New Cloudkicker is out!! - Page 2

rgaRyan · 08-06-2012, 11:29 AM

One of my favorite albums right now. It's on constant repeat.

Excellent work by Ben, possibly his best work yet. I like the transition from prog metal to a more mellow, chill sound.

shellbound · 08-06-2012, 12:10 PM

Mr. Sharp can do no wrong in my book. Awesome release. So....dreamy.

I absolutely can't get enough of this album right now. May even nudge out The Hunter and Infant Sausage as my pick for 2012. Sounds like a combination of Panopticon-era Isis and well... Cloudkicker; and I'm struggling to find the words necessary to describe how jaw-droppingly perfect that combination is.

Using the more mellow ambient sections to really enhance the heavier parts gives it a much more well-rounded and dynamic feel.

I've always had a soft spot for Cloudkicker but one of my main issues that made them (him) a 9/10 instead of a 10/10 was just a bit too much repetition. Perhaps it's just my perception and there actually is as much (if not more) repetition in this album, but the way its laid out makes it so much less noticeable.

TLDR: dreamy soundscapes + those excellent Cloudkicker riffs put together = so much win.

I thought I was the only one who heard a bit of Isis in there... it's fantastic. Cloudkicker can do no wrong in my book.

rgaRyan · 08-08-2012, 12:13 PM

I found his other albums to be quite repetitive. This one is a step in the right direction.

Ralyks · 08-08-2012, 02:29 PM

I think this may be my new favorite instrumental album. Well played Mr. Sharp...

Tang · 08-08-2012, 08:34 PM

I appreciate the fact that I can hear the bass on this release. Makes me happy inside.

signalgrey · 08-08-2012, 08:43 PM

its nice to hear this tone again.

Volteau · 08-08-2012, 09:37 PM

The music is pretty great, but the name is so f***ing awesome!

I heard the first three songs and decided to buy it.

rgaRyan · 08-09-2012, 10:57 AM

Has anyone tabbed out Seattle yet? By far my favorite song, and I really want to play it.

Spaceman_Spiff · 08-09-2012, 01:48 PM

So stoked right now...Must...get...home...to listen to it!

revclay · 08-09-2012, 04:08 PM

This one has grown on me quite a bit. It's not my favorite Cloudkicker release but I enjoy it quite a bit. Also, am I the only one that absolutely loves Garage Show? I would be really curious to see if he ends up doing more stuff that is electronic influenced ala Garage Show. He does it very well while still sounding like Cloudkicker.

brutalwizard · 08-09-2012, 04:40 PM

Havent really got into yet

Tang · 08-10-2012, 12:07 AM

I'm really diggin' Ben's Tele tone on this record. Delicious drop-D Tele action.

JonteJH · 08-10-2012, 11:10 AM

Garage Show.gp5
the guitarpro link again (The bass is just horrible written in the tab, but just listen to the rythm in the song and you'll get it right

) and a full band cover of Garage Show made by me.

samu · 08-11-2012, 07:22 AM

Loving this so much. The Focus sounds like the best song the Smashing Pumpkins never wrote.

ryanoddi · 08-11-2012, 11:16 AM

Downloading now!!! Thanks for the heads up man! I was just wondering the other day when he was going to release a new album

fassaction · 08-17-2012, 01:42 PM

Ive been listening to Cloudkicker a lot lately....I can totally just put all of his albums in my playlist and let them go. Such a talented musician.

Ive actually grown quite fond of "Let Yourself Be Huge"...at first I only gave it one spin, but I have found myself listening to it almost every day while at work. Great album, nice change of pace.

SlaveUnit · 08-18-2012, 12:13 AM

Nice!
