They’re the same color, it’s just not opaque. But that’s the risk we take with mock-ups. But yeah, figured they’d look like this, which is pointless if you have the Vulnicura vinyl. Glad I got the Burgundy one in the end after seeing the photos of the other variants.
When Ovule came out it was a total disappointment. Now I’m going around the house singing the ‘Aaaaan. Oooooval. Oooovule.’ bit on repeat and hearing that brass non stop inside my head. And that’s fine.
What I love about Fossora compared to Utopia is how grandiose everything feels. It sounds rich, the production is marvelous, there are layers upon layers and tons of catchy moments. A home run.
This isn’t a great album at all to me but it has a few very great songs: atopos Fossora Freefall Victimhood Ovule is good enough. The rest I don’t even care. I wish Allow and Fungal city would have been buried in Utopia
I thought at first blush that #6 would be disappointing.... then I looked at her discography and realized she hasn't had a top ten album in the UK since Volta! Utopia didn't even make the top 20. Regardless of her longtime drift towards the, um, less melodic, that still seems outrageously low for a legend of her caliber.
I imagine she makes more money off collector's editions (with tuning forks!) and touring, so actual album sales are irrelevant at this point. She is an icon and has progressed beyond the need for such trivial matters!
Excuse you, she's had some major gems--especially some of the Biophilia reworks. Legitimately one of my favorite remixes ever.
I said 'since'! [/phiphiohara] Yeah there's some cute Biophilia ones. Mostly just the Omar Souleyman mix though. Vulnicura's though... definitely I thought it was dull, I...hated the beat.
Bangerina! Also I have to admit I don't return to the Vulnicura-era remixes that often but Forest Swords' 45-minute take on Stonemilker is staggering
