Well we’re obviously very bored here since there’s nothing going on and we’ve resorted to wondering what kind of drugs Simon uses and how much money he has. So just thought I’d ask – favorite younger brother track?
Mine would be Weird on A Monday Night and Scanner. WoAMN for the spaciness, the Alice in Wonderland samples, and those orchestra hits towards the end that sound like they’re out of a 90’s sci-fi movie. Scanner for the panning sounds at the beginning, that bass kick, and the melody throughout.
The entire first album rocks hard. From Weird on a Monday Night all the way through Magic Monkey Juice is just wonderful. The last 3 are okay, but the first 7 are amazing.
If I HAD to pick, I’d go with Weird on a Monday Night but there are a couple others that may overtake it with a little more time.
Off the second album, I can say Elephant Machine is my favorite.
I’d probably say Weird On A Monday Night and Evil & Harm off of Flock of Bleeps, also possibly Bedtime Story, not so much as a favorite track, but it fits perfectly with my mood by the end of the album, which is like wow what a trip.
From Last Days of Gravity, I’d say Elephant Machine and All I Want (except for the ending, could’ve done without that bit :wink: )
From the first:
Evil & Harm (looove those bleep effects in the vocal)
Crumblenaut (looove the drum beat, hate that goofy vocal though)
From the second:
Your Friends Are Scary (beginning makes me feel like on an acid trip’s peak )
Sleepwalker Part 2 (makes me yearn to take a car ride at night while baked)
I am a Freak (for all it’s psychedelic vigour)
I’ll go with the less instrumental thus more electronic tracks Scanner and Dwarves as my faves. 8)
Weird on a Monday Night is awsum too.
The second album never got into heavy rotation like the first one did, even though I enjoy it every time i listen to it. I’m thrilled to hear what YB will have evolved to with their third album.
