seabutter Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 and the way they fuck with the beat and the timing of the delivery on identikit rules so hard fuck yeah. I absolutely love this version of the song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggie p Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 sounds almost like he says both sweet darlin, sweet dark, sweet darlin, sweet dark I can dig it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 the way thom plays with his vocals in this song is what really struck me, even on first listening. all the little inflexions he changed from the live version. At first I was confused with the intro/backing mumbling-vocals, but now I feel like it makes the song perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ventriloquist Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 I figured out what he sings in Identikit. I did some audacity stuff and made the backing vocals much louder. He sings "a moon shaped pool, a moon shaped pool. I wanna know if you love/want/know me" (he switches between these three words) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

long fork Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 at the end of the song, after he says "have you had enough of me" does he say "sweet dark" or "sweet darlin"? I'm guessing the former nah, he says "sweet deck" ala the title of the track Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theodor Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 Someone mentioned that this album is like going into the mountains in the Kid A cover - which is how Thom has perceived Amnesiac. (http://citizeninsane.eu/s2001-06Mojo.htm, ctrl+f 'Fuck knows') I get a lot of Amnesiac vibes from this album actually, the dense orchestral wooziness. If this alphabetical tracklisting really doesn't matter on AMSP, then I'm starting to wonder about the playlist possibilities. I've never got the OKC/IR thing, but I reckon there's definitely potential for Amoonsiac Shaped Pool (sorrynotsorry). I felt it was like walking out the forest from king of limbs and finding urban life and people, after some time of trying to live with them, its got that vibe but as if they've landed back on planet earth... like a sudden realisation after dreaming about forests, ghosts and deserted natural places.. (c'mon it opens with a birdsong tape ripped from give up the ghost... which i always thought was there for some reason on that song, but definitely on this one...i was thinking this is the expected king of limbs part 2 people wanted in 2011, because it easily could have been, i don't think it could have been from kid a sessions at all) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grieves Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 the crashing dub sound towards the end of decks dark is really hitting the spot too fuck this is just a beautifully constructed song from beginning to end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FictionalCharacter Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 tbh, how to disappear - even tho i love it - is stupendously emo. This may be my proudest moment on this board. I'm discovering new things on this album every listen. It took like four listens before anything actually registered. For fuck's sake, it's great.
