[kj] good news on IE

[fluw]

Your characterization is quite a simplistic version of all the comments
really it doesn't accurate characterize any negative comments.

 

 I for one would hate it if the new music was throwback to anything from
their past. However, something new that is comprised of all that they are
best at? That would be ideal.

 

In fact that is what Youth and Jaz have been promising nearly ever time they
open their mouths. And thus far what we have heard hasn't quite matched the
company hyperbole. That is all anyone in critic has pointed out.

 

My guess is - most likely - if the album is half of what it could be with
this line up - most gatherers will be fine with it.

I agree w/Oliver. While it may not be the most complex, symphonic, deep, or
80s throwback track ever made, it is a nice catchy (and simple, which I
don't mind) song. People seem to either be overanalyzing the
production/sound/song structure, or whining that it doesn't sound exactly
like on of their 80s albums.

True, dat. 

There's like 70% bitching and moaning and quibbling over every single new
thing they crank out (remember the Geordie demos?) and yet -- damn, it's 31
or 32 years later -- we are lucky they are still cranking stuff out. And,
like I said, I actually like a lot of this stuff. "In Excelsis" just threw
me for a loop. But, again, after 4 listens, even that has kinda grown on me!
