Max sings?
- They Ate Their Macaroons in Silence
Why would he make Sparta sound the same as ATDI? It was a completely different band.

Boner but I still miss Isis. :(

I enjoyed this. Looking forward to Pink Floppy Dicks.
Sounds like Gavin singing with Interpol. Sorta. Not great, though certainly not as bad as I was expecting. Sounded like it could have been a CWA b-side.
Already own all of the Smiths albums. No need to buy this one.
I’m not impressed by this. Especially from a band of this caliber. I hope the rest of the album is more interesting.
no dredg. go the other way!
Yikes. Dredg is amazing….this song is not.
wow, this is so bland. i even grew to like the blander songs on their last album, but this is so ignorable that it’s just not going to happen.
you guys are crazy, the song’s awesome. They go a different direction with every album. I had a feeling the album was going to sound this way, and I’m ok with it. It’s one song, the rest of the album could be different, but with Dan Nakamura producing I expected something poppy.
This is the best song U2′s ever made
There is a serious lack of emotion in his singing on this track…..already my least favorite song on the new record.
sounds like they just gave up on this one.
This is not the type of song that really got me into Dredg.It’s definately the pop / rock side of Dredg – thus sounds kind of generic.Think U2 would absolutely be overjoyed if they came up with a song like this after the drivel they mostly come out with these days though.Also get the Interpol sound comparison’s, although with a singer who actually sounds like he’s at least slightly interested in what he’s singing about.Not Gavin’s most convincing performance though.Hope the rest of the album isn’t like this – danceable post-punk revival type sound.That sound is going through a slow death, although still with it’s followers.
Will this track get attention from the general media to be played along side tracks like the Killers & Kings of Leon etc.Without the backing of a Major label to hype it I doubt it – would love Dredg to at least get a little more attention.Will this track get them that though ??????
Little flat upon first listen, not as bad the 2nd. I’m wondering- Did Dino forget how to slay at the drums, or did Dan replace him?

Not impressed, now where’s my Gold Cobra?
theres a few songs like this in their back catalogue maybe the rest of the cd will be dark and blustery but if not then i do not get the cover art one bit. still cant wait for the cd to come out
One can only hope this is the worst track on Pink Floppy Dicks lol.
Is this Fully mastered and produced?
Song is awesome. I like the direction they took. It’s catchy and beautiful. And the sound isn’t all that different from their last couple of albums.
First of all, there is no way that this is a final mix. Second, I’m holding hope that this song is merely the “Information” of this record. (Pink Floppy Dicks)
Hoping the rest of the CD is better. This isn’t all that great by Dan or dredgs standards.
Background noise at it’s best…..roll on the rest of the tracks,
@ southpawchew: I doubt it……..
No matter what all you music nazi’s say, I like this song. It’s a little straight ahead for them, but I enjoy the poppy aspect of Dredg. You guys need to stop fucking hating on everything.
^ that. @infinitethird “Information” is a great song btw
I like this song. I normally hate listening to “singles” and such that the band releases before their CD comes out. I’m a big picture sorta person and I normally like the flow between songs. But I found myself humming it to myself after listening for the 2nd time. I can’t wait for Pink Floppy Dicks…
It’d be awesome if they put pink floppy dicks as a hidden song title the songs not bad I don’t mind it and completely mixed itd be better
good song. i did think it would have more bells and jingles with Dan on the board, but eh. good song.
I like this type of Dredg – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gk73V7KfyXA&feature=related
Kinda sounds like MUSE without the killer guitar tones. I don’t hate it but I don’t love it either.
@ Surly, me too!
that….was depressing. yea i’m just gonna listen to el cielo on shuffle and pretend it’s the new cd.
on a side note, that across the sun band is fuckin AWFUL. i was misled by flashy sidebars dammit.
Anyone who is familiar with Dan Nakamura knows exactly what this album going to sound like. It’s going to be dark-poppy Dredg. I’m glad there are bands around like Dredg that switch it up, and try new things instead of worrying about selling units. You haven’t heard he last of the Leitotif, El Cielo-ish Dredg. Some people were upset after Catch Without Arms came out, but then they released the last album and it was more like the older stuff. I like every album, some more than others, but you can’t deny they are true artists and whatever they put out will still be better than 95% of the cookie-cutter shit you hear today,
jay… you summed up Dredg perfectly. It is a bit more poppy than i wanted. But if i wanted to hear some more songs that sounded like Leitmotif…. i will throw Leitmotif into the ol disc player.
I love all 4 albums of theirs. but this new song is the worst song I’ve heard so far. hopefully the rest of Pink Floppy Dicks will be better and this is more of a transition song to a bigger picture.
