Hah, I read "The Three E.P.'s" and I thought someone was talking about The Beta Band. Now that's real music. And good music. Yep, real good music.

Matt should grow the hair out like Underdogs days

You don't like Matt, Alan? Mind if I ask what you think of him?

Posted: **7/29/2004, 10:42 am**

There's nothing much that I think of him. He's good at what he does, don't get me wrong, and he's very intelligent (I read his journal-thingie many times, as Sean posted every single one for an entire month in the world issue forum) but his music does nothing for me.

I had his Avalanche album sent to me and it didn't impress me. I never understood the whole hooplah around him after that. Like I said, it was just good music, nothing awe-inspiring, which I was led to believe it would be.

Therefore, that's all I think of Matt Good, sadly enough.

actually of all of Matt' stuff i'd say Avalanche is least likely to be the one Alan likes. Maybe LOTGA, Underdogs, or even BM. Mostly Matthew Good Band stuff.

i was just listening to AOB, and there are a lot of songs that i really don't care for on there, but damn, there are also some exceptionally beautiful things there.

i think that "truffle pigs" may be my favorite song ever.

yeah used to HATE "The Rat That Would Be King" but now i klove it, maybe you just need to let it grow. Although i still dislike Man of Action

Posted: **7/29/2004, 1:07 pm**

oh no i freakin love "The Rat..." (though i did dislike it at first), it's so beautiful the way it builds up so slowly, and matt's voice sounds incredible on it.

yeah now i usually skip man of action, carmelina, advertising on police cars (depending on my mood), and, if i haven't got a lot of time, antipop.

advertising on police cars
man of action
rat who would be king

those are my aob favs :drool:

I love all of AoB but I sometimes skip Carmelina & Anti-Pop. My current favourite songs being Under The Influence, The Fall Of Man and Sort Of A Protest Song, but those change from time to time.

Posted: **7/29/2004, 3:53 pm**

oh i forgot under the influence, he should bring that back to the set

Posted: **7/29/2004, 3:54 pm**

I would love to see that song live. :drool:

Posted: **7/29/2004, 3:57 pm**

did you see it last year

i got to see it twice , extended ending was cool too

Posted: **7/29/2004, 4:03 pm**

No, I never saw him live until this year. I was supposed to see him last year but things got complicated and I couldn't go. I envy you.

Posted: **7/29/2004, 4:05 pm**

it blows my mind that its only been just over a year that avalanche just came out

I keep meaning to playy AoB again. I remember not really caring for it when I got it. I haven't listen to it since then.(2001)I did like the video for Anti Pop though. This is probably my least favorite MG material.

Posted: **7/30/2004, 8:02 pm**

It took me a little while to get into. For awhile I only liked one or two songs.. then I went on hiatus from it for a little bit, listened to again and realized what a kickass album it was. I've loved it ever since. :mrgreen:

So, listen again Gail.

i just started listening to Apapritions again, the radio kinda killed it for me, but wow....what an awesome song. It's just one of those songs thats just realy solid whether it was a single or not.

Posted: **8/1/2004, 6:33 pm**

yeah same for me, its so good listening to it and taking another look at the lyrics again
