  2. LOL, Future Pop? That's interesting.

    Wish I could read these reviews... But then I'll be writing a review in Chinese which probably no one here could understand!

  3. Haha I've just attempted to read all of those, and understood about every other word. Yet another reminder that my German isn't as good as I think it is!

  4. Yes, what does that mean, Future Pop?

  5. The reviews are all pretty silly, I think. Future Pop means nothing. There are loops in some of the songs which forces the Reviewer to call it Future Pop. Bands like Cranes, Bloc Party etc. are also defined as Future Pop as well as some new Goth acts like IAMX or Crüxshadows. It's has no meaning at all...

    Oh, I've got the whole thing in my hands now. Sounds even better than the leaks. :D

  9. nicole,

    "perry wasn´t that good at the guitar ever!!!!"

    i wonder if this was because he wasn't given a moment to shine or if he was just a subpar player...

  10. perry was actually pretty damn good so i don't know wtf you're both talking about.
    and in my opinion, another guitar would be really nice right now.

  11. sofia,

    yes...he could play the guitar...but most of his duties were background effects...there was really nothing that he did on stage that made me think he was "pretty damn good"

    but i still appreciate his place...

  12. and when i say "background effects", i mean just the underlying guitar parts. it's the reason why FTEOTDGS suffered live from 1993-2005

  13. And watch perry playing on trilogy,he seemed very concentrated and isolated!

  14. OOOOps,just recognized that i have posted as nicole,she is my girlfriend and was locked on our computer.....so it was me prefering porls play to perrys!!!!
    I saw them 4 times playing live since 1987(yes!)i missed the bloodflowers tour cause i had no money at all at that time....but in 2004 i saw them live again and it was
    a thinner sound,perrys guitars were really,hmmm,lets say motivated.Or say it postive:does anyone think the 4tour was as it was without porl? Just watch those guys playing today and on trilogy!!!!And now,knifes out,you perry friends;)

    P.S. don`t get me wrong,perry is a nice and good looking guy,but porl is bettre in both!!!AND THE ALBUM IS FUKKING BRILLIANT!!!!
