I wish the rest of the album was as good as the first three tracks
>that fucking outro to The Glow

But it is anon

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Lot of the ideas on the second half feel somewhat half-baked and it's frustrating because they could be great songs in their own if they were more developed. It doesn't really pick up until IFYS/Samurai Sword/My Warm Blood, which are made great by the story behind them more than anything.
Mount Eerie did have that unison and cohesion but lacked the peaks of The Glow (excepting a moment or two), so I'm left in the odd position where both are good but not amazing

>Mount Eerie lacked the peaks of The Glow
I don't know about that point. Mount Eerie is all emotional highs and lows.
>>64775739
I'd argue that it picks up around I am Bored or I Felt My Size, since the latter talks about him realizing that he's small compared to the universe, therefore coming to terms that I Felt Your Shape covered.

I suppose it is more extreme in its emotional and conceptual expressions but I'm just speaking about personal impact. I entirely acknowledge how that album could be perfect and to be fair I like it (and would give it a 10 if ratings were based on appreciation alone), but ti doesn't hit me as much as the best moments off The Glow
>>64775938
That's a fair comment, and I'll revise my statement to agree with you
I just really adore IFYS as a song so that sticks out to me in a (deliberately, perhaps) barren second half
>>64775986
Yeah, when I think about it, if they cut out a few tracks from The Glow, it could be a little stronger. Like I am Cold or something
>tfw this album made you look up place tickets to Washington
I hate Florida
HOW THE FUCK DID PHIL DO THE GUITAR DISTORTION ON THE GLOW PT. 2, I WANT TO BE COLD AND SAMURAI BLOOD?
>>64776360
It's actually pretty easy, allow a bit of clipping, make sure your bass is nice and fat and distorted too, and just use a shitton of fuzz and layering, as well as EQing to taste
>>64776360
>>64776416
That's not it at all you fuck. It's not just simple distortion
It sounds like some kind of completely overdriven yet compressed acoustic guitar
>>64775652
this
It's a dumb question, but are there any albums that sound like the outro?
>>64776762
Forms of Paper, maybe?
Anyone else here thinks Samurai Sword is the best song on this album?
>>64777602
>mfw the tape break before Phil starts singing
what are some similar albums to this and pic related?
