Thoughts on Siren after living with it for a few days...

After listening to wftsc for a month now, I think it is probably the most solid album no has put out. That being said, there greatest songs are on other albums, however, this is the most listenable album from start to finish in my humble opinion. I think wftsc, get ready, and technique are their best three albums in terms of the entire album. But got to love substance for all those great songs, but its really a greatest hits kinda thing.

With all this adulation Barney might win best vocalist at the next Brits!

The first time I heard "Krafty" I got tingly, not from the song itself, but the fact that the new CD was close.

Part of the problem for me and initial feelings about hearing something for the first time is that due to the internet, I've heard songs before I've gotten the chance to sit down and listen to the CD (or tape or LP) right after I've bought it. The internet is one of the best inventions ever, but it has changed how much I get excited about new releases (that I've already heard).

I love WFTSC after listening to it for 5 days and some of the songs that I didn't appreciate as much when I listened to the streams, I've realized that something was lost listening to the songs on crappy computer speakers.

I've tried to avoid listening to any of the songs from the new Garbage CD, due next week. We'll see if Shirley Manson can make me tingly.
