I like GATS. I like this video. I was hoping for at least a tiny little taste of another song though. I think we will on the next video, or maybe even a full song before the next one. 'Tis killing me.
I'm hoping the deluxe edition of the album includes a making of GATS only. I want an in-depth look at the whole process, including Rakim's journey to LA.
That wasn't even trolling. This "LPA needs a new writer" thing is weird. We don't publish editorials or anything here and there isn't one "writer" responsible for everything on the front page ...
Just gimme the pre-order, like now! And, I hope that if there is any super deluxe package this year, it isn't overpriced like the one for ATS. 60-80 sounds cool.
Chester mentioned getting exhausted listening to the songs if I remember correctly It should be sufficient
If there are 12 but the album chimes in at like 45-50 minutes I'll be happy. But if it's like 36 I'll be disappointed. In fact if we get another song like Victimized lengthwise man its going to suck, unless it's meant to be an interlude. I'm hoping for an odd number, like 13 or 14. 12 is so fucking cliché.
Hopefully it was a figure of speech and not literally. Because it is possible to be exhausted from listening to music. It's called ear fatigue and it's a common product of the loudness war. Here's to hoping the album isn't compressed to the point of clipping. I have good faith in Andy Wallace, but clipping (i.e. audio distortion from a mix that is 'too loud') is a common thing on the radio nowadays. See "Radioactive" by Imagine Dragons (or the whole album for that matter) for a good example of a horribly clipped mix. I literally can't listen to that album at full volume in my earphones because my ears ache from how horribly distorted the album is.
