I will never understand why people don't like Live It Out. I don't think there's anything to complain about on the record, and I think it's head and shoulders above Old School Underground. I'm super cereal.
And I didn't say Knives... isn't a good record. I actually quite like it, even if that the plodding tempo kind of drags the album down about halfway through the album. Like I said though, it's just something you can't listen to whenever you want. It's an overall quiet record, and should only be put on times when you actually want to relax.
And yes, better than Amy Milan's record by a mile.

i thought Emily's record was leaked ages ago. hmm.
i personally like the songs on Live It Out much more than the ones on Old World... I can't even listen to their 1st album anymore. if i do, i end up skipping songs.

i've had it for about two weeks, maybe not quite that.
you don't happen to have an Oink invite with no one in line do you?
i've got a few leaks i can pass along on the off chance they aren't already up there.

I bought the album on the weekend. It's basically Metric without any fast pace songs. I've only given it a couple listens but so far it ranks below Feist and Amy's solo albums in my opinion.
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.

See.... I don't really like Fiest or Amy, so I'm thinking I should get it cause I like metric. But I shouldn't cause I probably wont like it.

well you're both going to hell.
so now that that's settled, I would say that Matthew Good is better than Feist, but Feist is the best female soloist I've ever heard.

Feist is amazing. A bit overrated though.
Emily Haines' Solo disc is pretty good, it grows on you a lot. If you're looking for Metric though look elsewhere. It's really really slow paced and mostly piano driven. You won't find a fast song on it. My only complaint is it all blends together to easily.
Still I enjoy it more all the time, and she has some great piano pieces in there. They're really simple but sound beautiful.

I thought it sounded like all of Metric's slow songs. I guess that's what I meant by it sounding like Metric without the fast tempo. every so often listening to it you expect her to break into something fast and catchy.
