that's ridiculous bunnymilk why did you do that?

EDIT: but yeah atari did great and this is good other than magic bullet. I only heard the end of Sabotage it was awesome.

it's time to come clean... i am the dog obeys.

 

Couch your Buddy Holly is haunting.

couch those vocals were fab.

puppetmaster Nothing Compares 2 U turned out way better than Achy Breaky but mostly because Achy Breaky sucked to begin with.

that was a v.good album my favs were both creep covers, iris and sabotage, although buddy holly and all stars were really nice too, and overall the whole album was good. nice going!

so ptizzle wheres my premium :laughs:

ALERT! ALERT! REVIEW! REVIEW!

Chef: Man  you have the AMAZING ABILITY to make these radio shows a lot more FUN than just PLAY MUSIC/LISTEN. Ten thumbsu p.

Sabotage: This is nuts man. PTizzle I have already told you that I am VERY IMPRESS with this. I wasn't sure if you could pull off the larynx abuse but you really went all out with it. There is also a very subtle point in the late end of the song where it sounds like you are singing and I just want to say this is my favourite part of this song. Would very much like to work with you again in the future.

All Star: This is psychadelically insane. It starts off really jazzy and just builds into this crazy spaced out acid jazz bonanza! I really enjoyed this tune and although it feels a little lounge I think you did a great job with it. You have this echo thing going on as the song progresses that is pretty sweet.

Achy Breaky Heart: Wow, I didn't really know what to expect from this. I really hate the original song so I had very low expectations but you really pulled through man. You have this haunting voice and these contemporary drums kick in over this dark johnny cash-esque verse to produce something pretty amazing. The chorus seems to have a more psychadelic down-tempo rock vibe to it and I think this is probably overall one of my TOP THUMBS UP SONGS from the album, despite being probably the only song I wasn't looking forward to at all.

Mr Jones and Me: Honestly I didn't enjoy this so much. I am not a big fan of Counting Crows and maybe this is why, it is just not a well fitting taste to my musical palette as panda would put it. Whoever is singing (I assume Harry Manback) your voice really reminds me of that girl-dude from Placebo and the guitar is pretty solid. I mean it is not a BAD song I just didn't enjoy it very much. It just seemed to brush over me a bit.

Creep (atari): Dude did you sing this with a collapsed lung? If so I have to give you +20 more points, this is really fucking cool. It is amazingly well produced and you have a pretty cracking voice. I was waiting for the HIGH NOTES to really see what you did and you handled them pretty smoothly. There was no BREAKING HICCUPS and when the song really kicked in with the distortion guitar you did it pretty confidently. Well done! Good Job!

Good Riddance: Man DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT. I could hear a lead playing the vocal line VERY FAINTLY in the background and it felt like a very strange synth midi take on something entirely different. I mean definitely points for thinking outside the box but I didn't really enjoy it very much I'm afraid. It just seemed like a complete misplace of style and I know I'm not really one to talk but WELP THERE YOU GO.

Buddy Holly: This is great. The piano is really haunting and the song feels like it has these disjointing hiccups that kind of add to the atmosphere. (Are they actual mistakes I don't know?) but this is a very nice sounding ambient take on something that is particularly upbeat. I would categorise this into my filing system of HAPPY/SAD songs. I think you manage to grasp the base fundementals of each mood and this is mastership music making. Chups.

Iris: This song brings back fond memories of watching meg ryan ride a bike into a truck. Do you remember that film where nick cage is an angel and meg ryan dies? that's what this song is about, meg ryan dying. I didn't really get it, if he is an angel and she dies doesn't that mean they get to be together? why is it so frackin sad!!! Anyway you took this song with GUSTO but I felt you were holding back on the vocals a little bit. The vocals were good but I felt you were kind of holding back on the POWER for fear of maybe being too loud and your neighbours might hear? Musically this is very strategically well put together and it is top quality production. The guitar is very well defined and I know you had reservations about drum programming but I think this is something you can be very proud of!

Nothing Compares 2U: Compared to Achy Breaky Heart the vocals seem really muffled on this song. I don't know if you messed around with your setup but I just wanted to mention that the production quality is kind of a step down. I think on IRC I said something similar to this: "It feels like a very cool lo-fi garage band version of the original. I think if the original never existed this would be a very good song!" I mean it is definitely different (are you beatboxing?) I also think it was a valiant effort to hit the high notes. You kept the song in key pretty well throughout it's entirety, I was very worried you would try and hit TOO HIGH and it would kill it a little bit. Very good though!

Shine: Yeah I didn't enjoy this one so much. The drums feel very weak and the vocals seem spaced/muffled. They aren't too tight and either there is some kind of strange reverb on a bad recording or what I don't know but the song is TIGHT, it just felt like the recording quality let it down a bit. What I can give you TOP MARKS for though is a killer guitar solo. I was headbanging,,, i assure you.

Creep (cpouch): Wow, this is terrible... What the fuck, who put this on the album?

Overall: Well done everyone who submit a song, massive respect just for going out there and taking the time and effort to put something out and keeping the troubadours alive after all this time. You guys are the best and where I gave up a long time ago we wouldn't have awesome TROUB NIGHTS like this without you. Big FUCK YOU to Lars who didn't submit a song for the first time ever? Yeah, frack off buddy you're not welcome on troubs albums anymore. Also couch I am joking, creep was really good. Top notch guys, high five, chups, you guys are the best.

Can I have premium now?
