    wow :shock:

    I quite like this one, although his scream of ‘RADIOOO\" at around 5.20 is a little weak in comparison!

    I just checked the balloon site again. A whole bunch landed in the same place near Tuscaloosa.

    also \"we found your balloon this evening in our pasture\" :)

    Go to sp.com. Didn’t we make that clear with the annoying preorder page?[/quote:115vaxop]

    I barely ever go to the homepage :?

    with the shipping costs, the Gish vinyl is $42 US…that’s about $NZ53, but in the store here they are $40!

    maybe they’ll have the vinyl in time, but I would have thought they’d put it out at the same time as the CD…hmmm

    At first I didn’t like this, with the choir, clapping, and lyrics – blechhhh – and I think it’s a piss-take because the Olympic spirit is NOT about winning:

    \"I’M GONNA WINNNN….YES I’M GONNA WINNNN….\"

    from about 3.50 though, HOLY CRAP MUSE ROCK ONCE AGAIN 8)

    just wish they had done that for most of the song. :roll:

    No vinyl available in NZ yet…I’ve checked the major music stores here (there’s 2).
    It’s even listed first on this site: http://www.realgroovy.co.nz/
    I see Linkin Park posters everywhere but nothing for SP :(

    and yes, very well written and researched article there.

    cool – I haven’t got the SD and Gish reissues…but I quite like the look of this one!

    maybe they are making an assumption about the vinyl? hmmm

    ah, I didn’t win that trip to Fuji Rock :(

    oh well, there are rumours that he will make it to NZ this year…

    he seems to keep going back and forth from London/Europe and the US for now:

    I wrote in French first, not really knowing what I was writing, turns out it almost makes sense.

    Pourquoi je demande
    Le ciel est bleu
    Pourquoi est-ce que
    Tu a rire moi?
    Je ne sais de toute le monde
    Mais sur tres le mot qui vas
    C’est rien de plus

    I ask why
    The sky is blue
    Why is it that
    You had me laughing?
    I do not know any of the world
    But on the very word go
    This is nothing more

    I don’t think Google translate got it quite right either….

    Well done Geo on promoting the page!

    If it hasn’t been thought of or designed into the new forum yet – a multiquote button would be useful!

    well, after many many listening i cannot help but say that OCEANIA will be better without 3 tracks i really can’t understand:
    . The Chimera, good for an American Pie 14 soundtrack.
    . Glissandra… it’s smell like SP old school but it is not SP. Dispensable
    . Inkless, guess it is an EMI wanted to get back Hard Fans?
    the rest of the Album take place in my heart because of its maturity, its sensibility and its daring innovation in Smashing Pumpkins sound.
    i think there many people here that share this feeling!
    let me know…[/quote:a383fwkk]

    no
    I love the swirly guitars in Glissandra, and what has Inkless got to do with EMI..?
    I think it would be better without One Diamond One Heart – too ‘pop’ for SP
    also I’m now skipping listening to Wildflower – so I have my own Oceania playlist without those 2 songs :)

    now I have to go and listen to that playlist as I haven’t listened for a whole 3 days…. :P

    ^^ lucky California people :P

    Which reminds me I have a double-album of Godspeed, You Black Emperor, and it contains 4 songs only. Each of them 20 to 25 minutes long… Hmmm… Whatever.[/quote:2c9smxvh]

    I have an ‘EP’ (digital) of a band called Jakob, which is made up of one song of 29 minutes :)

    If that’s punk then so is early Deftones…

    So, Arthur and Bram….what do you value?

    Yes, I value punk songs for what they mostly are: wake up calls, and fun to dance to like crazy (when I was younger :P).[/quote:1ezgf4wm]

    yeah, a lot of them are wake up calls, I am just not a fan of the style.
    I did like a couple of songs by Big Audio Dynamite but I wouldn’t really call it punk…

    well, I guess Doomsday Clock was not promoted in NZ at all, I just remember Tarantula being the first single. The radio stations here only play 90’s SP ‘hits’ anyway… :roll:

    So were both Tarantula and Doomsday Clock used as promos at the same time? And then Tarantula chosen as the single?
    Would be nice to have a single released from Oceania, but yeah, it looks like they’re just having the album promoted using The Celestials.

    Tarantula was definitely the first song…quite a lot of promotion around it – there was a little competition where people could edit and make their own version of the Tarantula video…
