Allright so finally after all these years, we have the last tracks from "...And In Closing" So what does everyone think about them? And how the hell were these tracks found?

Russel boguht the tape off of ebay and then uploaded them to the community. Which was awesome.

 

Personally I really like the tracks, particularly Full oon in Pisces. I know a lot of people don't, but the folky kinda feel is just really nice and I enjoy that aspect in Matt's earlier work quite a bit.

Pretty much. Especially the awesome part.

 

I like William Sits in Avalon a little too much...I'd always kind of liked the lyrics and I'm glad the song fits them. I expected it to be slow though, and the Jangolier to be more upbeat...I also expected Full Moon in Pisces to not be great. I'm glad that wasn't the case.

 

I've also long been a fan of the folky feel of his earlier music. I really like Last Poem's Poet ;)

 

 

EDIT: You know, for like six months I searched eBay for demos at least once a week. From around June when I first heard of History Teacher (I'm a late bloomer...) to December when I found And In Closing about 1.5 weeks before Xmas. In all honesty, it was an exercise in obsession.

I think it's all pretty good stuff, the Jangolier is my favorite of the bunch, when not including the 2 tracks which were available on NF before the rest became available. Overall, I think Message to God is the best.

I remember posting a link to one of the tapes being auctioned off on Ebay, anyone know what happened to that one anyway?

When abouts was that?

 

No clue man...

Probably back in about September...

I may remember that.

 

But yeah, I don't know what happened to it. I know I didn't bid due to lack of funds.
