Re: New Album Rituals
First listen to BTCS: I was in a car, fresh from the record store, enjoying the sound of Rapunzel.....I listened to the album in pieces over the course of a few days and took it in.
First listen to Everyday: Listened to it in the car, liked it because it was new dmb music, but couldn't believe that they ditched the Lillywhite album for I Did It. Fast forwarded to Everyday to at least hear the #36 redo.
First listen to Lillywhites: I was sweating at my computer downloading mp3s from a guy who sent them from his cell phone or something. I burned them to a cd and my mind exploded hearing great versions of songs I had been waiting for.
First listen to Busted Stuff: I went to a midnight launch at Tower Records, sped home, and stayed up until the 3am sucking down each track multiple times. Enjoyed it profusely.
First listen to Stand Up: I laid on my couch listening to the dual-sided cd....I kept waiting for it to get better....before I knew it, the album was almost over and I couldn't believe that THIS was the new dmb album. It was a bummer because the cover art was cool.
First listen to Big Whiskey: I quite enjoyed it, listened to it all the way through. Not mind-blowing, but better than Stand Up!!!
