Listen Again
Sure, Divided By Night is something different from TCM, however that being said it is still good. I bought the MP3 version this morning and have been listening to it all day since. This is not Vegas, Tweekend, or Legion of Boom, but it has brought together elements from all 3 previous albums and added some new flare. Many of the tracks have guest appearances and don't sound like TCM right away but they will grow on you including Dirty Thirty, Drown in the Now, Black Rainbows, and Kling to the Wreckage all of which are very enjoyable. Most of the guest tracks are much more vocal then previous albums, and that may throw off some people.
Beyond guest appearances this album has many other gems including the title track Divided By Night, Smile?, Double Down Under, and Blunts and Rainbows. There was only one track I was not a fan of and that was Come Back Clean, a little too poppy for me. Other than that TCM delivers from beginning to end. Don't judge this album on a 30 second preview or even you first listen through, it is a good album and deserves at least a second listen. I know I will definitely be listening to this album for years to come, and will gladly await for more new material from TCM.
CM - Please never do this again
When Amazon offered me a pre-sale on Divided By Night, I ordered it without hearing a single track. Crystal Method is my favorite band and I like every CD they've ever made. Until this one.
If I may be so bold as to document what I think is wrong with it....
Crystal Method has always used vocals. Usually, they use vocals much like instruments, weaving them seamlessly into the fabric of the music. The music comes out as a whole, holistic entity, pure Crystal Method all the way.
But this cd.... Oh my god! Crystal Method has taken the role of backup band or studio musicians to a bunch of unknown rappers and aspiring song birds!
Make no mistake about it, there are maybe two traditional Crystal Method songs on this cd (that's what the two stars are for). The rest of the songs are totally different and from different genre's.
You'll not be playing this CD at any Frat Parties, not if you want to have any friends left.
I'm not saying that all these songs are bad, they are just all over the place. No one person listens to this many different types of music, especially in one sitting. I've never used my Next-Track button so much on a Crystal Method CD before.
Disappointed guys. So sorry.
Longtime fan disappointed.
Bummer. That's all I can say. No serious killer cuts. Only a couple good tunes. Did someone just pick stuff out of the archives and spin some new loops into an "album"? Guys, c'mon. Put out something that either rocks our world with its progress, or does credit to past hits.
