Sass, you are a legend. Think I've still got the titles all over the shop

I'm still confused about which one is which... Southbound's the only one I'm actually sure about.

Luckily the phrase "they're all good" applies

So we're sure now that Mary is the one with all the 'ha's in? Before it was thought that one was Radioactive?

[jeffica]

I think so, but that's only cause the first bit sounds like he's saying "Mary"...

And Immortals is the bad quality one isn't it?

So that leaves the one with the disturbing lyrics (according to my poor ears) as Radioactive... Either way that one doesn't seem to have any of the titles we know as a lyric, unless I missed it

[Deleted]

It is indeed the low quality one.

Haha, I haven't really been able to make out many of the lyrics, are they really messed up?

[jeffica]

Not really, I think it's just my ears

Sav and I had a crack at it in the lyrics thread, for some reason I hear "it's in the water, it's in the stomach" to the exclusion of all else but I sincerely hope I'm wrong!
There are some really nice bits in that one too though

[Deleted]

I'm crap at deciphering lyrics. I still don't know several of the ones from the other albums

[jeffica]

Neither, I make up my own!

Curses on the southern accent

Although apparently it's quite close to a kiwi accent (I think it's bollocks but you never know...) - maybe that's how I've been deciphering things?
I know people ring up radio stations all the time and ask for "that 'I'm on call' song by that NZ band"... idiots

[Deleted]

Admittedly I'm an expert on neither accent, but they don't sound all that alike to me!

[jeffica]

Yea I don't believe it either. Apparently people research this stuff

But it must not be true. I've never swooned at anyone's voice here.

I just get Rhys Darby in my head when I think Kiwi, and I really would not melt at his accent, sorry to say.

Oops, we've hijacked

[likelyladtom]

Argh, I don't know if I wanna listen to them or not.

Are you going to Hyde Park/V?

If you are, my gut says if you're not sure, wait till you're there.

[kultbert]

thx for that pm @thoseliptsitckkisses (have a lipstick kiss for that )

i'm listening to 'immortals' and OMG, jared strikes again on his bass. how amazing are his basslines?

awesome. i could not decide for one new song, but i'm pretty sure 'southbound' is going to be one of my favourite KOL songs EVER.

[benief]

haven't been on here in a fair while

good to see they're playing some new stuff and touring again... although they've hardly been gone long.

Immortals probably seems the most promising of the four, i like alot of what i think i'm hearing in that recording.

radioactive and mary seem alright too but i'll reserve any further judgement for a better recording.

southbound on the other hand just seems like a rather unimaginative & corny country song that's been written over a million times however that guitar line is quite pleasant.

looking forward to some better quality recordings to come up in the near future

[rogerh2o]

can anyone point me in the right direction to hear the audio of the new songs played? i checked the one link i saw to youtube, but it was pulled.

links are all there courtesy of sassmcfearless

[Deleted]

^I'll send them to you.

Or not, haha.

[Nee]

I don't know if it's on my end or not, but I tried playing Sass' audio files today, and they weren't working.

[linkin10]

i like the song Immortals

[Deleted]

It looks like there is a tumblr problem with a couple of the songs when you try to listen to them - but you can still use the download links on each post to make your own MP3s.

Also - the songs were named by the person who recorded them @ the gig - so they should all be accurate - I suppose will won't know for sure until the album comes out!
