Isn't Floodland one of the best albums ever?!

Hate to break it to you, but no it isn't. It is rather weak overall; though "Driven like the Snow" is pretty damn awesome.
(FALAA on the other hand is almost as good as DLTS on average.)

The chinese stuff is getting my vote at the minute, though. Crispy Duck, duck spring rolls, sweet and sour chicken, egg rice...

1. Dominion / Mother Russia
2. Flood I
3. Lucretia My Reflection
4. 1959
5. This Corrosion
6. Flood II
7. Driven Like The Snow
8. Never Land (a fragment)
9. Torch
10. Colours
Eh, I prefer the stuff without the drum machines and synths.

good point!markfiend wrote:FALAA is a great collection of songs, but Floodland is an album.
(I know what I mean.)
Floodland is probably my favourite album ever.
for me:
-delete this corrosion
-insert never land (full length)
= The best damn album ever!

Delete one of my favourite Sisters songs from Floodland?

I like the song itself but I don't like it on the album.
if it was released as a single to promote the album i would probably have loved it.

This Corrosion is a bit overdone by Mr. Steinman, but not that bad at all ...
Posted: 07 Oct 2008, 21:28
One Nine Five Nine is a bit drippy. At least the original vinyl didn't come with Torch, so I guess we should be grateful.
M&S Spring Rolls are very good, check them out man.

Floodland was the first album I ever bought (after hearing This Corrosion on some awful (obviously with the exception of The Sisters) hits album) and the album* remains in heavy rotation till this day.
*Floodland not the awful Hits album
A slight case of over brackets?

Good you stated 'album' in the topic title, because The Reptile House is way better, mood-wise.
This Corrosion is over-the-topness that needed to be on VT, not Floodland.
IZ.

That's it, I'm off there now to buy some chinese stuff for the neet.James Blast wrote: M&S Spring Rolls are very good, check them out man.
On a minor issue, I don't like the 1959/This Corrosion extremes of the album.
To me it's all about the whole Flood/DLTS/Dominion rolling, spreading merging, music.
But there you go... that's why we have a skip button.
Posted: 08 Oct 2008, 12:02
Floodland, the whole Floodland and nothing but Floodland.
Posted: 09 Oct 2008, 21:00
Definitely one of the best of all time! Must listen to it everyday or suffer bad withdrawals. Then again, that happens with VT & FALAA also

I do like Torch.

should I try their noodles?

I was referring to my laptop, whose name is Torch.

Had them, but I'm a rice man. I have to be careful with most prepared stuff as I HATE that proccessed garlic taste/smell.James Blast wrote:should I try their noodles?
