Cool chords, but the singer does nothing with them. Plus again the silly solo effected guitar to cover the fact lack of melody. I'm going to let the whole thing play through now and I'll post an update if I change my opinion. For now, definately not the greatest album produced by man. _________________ www.theparksmedia.com Posted: Thu Dec 09, 2004 10:16 am narlus Dog House   Joined: Sep 8, 2002 Posts: 1413 Location: 53.4° N 6.2° W nels cline was a good addition to the band. i don't have much of his previous work, but what i've heard i've liked. _________________ Yuppie wrote: Flames make everything faster, stronger, and better.

Hopefully your next post is in better taste You have to let us know what you think IS good, btw. Nels Cline IS the man. I love that guy.

Under most of the vocals it's boring chords, and then there are some really interesting chords thrown in on just piano or guitar, and then its back to 1 or 2 chords for like 2 minutes of guitar noodling, and then back to the boring vocal line. Admittedly I have odd taste in music. I've mentioned it before, and I know it... _________________ www.theparksmedia.com Re: A Ghost is Born....
