I love It still moves!

[Oz]

I just want people to know that. I'm afraid I'm starting to look like a grumpy Tennessee Fire diehard, so that's why. :)

BTW There are days when I consider the Songs: Ohia Split EP to be better than TTF...

[EC]

You're so funny!

For the record, I certainly don't hate you or think you're grumpy or an ISM-malcontent.  

And don't worry, Jim told me he doesn't hate you, either.

(Just kidding about the Jim part.  I only wanted to make you feel better.)

:)

I've been an At Dawn maniac lately.  Sporadically sing/shouting "Alllllll your liiiiiiiife is ob-sceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeene."

[Jellyfish]

I think if I could only take one CD with me on a deserted island that I would be happy with TTF. ;)

[MMJ_fanatic]

it would be a tough coin toss for mee too--maybe a personal mix cd????? ;)

Well, that's tough as well. I tried it a couple of times, but I always really wanna have 'Cobra' on it and after that, there's so little room left for other songs.  ;)

[gregkenney]

i need a whole jar of coins

[peanut butter puddin surprise]

hmmmmm....that's a head scratcher, I guess it would depend upon what mood I was in when you asked.

Today, it would be TTF.

[loper]

There seem to be an awful lot of fans in denial over It Still Moves. When pressed to name their fav MMJ release most seem to name anything but It Still Moves, as if it was a non street cred thing to do to admit that it is MMJ's best to date.

This band is evolving and developing. I expect their next release to be their best yet!  In the mean time I, personally, rank ISM top of the tree for overall quality. IN MY OPINION EASILY THEIR BEST RELEASE TO DATE.

Yes, there are great tracks everywhere throughout MMJ's canon, but ISM maintains a higher level of consistant quality throughout the entire album.

[sweatboard]

I can see how you would say that considering how fucking incredible It Still Moves is, but I truly put At Dawn ahead of it, and it has nothing to do with "Street Cred".  I love all three albums a whole fucking bunch, but if pressed to rank them, I put At Dawn at the top.  I don't really think the fan base in general is that much interested in "Street Cred" although it is funny, I think your the first person on the board to rank it number one.  Nothing wrong with that, I don't think your some stupid bandwagon jumper or anything, It Still Moves is incredible.
Good On Ya!!!!

[loper]

If I am jumping on a bandwagon, then it looks as if I've landed in the driver's seat, cos there ain't no one else aboard!!!

[Jellyfish]

I guess we should spread some love for ISM.It was actually my 1st MMJ CD.It also contains my favorite MMJ song,"Steam Engine",and I still listen to it a lot. ;)

[SMc55]

I love it too. It takes turns with At Dawn as my favourite, depending on which one I'm listening to at the time.

[The Boar]

Indeed, cheers for ISM -- "I Will Sing You Songs" is pure musical perfection.

[corey]

I'll ride shotgun with ya, loper. It's my favorite as well. A buddy of mine let me listen to it during the Christmas season in 2003 and I was immediately hooked. He gave me copies of TTF, At Dawn, and Chocolate and Ice the next week. I scanned through them, but didn't really pick them up again until about May of 2004. That's how hooked I was on ISM.

[MMJ_fanatic]

can I have 2 cds for my desert isle?

[Billy_Pilgrim]

I'm going to join the It Still Moves bandwagon. It is still my favourite album, probably because it was the first MMJ release I heard and therefore fell in love with. The opening 5 tracks is the best opening to an album I have heard in a long time.

[loper]

But the 6th track is 'I Will Sing You Songs'!!!!!!

[The Boar]

...currently my favorite MMJ tune -- damnation, that is a beautiful song.

[marktwain]

Alright, so I hadn't listened to ISM in awhile, and so I had to get it out today.  Damn, it's good!

My rankings change, depending on my mood.  I don't kow that one album is better than any other, but I reach for At Dawn more than the others (except, perhaps, AcousticcitsuocA.)

But I do love ISM, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. :)

[MMJ_fanatic]

me neither :D!
