OMG Shine is indeed a superb track. Very lush how he used the vocals in this one. All is perfect.

I'm only on the second listen and I think it's my favorite album of '07 so far. Listening at full blast I feel like I'm no longer sitting in front of my computer but floating into another dimension. Lush as fuck! 8) It's so layered it's gonna take quite a few listens to pick up on all the different sounds going on.

Does anyone have a link to the cover art for this?

its definately different. when i first heard the density of loveless i was confused, but it eventually grew to be a favorite once i dug into the sound, hopefully this album will work out the same way. The only track i didnt like was medusa,...i dont like the name and i dont like how it sounds like the name.

Huzzaaaaah!

I love Ulrich. Not as much as BoC, but he's -way- up there on the list. I used to go to the gym and exercise to Far Away Trains and A Strangely Isolated Place :)

Sounds a bit better on CD than the slightly murky leaked mixes. It's an album that's grown on me a lot. Medusa is still disturbingly close in sound to Curve, which I find distracting, and the vocals on Shine just don't work for me. It's a too bit "indie ballad" for my tastes.

The rest, however, is ace. It's a pop record. Indeed, I found it in the Rock & Pop section of my local record store rather than the Electronic & Dance section.

Nice to know. I can't seem to find it anywhere, but that might be because i'm looking in the wrong place.

I just saw a copy of this at Newbury in Providence. I don't know if the record is any good though because I pretty much just listened to "Shine" over and over again when I had it on mp3. For some reason I'm not a very consistent listener of Schnauss's other CDs so i've been hesistating....

Really I'd like to find some Tuss in a store.... seems like it's going to be a cold day in hell...

All I've heard is what's playing on the MySpace thus far... I'm actually not a big fan of 'Shine', contrary to most people here.

I do, however, LOVE 'Stars', 'Goodbye' and 'Medusa'. Definitely gonna pick this one up soon!

I really love the whole thing. I starts to weaken a little around the very end, but other than that I find it quite pleasing t o my ears.

It's such an incredible wall of sound!

Stars is where its at.

I picked this up at Good Records over the weekend.

Again, sounds so much better than what's floating around out there. However, I must also say that it there is just a HUGE difference between listening on headphones and in my car.

On headphones I can pick things out.

In the car its like a big muddy wall of sound.

I think i want to add here that I think that Molfsee is the most BoC-like track on either of Ulrich's first two albums.
