fact: there cannot be a top 10 only a top 200

Post **Posted:** Thu May 28, 2015 12:56 am

Yeah I can't bother with a list. If feel like I was disowning my child by not including a song on the list.

Brothersport might also be my #1 tho.

Does anybody remember the name of the place where they filmed the footage for Working and Tantrum Barb?

Post **Posted:** Thu May 28, 2015 11:55 pm

On my deathbed I will write a Top 100 list, with a thinkpiece on each of the top 10 and elucidation for 11-50. And then a one-line commentary on the rest. And the list will be scattered with my favourite AnCo pictures, yrics, as well as some choice pull-quotes. It will be my magnum opus.

It's boulder field @ hickory run state park in PA. I went last October. Sad fact: the rock that Noah played drums on is right next to a boulder that someone spray painted "woop woop ICP" on. That's how you'll know you're in the right spot.

acting like you dont know exactly who wrote "woop woop ICP" on that boulder

My friend who's only familiar with post-Sung Tongs AC just listened to Untitled from Spirit for the first time. He said that the feedback noises reminded him of the suction tube that the dentist puts in your mouth, just something about the way the signal randomly cuts out at times. I have to say I can actually hear the comparison strangely enough, but I never would've made that connection in a million years

Post **Posted:** Tue Jun 02, 2015 11:03 am

I saw a comparison somewhere (think it was last fm) that it sounds like an alien being horribly tortured. Always loved that comparison.

Post **Posted:** Wed Jun 03, 2015 9:08 pm

I think that's more of a criticism than a comparison, because who's actually heard an alien being tortured before? Strange to think about

Post **Posted:** Wed Jun 03, 2015 9:51 pm

Nah I heard it once that Untitled sounds like a demon being tortured by a higher power.

P accurate

Everyone's favorite EP?

Mine's Water Curses, followed closely by FBK. I think they both sound unlike anything else they have done, even more than the other EPs.

edit: hi mom?

Post **Posted:** Thu Jun 04, 2015 12:58 am

FBK followed by Water Curses. Those EPs are both perfect though.

Post **Posted:** Thu Jun 04, 2015 1:02 am

FBK, no doubt. Graze is my all time jam since I used to wake up and sing that song all the time.

Prospect Hummer til i die

Post **Posted:** Thu Jun 04, 2015 2:26 am

was hoping someone would say prospect hummer. it is really cool. but fall be kind is where it's at. the day it freebirded i had an essay due to write about what defines american culture. so i wrote about fall be kind. that album hit me so hard. what would i want sky, graze, and i think i can are such dope tracks.

Post **Posted:** Thu Jun 04, 2015 5:37 am

Yeah FBK is legendary... I actually think it's the best piece of music in the AnCosphere to induct new listeners. Such a refined sound.

But Water Curses is so psychedelic, I love it.

edit: oh and I never could get 100% into Prospect Hummer... it's sugary sweet but it's short and just hits me as an afterthought compared to the others.

Post **Posted:** Thu Jun 04, 2015 12:42 pm

i actually believe that the water curses ep is the greatest release of music everi dont rank except for that ep and its at the top of everything. #1

Post **Posted:** Thu Jun 04, 2015 3:07 pm

I can't explain what it is about Prospect Hummer, I love the way the guitars in It's You just totally envelop you. and I love the sequencing, Learning how to dive is so perfect after Baleen sample. also Visiting Friends is one of my fav AC songs and baleen sample feels like it's cut from the same cloth as that song

I do love FBK and Water Curses a ton too, but for different reasons. Hard to compare
