I'm working on a couple posts, one short, one not as such, but I wanted to stop by and say this.
If you have access to a surround sound system, especially a 5.1, you need to pick up the new DVD version of The Soft Bulletin. Your ears and head will thank you for it.*
(*Not literally. If your ears and/or head actually do thank you, please consult a doctor.)
Seriously, though. I liked it so much that I'll forgive them for packaging it with the same damn CD (complete with Mokran remixes and "Spiderbite" instead of "Slow Motion").

dragonfly wants a piece of pie
cheruzzel: i tried downloading the new built to spill...
nsa656: Oh, I think I downloaded that but never listened to it
cheruzzel: and only got one song, so i was listening to it, and it was
good but there was this crazy sample throughout it (of what sounds like a rastafarian shouting something about "my town"). and i was
thinking "wow, this is totally weird for a built to spill song, but
strangely good. i found out later that it's not actually in the song,
just some digital tag inserted into it to combat downloading, i guess.
problem is, i think it makes the song better
nsa656: Haha
nsa656: Yeah, that sort of thing usually pops up on promo copies of rap albums
cheruzzel: exactly
cheruzzel: but since i only had one track, it didn't occur to me that it
was in the others
nsa656: It's like "YO THIS IS THE NEW SHIT FROM PIMPY Q DOWNLOADING
BLOOOOOOWS"
nsa656: That's pretty funny
cheruzzel: the kicker is that the sample always occurs at the right
moments, especially the first time
nsa656: Weeeeird
cheruzzel wants to send file C:\Documents and
Settings\daj156\Desktop\DC temp\built to spill - you in reverse promo

cheruzzel: i should just copy this convo and blog it

nsa656: That could be it too
