It is as simple as that. There is no need to come at me passive-aggressive over such a trivial post. I haven't posted anything in years and it now, for me, it seems this place hasn't changed. Ugh. Have a nice day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skuj Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 Yes, that was a lame excuse. I am sorry for being a fucking dick. (We cool, bro?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skuj Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 Anyway, the more I listen to this, the more I love it. Goddammit Thom sounds amazing - he's 54, right? And here we are, 30ish years after RH's first releases, and this work is still compelling. I hate to admit this - I had no clue that Thom/Jonny did this until I visited this nearly dead forum. And I consider myself to be "up" on music releases. (Sheesh, it's part of my fucking job!) 😄 Is this album more Thom than Jonny or vice versa? I am having immense fun trying to decide this. For me, this is upper third RH. I know it is not technically RH, but Mick and Keith are not technically the Stones, and yet, here we are!! 🤣 nowhere 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skuj Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 In fact, listening to the album, and watching some live videos, I can't help wondering if Thom's voice sounds even better than ever before. How the fuck did he do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skuj Posted July 13 Report Share Posted July 13 I now work at a record store. (Yes, I do!) We decided not to order this album because it is as expensive as fuck. I dunno....maybe that's just the distributers we deal with. Any comments from anyone regarding costs of this particular physical product? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skuj Posted July 13 Report Share Posted July 13 Fuck, lol. I'm practically the only person posting here, right after the release of this album? Farewell, MT. We had some good times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Philistine Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 I think he’s annoyed that the MB that has been pretty much dead for the last five years is still dead. In other news, I like this album, it is a nice album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, it's very hard for me to not consider this a follow-up to AMSP, even though 3 members were sipping tea somewhere. I note that (from page 1!!) some feel this is stripped back / pared down from regular old RH. I dunno. I love how no song overstays it's welcome, to my ears. (I'm looking at you, Sit Down Stand Up.) There's a lot of variety in this release. Thom sounds re-invigorated. AMSP sounded like Abbey Road to me...The End. I hope this diversion kicks RH into gear again, rather than setting them back even longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skuj Posted July 15 Report Share Posted July 15 Wow. I keep getting new awards for posting to myself. Today = a "dedication badge". Maybe I'm completely wrong in my post above. Thom now/recently speaks of new music on the way. The Smile might be much more than a one-off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
