I totally agree. Everyone is going to be angry at me for this one, but I'm not crazy about the new Telescope Eyes. I like the new guitar solos, but it is way too fast. The original version TE was the first Eisley song I heard, and it is what made me fall in love with the band. It was slow and sad and beautiful (I am not emo, but I liked the song's dynamics). For the lauging city EP, they sped it up, but it was still pretty cool, especially the new vocal harmonizations and guitar intro/solo. This version is even faster, its almost bouncy. Maybe I am crazy, maybe everyone will hate me, maybe my opinion is totally unvalidated, but it is just how I feel. _________________ Hail to the King, baby theufbproject.com |

totally ok. it slowly grew on me... but that's just me. Now i can't remember how slow the slow ones were. i keep saying, that's probably "the sacrificial radio-ish song". Eisley was ready for it to go away. We'll see how it does. ...we're all too close to it. Stacy's voice? huh? I dunno. she's turning into a great vocalist...growing from the age 10, 13, 14 with respect to old cd's...these were tracked at 15. But she's pretty much the same as she was on Marvy Things, except she's tighter. Have you seen the band live? _________________ EisleyWebGuy "The industrialists never saw the fruit of their own labor - Post Moderism, which I now proclaim as dead.

Stacy sounds a lot more confident. Sherri sounds great, too. Stacy has made the biggest change, though. I like how you can tell them apart easier on the new recordings than in the past. Should help the new people who are still trying to figure it out. _________________ My photography:www.jamiemphoto.com You can't spell awesome without emo...backwards! -Julie definingawesome (11:44:11 PM): Eisley shivers our timbers |

Now I can tell the difference between Stacy and Sherri's voice virtually upon command... The latest songs I can remember being confused (already months ago) about are The Winter Song and surprise that Stacy sang the first verse of Silver Bugs. _________________ "You're my favorite person." - David Carradine, Kill Bill vol. 2 |

Yeah, I'm not too hot about the new recording either. Maybe I was just too used to the old one so the new one just sounds 'weird'. I bet if I had heard the latest one first and then heard a new recording with it slowed down, it'd probably sound weird as well. Whatcha gonna do, right? _________________ Life is funny, but not ha ha funny - Eels |

Most of the songs I listened to that were previous songs that had been re recorded made me sad to listen to because they were sooo different. It just seems like...I dont know. They changed to much. I mean I support them in whatever they do, but like the voices sounded like they were changed with a machine, and you could barely hear them clearly. It was very popish. I just got very sad. When I was all happy to hear they were coming out with a Cd. _________________ "Don't you think daisies are the friendliest flowers?" |

The bad polish in pop is the stuff that compresses sound and makes it brittle and saccharine. The stuff I've heard from Room Noises is more about clairty. Maybe a little more polish than I would prefer, but it's a first major label album, and it doesn't hurt to wax the car now and then. I was really worried when they started the album that it might be overproduced. I can be really anti-production, but I haven't seen it hurt any of those songs. All we know is Eisley in cheap studios, on demos, live recordings and bouncing around random producers. I really don't care much about whatever the production is, I just want the songs to be there and for it to have passion. I still don't think we should be allowed to comment until we're used to the new versions. And, we completely arent' if we've been listening to Eisley for more than a couple of months. Anyway, most people here haven't even heard a CD-quality recording yet. So hold off until April or so. Oh, and welcome to the forum. _________________ My photography:www.jamiemphoto.com You can't spell awesome without emo...backwards! -Julie definingawesome (11:44:11 PM): Eisley shivers our timbers |
