    Any love for Centipede Hz era over here?

    Made a playlist of that album that incorporates that era’s B-sides:

    Who’s willing to listen

    never understood the love they get
    they got a few songs I really like but thats it

  • littlexaliens

    we got them playing 2 shows back to back at my job, i'm excited; not too familiar with their music to be real

    Damn

    Jealous of those who get to attend their Feels Live shows

    It’s a mini-tour (only 4 dates) happening the 2nd half of October @op
    They’re gonna play the Feels album in full

    it's weird because i like the songs themselves but something about the way it's mixed/produced is so ugly it's hard to describe lol i almost never go back to it

    some great tracks though for sure

    I see what you mean; the mixing feels muddied on CHz (a stark contrast to the smooth clinical sound of MPP).

    As for the production per se, I recall them saying they titled the album 'Centipede Hz' cus the songs sound like they have many moving parts, hence the centipede imagery.

    I was a real AnCo head back in the day and I remember stumbling upon this song:

    Avey Tare shared it on some blog/website right before CHz era started, and he said the song was introduced to him by Geologist, whom Bradford Cox originally shared it to.

    When I listen to said song, I can hear the influence it’s had on CHz. And this influence has made me appreciate CHz more, concept-wise. (The whole album that "My Time" is from is incredible btw.)
    Even though I’m a CHz lover, I will admit I’m slightly more into the concept than the execution tbh.
