Any1 Else Not Listening To The Streamed Hm Songs?

[Moonlight_Graham]

Yes i am choosing not to listen to the Hospital Music tracks Matt was been streaming on is site so it won't spoil the album for me when its released.

 

Anyone else doing to the same?

Listening to them has actually gotten me more excited and wondering how it's all gunna tie in together.

I admire your discipline. I think he tossed up Put Out Your Lights and Alert Status Red before the release of 'White Light Rock and Roll Review' and I didn't listen to them, but looking back now, it didn't make a whole lot of a difference, so I decided to avail of what he's offering this time around.

in most cases, i'd much rather wait until the album is out to hear anything from it, but in this case, i just want to hear it all NOWNOWNOW. i guess it's because being in texas, i'm not gonna get to hear the album on its actual release date, so i'd like to at least hear what i can so that when everyone is talking about it i have some idea of what it sounds like.

[saturnine]

i generally don't go out of my way to download leaks, but if it's meant to be heard when it's meant to be heard, then i have no qualms.

[marx marvelous]

I am just a fan of leaks in general, so if I don't hear an album before its release, I don't WANT to hear it.

I'm a fan of leaks in general as well...especially when they are yellow and running down your leg.

 

 

tastes alright.

what? you mean you don't have lackeys to go pick up albums for you?

[marx marvelous]

Besides, the streamed songs aren't the same versions you'll hear on the album. Unless you were CRAZY and mastered them yourself.

i haven't listened to them. it's nothing to do with 'spoiling the album'. i just hate streaming. i'll listen to it when i can listen to it all on my terms, whether it all leaks first, or i buy it.

its funny that you say that, because the last two albums i bought, i sent someone to go pick up.

i would expect no less from you, to be honest.

if it was someone else leaking the songs, i wouldn't want to hear them.

 

but since it's matt himself, i'm all for it.

[wmarskell]

i think if he chooses to add them then it is part of the process of listening to the record as a much bigger thing then a purchase from a store. if it was leaked by a sound engineer it would be a lot different.

 

this presents the album in fragments, gives you a taste and allows you to put the record together in your imagination. i am loving it. that said, i am happy he capped it at 3 songs.

 

maybe i would feel like waiting if he put up the whole record, but who knows.

Leak the whole thing! I just want to hear it I don't need the CD in my hands when that happens. Owning everything already it's not like I'm not going to buy it.

Nothing beats going to the record store, picking up an album, bringing it home...putting it in the old player...and sitting down with a coffee...without any distractions...and listening to a piece of art fresh.

 

The last album I did that with was 10,000 Days.

 

Edit: But I already listened to the streams of Hospital Music...so whateva heatha.

i use to feel that way. now my view is: nothing beats having an album a couple weeks before the tools who can't use a computer/internet, and hearing an album, in it's intirety, for free. i'll buy matt's just to be a drop in the bucket.

[shade]

Oh, I am all for leaks and whatnot. There are just a few bands that I like to wait for.

 

For radiohead's new album this year I will not get a leak...fo shizzle.
