From the Archives 8
Re: From the Archives 8
If 7 had been labelled an Environments album (maybe minus War Machines) I don't think anybody would have questioned it.
Re: From the Archives 8
Yeah, and Env3 could be labelled as an archive release, espescially everything after Recollection...

Hmm, no, Absolution, The Oldest Lady, The Silent Place, Surface Water and Heart Sick Chord were new recordings.
Re: From the Archives 8
Well, I meant more like soundwise. Those gloomy dark, rather beat-driven tracks that all sound very mid-to-late-90ies to me give the album an 'archive'-feel somehow. Btw I didn't knew Absolution, Surface Waters and Silent Place were new tracks. They all sound very ISDN/Dead Cities-like to me.

Yeah, they definitely have a similar vibe. To me Absolution kind of feels like an update of a Dead Cities era track - there's more of a digital sheen to it which a lot of Environments 3 has. I have the feeling this material might be slightly balanced towards Brian rather than Gaz, unlike Environments 4 and 5.
Re: From the Archives 8
I somehow have the feeling Env6 will be another one more along the lines of 'Mr. Techno' rather than amorphousy sounding stuff...but its just a feeling...
