Blackfield II... the saddest album since Last Fair Deal Gone Down - Page 2

EvilVince · January 4th, 2007, 06:49 PM

Never heard of Blackfield until now. So I'm downloading both of the albums of off Soulseek. Listening to the first couple songs, this is great! I love it! (Who wouldn't?) I tell you, the Katatonia Message Board is my #1 source for new music!

N.P. Blackfield - 1,000 People

LORD DARKSOUL · January 5th, 2007, 12:15 AM

After listening to this album about 200 times, I think it's ready to enter the Hall of Supreme Sadness, and sit next to "Last Fair Deal Gone Down," "Souvlaki," and "A Fine Day To Exit," as one of the albums most likely to make me pass out in an alley covered in liquour and my own tears!

Steven Wilson understands the true sadness that is life...

200 times damn! From the songs I heard they weren't all that sad but I can agree LFDGD is very sad.

I dare you to tell me that "Some Day" doesn't make you want to eat a fistfull of sleeping pills!

I only heard the first 3 tracks.

Lord_AgathoN · January 5th, 2007, 02:40 AM

Hm i dont know. I heard it now for the second time. I love PT and like the old album. But somehow i cant get past the point saying: "HA, THERE.....THATS F´N POP!!!!" as if it is something bad (which in fact it is). ;-)

I would maybe pick "1000 People" as the song i like the most...

You don't like the fact that it's pop and the song you like most is one of the most poppy songs on the album.. You're very consistent

stefan86 · January 5th, 2007, 09:58 AM

some people have to act like their oh so hard when good music is good music regardless. either you're a music lover or you're an image person.

stefan86 · January 5th, 2007, 07:36 PM

yeah fuck pretensions. I listen and sing swedish semi-gay pop music like Cue, and it's alright. As long as I feel it, whatever

I find Steven Wilson sense of "sadness" to be very superficial, but that's just me I guess.

When I got krvnk with him last month, he spent the whole time curled up in my lap and weeping! He really does know what an empty void life is, so full of hopelessness and melancholy in an eternal night!

are you serious?

BlueSky · January 6th, 2007, 07:13 PM

listened to the whole cd and it's definitely not too sad but there are some sad moments as well as some very cheery moments. My fav track is 1,000 people by far. Too early to tell which blackfield cd I like more but nothing has come close to touching PT yet.

Anthony3 · January 6th, 2007, 09:01 PM

I like End Of The World the best.

hugot · January 7th, 2007, 04:50 AM
