The Hotelier - Goodness (May 27, 2016) Album • Page 177

I would say Pt. 2, Piano Player, and Fear are the bottom tier and that there is no middle tier because the rest of the songs are on the top tier.

 

Was never a big Bayside fan. :x

They're cool enough tho.

 

I get why people like opening mail so much, but I just prefer the urgency there's in goodness. I should have said that while I put them in different tiers, there's very little separating most of them. Fear of Good is the only song I'm pretty meh on. Just feels kind of out of place and awkward within the album in my opinion. Reminds me of Cassino and Ice Factory from Sounds of Salvation.

 

my favourite song is two deliverances. just so simple and good

 

Are they really out of tune? You're a more schooled musician than I am, so I'll trust your ear. But it really doesn't sound off to me?

 

I mean I'm not as trained as teebs but they don't sound too off to me. Just sounds like it's sung by people who aren't the greatest of singers with no vocal correction on it. Not bad at all, but not perfect. Which is probably what they were going for?

 

The end of the phrase he trails off the pitch a little bit. Definitely not way off just a musical choice

 

Soft Animal?

 

I'd put it on par with the instrumental tracks and the spoken word, so I don't really include it. Not a fan. Well, that and I'm lying. It's with the first group for me

 

I really really love this album as a whole, and I love listening to it all the way through.... However, when I am at work, the only songs I seem to come back to are: Two deliverances, Settle the scar, and sometimes Sun. But mainly just the first two

 

Until I got to the last sentence, this was the worst opinion I had ever read in this thread

 

If I posted a video of my buddy and I covering some of this stuff would you guys watch?

 

Reel, deliverances, soft
You, sun, fear
Goodness, settle
Mail, piano

Yes

 

@teebs41 of course!!!!!

 

only if i am made an honorary member of your band in spirit

also yes

 

Just have to convince my singer to do it, he's a fan of the record but maybe not to the extent I am

 

soft animal might be my favorite hotelier song now

 

was a bit on the fence but after combing through all the lyrics on this im started to think they topped home with this one

 

Sun, YITL, Piano Player, Goodness pt 2
Settle The Scar, End of Reel, Soft Animal
Two Deliverances, Opening Mail, the poem (i love it)

 

soft animal, end of reel, goodness pt 2
sun, opening mail, piano player

really just love all of the album but those are my top 6

 

Got my shipping confirmations for the LP and Goodness Pt.1 single. The single confirmation also included a digital dl but only contained the one track, so idk what that means for the b-side

edit: nvm, store page says Rain is vinyl only, I'm dumb

 

rain is just rain anyway

 

oh wait really? I thought that was just speculation

 

this is better than Home - fight me

 

Agreed better than Home only slightly though. All 3 albums make for an incredible catalog
