I don't believe I've ever heard this topic before...
<br>but it should be interesting. YOU HAVE TO PICK JUST ONE! It's hard I know but don't cheapen the poll <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.theatreoftragedy.com/board/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
<br>from the s/t...I dunno.
<br>I think Dying, I only feel apathy is great...really great. So I'll pick that one
<br>
<br>From Velvet...
<br>...
<br>*pulls hair out*
<br>...
<br>um, I pick On Whom the Moon Doth Shine...I guess
<br>
<br>Aegis...
<br>hm...uh, Angelique. Yeah. But it'll change by tomorrow...
<br>
<br>Musique...probably Retrospect. I love that song.
<br>
<br>and I won't include Assembly officially since the release is a little bit off but I like Play FYI

I'm hungry...

Oh yes I forgot Closure. I agree with you about And When He Falleth being the best. That's a rare example of a song sounding BETTER live. Even though I like it on the album...hearing it on the live cd was amazing.

Also here's a similar question for the band, should they choose to particpate...
<br>what songs did you have the most fun recording? are there any espesially humorous stories of how you came up with a song?

Sagoth, I think that Psy_Coma is free to choose what he likes...
<br>
<br>Well, I´ll go with "Black as the Devil Painteth", "Venus", "Musique" or "Radio" (They´re basically the same song! LOL) and "Episode" or "Envision" for Assembly
<br>
<br>I never heard the self-title album!!! <!--emo&:o--><img src='http://www.theatreoftragedy.com/board/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='ohmy.gif'><!--endemo-->)

<br>That's no problem, you're not missing out on too much. I think the songs on the self-titled could have been wicked if the production hadn't been a disaster. There are quite a few nice bits (the best/tightest songs are A Hamlet for a Slothful Vassal and A Distance There Is), but there's a lot of things that are out of time or constantly speeding up that make me wince every time I hear them. Liv's voice has also been buried well down in the mix, which is a shame, because some of her most beautiful vocal lines feature on the album. I keep thinking "demo quality" every time I hear certain songs, and for a major album release that's not good.
<br>
<br>If I could have just one request granted by the band (genie-style, LOL), I would ask that the self-titled be re-recorded in its entirety, with a good producer, to do the songwriting justice. Any chance you could do this for me, Raymond? Maybe? Pweeeeeeease? *plead* *grovel* *beg* <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.theatreoftragedy.com/board/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
<br>
<br>Okay, I know it'll never happen, but one has to ask if one is to get an answer. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.theatreoftragedy.com/board/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

Actual; I began to like the s/t more recently
<br>I don't like track 3, or I think 7, but the rest is actually quite decent...
