During a high and drunken stupor..

1 ) Macquarie Ridge
2 ) 5-9-78
3 ) Whitewater
4 ) Peacock Tail
5 ) Satellite Anthum Icarus
6 ) Oscar See Through Red Eye
7 ) Slow This Bird Down
8 ) Constants are Changing
9 ) Turquoise Hexagon Sun (maybe 1st)
10 ) A Beautiful Place Out in the Country

Strange.. no Geogaddi on there. Is this when I get kicked off the board? :twisted:

Seriously.. there's something about the grandeur of "The Campfire Headphase" that I can't escape from. I had an odd (very odd) moment of realization (yes, realization, not clarity) during that long drive a few weeks ago from St. Louis to home. I just couldn't get over the amount of guitars in TCH (something that I had evidently overlooked or just never realized before), but lo' and behold, there's something magical to it.. otherworldly and extremely cohesive. As they've mentioned in interviews (to be believed or not), there's definitely a story going on there.. most likely not the story that they claim..

I've definitely found myself still listening to TCH more than any of their other albums.

I love TCH. That album is just the depression of america in music.

Agreed, TCH has really grown on me... it's practically dripping with quality.

Hmmm, since I last posted in this thread over a year ago, I should update my list to include "Tears from the Compound Eye." It always takes me back to the days when I first discovered BOC and all the emotions from that time. It's definitely my new all time fave track. :D

Pete Standing Alone is by far my favorite! With the beats switching up like that? And the keyboard solo? Seriously, I wish they still did keyboard stuff like that. Now when the songs do a surprise change, it usually means it's going to fade-out.
