  1. I was thinking whether it warranted its own topic, then figured I'd just leave it in here; what songs have surprised you, either positively or negatively?

    NLOTH is probably the only song I think could have been a bit more, although that said I still really like it. I think it needs to have a bit more pace and intensity. However, I'll Go Crazy... and Unknown Caller have really struck a chord with me - I mean, all the stuff that had been bandied about regarding the songs' content had made me feel a bit apprehensive (I mean, the former has one of the clunkiest song names the band have ever come up with and a song about random text messages, on the outset, doesn't bode well in my books) but both have really got me intrigued. I'll Go Crazy... is so uplifting whilst Unknown Caller has a real sense of epic majesty, even though it's quite slow in itself.

    Great album though - the band have really done themselves proud in my books. I had always said I had no expectations and as a result I've been pleasantly surprised by what they've thrown forward because I had nothing to compare or measure it up to.

    Nice post Harry. I haven't brought myself to download my thought yet.
  3. I've just bought the box set .... WOW!
    The book, the poster, the cover of the CD .... excellent!
    I've been reading the book and I like it very much, and I have seen a few scenes from Linear, and I love it too.
    I haven't disappointed.

    P.S.: The girl, who is starring during Being Born and in the start of Magnificent in Linear, is gorgeous .
  4. I am very impressed with Stand Up Comedy..!! Great song and maybe the best live played song of the album ??
  5. any answers to `i`m ok by myself`??...bonus track???

  9. sorry i have no idea what you are on about...is there a bonus track or not??


  10. linear is a film u get with the Box set, and songs from nloth r played in the background to a silent movie, and when goyb is played in this movie, their r these ladies with mostaches dancing. its very weird.

    i agree with u about nloth - the song, could have been more, should have been a mix between the album version and the number 2 version.
