Mini-Review The Song Above You

^^Opal only had one album Happy Nightmare Baby (that song is there), but there's also a compilation of their early EPs, Early Recordings. I suggest to get both. I think I still have a link for Happy Nightmare, cause I sent it recently to #9 for a trade.

Woops, very sorry. I completely forgot.

About the song above:
I love the fact that it has been recorded in a bicycle tunnel. It sure gives it an extra dimension. The raw guitar is just beautiful. The singing is probably a bit too theatrical for me and I have the feeling the song isn't really going anywhere. Love the idea and the visuals, but I don't care too much about the song itself.
6m5/10

A classic for you to enjoy

Hope you can listen through the sound quality.
The videotape has got loaRAB of wow and flutter (that's real worRAB, yeah ;D)
 
Not a bad little song. nothing particularly standout except the odd percussion. Wasn't much for the voice, though. Pretty, true, but not necessarily standout. Albeit, the usage of violin, albeit minimal, was interesting.

6.5/10

From the first second, it already seems like the album it's on is a continuous album, which I really like, and I like the sound of the vocals and instrumentals too. I think I'm going to have to check this out! 8/10

This song had plenty of rhythm while remaining catchy and still offered lots of dissonant noise. I think I might have this album somewhere on my hard drive and if I do I definitely need to give it a listen ASAP.
9/10

There was nothing really special about that song, it was ok but it isn't something I'd listen to multiple times. I'd probably forget I had it to be honest. 4/10

Meh, not a big fan of that. I'm a hge fan of banRAB like Soft Machine and Caravan but that song was just bland, repetitive and uninteresting. 4/10
