ONE love, blood, life
I bought it, I was only able to listen to two of the LPs at the same time. It was kind of neat.
I like their early stuff too. Not nearly as much as what came later, but it's got a cool Jesus and Mary Chain thing happening.
Just finished The Castle and I agree. That song was excellent. As is the album. I'm really happy.On first listen I like The Castle more than How??
First impression: I don't care much for this. Not yet, anyway.
It's a weird album because it has the haze and mood of The Terror, but sweetens it up a bit with some sparkling melodies from time to time. That's an interesting progression but, unfortunately, it takes an enormous nosedive lyrically and thematically. Part of what made The Terror such a powerful, enveloping piece of work was its sense of purpose and brave dedication to maintaining an atmosphere that limited replay value but strengthened its message. Conversely, I'm not sure what Oczy Mlody is trying to say. It's like they felt they needed to put an album out but didn't have any real reason to, so they stayed in a similar headspace to the last album but tried to stretch out from it just a bit.
