My Ramallah thread (Thanks Thorp!)
I got the Ramallah CD in the mail yesterday for being the message board poster of the month. It came with an awesome poster too. Thanks to Duane &
everyone at Thorp!
I hadn't even heard one song off the CD until I got it last night. I have only listened to it 2 times though and I will definitly be listening A LOT
more, but I have what may be an unpopular opinion. I will hold it in reserve until I give it a few more days.

oh, the suspense!
so you hadn't even listened to the tracks we made available on the mp3 page? not interested, or were you holding out for the whole package?
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

I was holding out for the whole CD at once. Basicly my opinion after 2 listenings is that I like Whimper better because the songs on the new one all
seem to sound similar in style/sound/tempo. So listening to it straight through it blended together. I am a HUGE fan of everything that Rob does and I
think hes an amazing song writer so Im sure my opinion will change, but that was my first impression.
Awhile back I caught flack for saying that the mastering of the Serenity record was bad. The songs are all at differant volumes and when I pointed it
out I got scolded and told ITS HARDCORE ITS NOT ABOUT PRODUCTION! Sorry!

Ok.... So after countless listens, most of them back to back to back, I love the new Ramallah. I think that the whole thing is great. There's some
songs I like better than others, but there are none that I don't like.
I will say that "bye bye" has possibly made its way onto my list of "favorite songs of al time" I love how Rob puts a poppy twist on songs about
death, suicide, molestation etc.
Two thumbs up!

Good posting 
I think my least favorite track has to be "Brother Malcom". I like the song, it's well done.... but it is my least favorite on the cd. I don't think
it is nearly as strong as most of the other tracks.

i'm inclined to agree with you on "brother malcom". i think it's because of its place in the track listing. it's between "oscar cotton" and "the
horror and the gag," and while it's still a good song, those are considerably better songs. that's my reasoning anyway.
