahhahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

Everything you do, it comes back to you, whatever it may be
To just know hate, well that's so sad. What a life, strife
There's much power in anger, but love's a bigger banger
It's a waste to be a hater
All the angst shit is just cheesy
Be positive
Take on the Love and the good Karma
Suckas look up to thugs, they like the attitude... the harder they act just to hide their insecurity
The only thing you always try to be is hard, because you're scared that someone might pull your card
I don’t dis people, I dis ideas. And when I say dis I mean disagree
