Scott-O -- as in Scott Walker and SunnO)))

lol, he's on twitter: http://www.twitter.com/scottwalkerreal

I'm sure all this vice bullshit is just hilarious but I doubt it's anything the Scott :O thread need concern itself with

Yeah get this half-arsed Vice clickbait off this thread.

Cover art plus up for pre-order now

^^ their first song, can't get the effing thing to embed

well not song, taster

Not wild about the fact that the running order of the tracks is different b/w LP and CD

that comes off more like a michael gira impression tbqh

I am excited. From that sample, it sounds like perfect chemistry.

Hey everyone

^ Preview stream.

Bah, turns out to be just the trailer. I THOUGHT it was too good to be true.

the youtube posted above is not from the album

The 30 Century Man mashup? The one above it seems to be.

that clip is now on the site in the first post of this thread: http://scott-o.com/

aw yeeeeah this is gonna be so good

so awesome

Oooooh nice

This sounds great so far. Makes me think know of early Spandau Ballet for some reason.

would love to hear with your ears for just one day

Maybe not Spandau, but definitely some early-80s new romanticness in the way he layers the vocals so they seem 'shoutier'.

"Gold! (Gold!) The old man's back again!"

It sounds like a mash-up but yes I like it

This sounds better than I expected but worse than my imaginary collaboration between Attila on vocals and Scott on guitar + drill bit + crumhorn + ice block

Could not have given less of a shit when this was announced but that clip's soundin' great

remember this record?

huh, i thought this was gonna me an instrumentals album, not vocals. i like sunnO))) a lot but my interest still jumped up a couple of notches upon hearing that clip.

gonna BE

I don't think the clip is very representative of the whole album.
It kind of reminds me of the first time I heard PIL's Flowers of Romance album: I had the same "this is like opera reinvented" feeling. (it's not like PIL at all btw)

So, uh, this leaked apparently. Haven't downloaded it or anything, but just saw it pop up on a couple blogs today.

First track is a winner. ;-P

this is about as funny as lulu

I made it all the way through the first track and most of the second. Won't be delving any further. The vocals are just way too annoying.

I'm in

dig the starcastle guitar tones on the 'chorus' of "brando"

Vocals are annoying? You must be coming from SunnO fandom.

it is way way better than 'lulu'

it is way way better than 'lulu'

untrue, but i'm not going to convince anybody here

omg "lullaby" IS the ute lemper song!

Pretending Lulu is worth half a shit is a joke that was never funny. Stop it.

there's an all-day listening party for this as part of basilica soundscape. i will pop in and check it out this afternoon.

Pretending Lulu is worth half a shit is a joke that was never funny. Stop it.

lol

After just one listen, I'm loving this. Not as a longtime Walker fan (I'm not, only came to appreciate his greatness in the past few years) but as someone looking for something different. The tension and moodiness of the music contrasted with Scott' voice is just perfect. "Herod 2014" is absolutely epic, creepy and ripe for a grisly murder scene in a film. My early favorite.

Oh and hearing Scott sing the Lempur track... Makes me very happy!

And I find this album more easily... not 'accessible' but easier to enter into than "Bish Bosch". It's more in line with "Tilt".

"bull" is catchy as hell

won't miss the bees!
they're leaping like a river dancer's nuts!

I'm v excited to hear that he is fucking with the Salome legend!
