I think it's more cockgaze myself.

Ha. That sounds like gays.

demonrail666 · 12.13.2008, 09:24 AM

I just listened to the album.

Derek · 12.13.2008, 10:36 AM

Pookie · 12.13.2008, 11:24 AM

Great album.

Can't add much to what's been said already.

I bought this on cassette when it came out, got a different cover to this, my favourite song of theirs at the moment is 'Watch Song',from 1000 Hurts,i love that intro!.Recently heard their album Futurist, really different, all instrumental tracks,i've still got to get the latest album tho.

greyhound is good stuff though

greedrex · 12.14.2008, 03:11 PM

^^ it's very weak

Derek · 12.14.2008, 05:08 PM

It's okay. I enjoyed the songs on it more live.

atsonicpark · 12.14.2008, 05:37 PM

I think every album is worse than the one before it. They're all great though.

greedrex · 12.14.2008, 06:30 PM

^^ well put.

If you'll excuse the vulgarity: 1000 Hurts shits all over Terraform, so this isn't true.

Greyhound was a little disappointing though.

atsonicpark · 12.14.2008, 07:57 PM

Terraform's amazing. Love the super long first song. And Copper, Rush Job, Canada, This is a Picture, and Disgrace are some of the best Shellac songs ever. 1000 Hurts, on the other hand, is filled to the brim with filler. Mama Gina and New Number Order in particular. The only song I LOVE on there is Canaveral.. maybe Shoe Song. 1000 Hurts is pretty weak.

Greyound would be a great album but it, too, has a bit too much filler, and the new version of Spoke (previously on available on a Peel Session) sounds... bad.

GravitySlips · 12.15.2008, 05:43 AM

I much prefer 1000 Hurts to Terraform, although I do like Terraform also.

Live, they're one of the best I've seen as well. Great band!

Pookie · 12.15.2008, 08:38 AM

Absolutely. Terraform has some good tracks, but 1000 Hurts is a close second to Action Park.

atsonicpark · 12.15.2008, 08:45 AM

I think Live in Tokyo is 2nd to At Action Park.
