I just read the press release for this and it made me laugh:
"Szary and Bronsert, both proud fathers, were on their way to the "Stadtbad Mitte" (Berlin-Mitte City Pool) with their children for their regular Monday swimming lessons when they ran into Ring, a devout bachelor who happened to beaccompanied by several dubious females."

"Yeah, listened again last night and really enjoyed it. Except Sick With It, hafta skip that one."
That song is really, really horrible.
― Goethe*s Elective Affinities, Wednesday, 10 June 2009 19:23 (fifteen years ago) link
So much so that I took it off my iPod.
― Chris in Belfast, Thursday, 11 June 2009 12:27 (fifteen years ago) link
"Sick With It" is great!
― 1899 Horsey Horseless (HI DERE), Thursday, 11 June 2009 13:14 (fifteen years ago) link
"Stick With It" is the weakest song on the album (although it's far from horrible).
This is my fave album of the year thus far.

"Sick With It" haters are crazy, it's awesome!

Listened to this album again the other day and realised it really is Apparat's contribution that makes Orchestra of Bubbles for me. There's a real 'Apparat sheen' that this, Walls and Bubbles all have in common that just does it for me. No other Ellen record has really matched up.
― Matt DC, Friday, 7 August 2009 15:29 (fourteen years ago) link
yeah but Ellen brings the fun(k)

There's a new Moderat compilation called "50 weapons of choice #2-9" that's all remixes and stuff, but this 2009 album of theirs, man, wow. Just heard it again after a while and it's just phenomenal.

okay I had to pause the stream for a while and when I came back, I lost track of where I was in the track listing but this dubby shuffle beat track is THE SHIT
(I originally wrote "is fucking THE TITS" but that didn't look right)
― My Buddy® of sexting (DJP), Monday, 29 July 2013 19:15 (ten years ago) link
FYI the track I'm freaking out over is "Milk"
― My Buddy® of sexting (DJP), Monday, 29 July 2013 19:20 (ten years ago) link
yeah this album is THE SHIT. let in the light, milk, therapy, damage done, and this time are all favorites

Versions and Therapy too... In fact, Gita is the only one I don't like (yet?)

I like this but it doesn't feel any more or less of anything than the first.
― boxedjoy, Monday, 29 July 2013 22:05 (ten years ago) link
i remember being disappointed by the first but this is v lovely - though i agree with boxedjoy that it's not really any different
― lex pretend, Tuesday, 30 July 2013 09:25 (ten years ago) link
I also agree with boxedjoy, only I adored the first one too

This is exactly what I wanted? I don't understand the question.

the first song of the album has those lyrics

xxpost: the Bad Kingdom single (with those lyrics) was released a month ago
Just received the deluxe edition, including booklet (pics & lyrics) and a bonus track that has lyrics and everything (was expecting some atmospheric/filler/instrumental track, but this is a full on ballad kinda song)

I missed the release of Moderat II - 10th Anniversary Sped-up Edition and... it's a funny novelty release? I'm trying to figure out if it's basically the 33 1/3 album played at 45rpm
