HUM
Haven't had the chance to hear Fillet Show...from what I've heard, it's pretty hard hard to find.
Elektra 2000: Absolutely awesome songwriting. I think it peaks with
Sundress, which is just wicked crazy; the drums are all over the place, but very tight; and we even get a good bit of screaming from Matt. Like others have said, the mix wasn't nearly as good as their following albums, but still the music holds its own.
You'd Prefer An Astronaut: The mix was great, however, the overall volume was a bit low as compared with other cds. The songwriting, though, is perhaps, some of the best ever. At the very least, it is certainly unmatched by any of today's musical standards.
Downward is Heavenward: Overall mix and sound is undoubtedly of the highest caliber. If only for songs like
Why I Like The Robins and
I'd Like Your Hair Long from You'd Prefer An Astronaut, I would say that Downward is Heavenward is a better album than You'd Prefer An Astronaut. Even still, I think with songs like
Isle of the Cheetah,
If You Are To Bloom,
The Inuit Promise, and
The Scientists(being my favorite), Downward is Heavenward could possibly be their best album; all of this is only my opinion though, as I know some of my friends prefer You'd Prefer An Astronaut over Downward is Heavenward.
Just my two cents worth...
HUM = Not Crap
The Deftones rock!
