![]() ![]() Album title: Timeless Artiste: The Watch Year: 2011 Familiarity: Never heard of them, wish I never had. Favourite track(s): The best of the worst? Maybe "Let us now make love?" Why?: The ridiculous name of the song kicks it a notch above the others. Least favourite track(s): All of them, seriously. But if I have to choose I'll go with "soaring On". Why? Sounds like some horrible ELP/Genesis mash up. Horrible harpsichord sounding guitar or keyboard or whatever it was. 0 melody Any preconceptions prior to listening, whether good or bad? No preconceptions at all other than I thought the album cover looked kind of promising. End impression: Awful Comments: I actually didn't even hear the last 3 songs as I could not find them on Youtube but I was ok with that. I think I got enough of a feel for the album. I really disliked the vocals. Seems like they took the worst parts of Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins and combined them somehow. Too much cliche acoustic guitar arpeggios with flute on top. I hate to be too harsh about any band but this is just something I will never revisit and I hope there are no more of their albums on the list. Loved Gentle Giant and this was a disappointing plummet for me. They sound like they are probably decent on their instruments (wanted to end on a positive). Rating: 2.0 and I'm being generous. Trollheart, you were not overly harsh and I'm surprised you gave it a 2nd spin. __________________ Last edited by Moss; 04-05-2014 at 12:13 AM. |
