Done deal folks. And here's my take on just what "Circuital" IS! It's another letdown. Not quite of the magnitude of Evil Urges but a close second, As in it's the 2nd least attractive Jacket album. Circuital is an album that starts with such promise then hits a run of four to five consecutive songs were all Jim James musters up is singing the title words over and over and over and over and over again. Just listen to "First Light" one time and you'll get the idea. Circuital IS uninspiring, and flat out un-creative. The highlights-yes there are a few...The driven and powerful "Victory Dance". The title track, and the slow burning "Slow Slow Tune". Aside from that this album is ho-hum at best. I am ready for the MMJ message board clonies to launch a beray of verbal assaults my way....claim I want the guys to write "One Big Holiday" over and over, never progress, blah blah blah. This doesn't even sound remotely like the band I fell in love with. This sounds like FLaming Lips or something far less serious. It's hard to imagine this is the same band that wrote songs such as "At Dawn", "Dondante", "I Think I'm Going To Hell", and "Steam Engine". Sorry Folks but this is nowhere near the epic sounds of MMJ. From "Z" backwards is masterpiece after epic masterpiece. Evil Urges to Circuital is experimental let's be genre-bending pooh!
I would bet money that if message boards existed back in the 80's when Neil Young was making crappy music as a fuck you to Geffen records the folks on his forum's would be praising those records! Not at all saying that's the deal here. I'm just saying most die-hard fans refuse to let themselves be critical of their favs. I'll say it again......The moment Rolling Stone Magazine labeled these guys America's radiohead is the moment it went to jim's head! Now he'll forever be chasing that ghost of being groundbreaking genre-bending like thom yorke.
We get it. Thanks for checking in. :beer:

Not that I've been here that long, but it just seems disrespectful to preface your whole argument with how "MMJ clonies" on this message board are going to "barrage" you for your opinion.
Regardless of your opinion, you should be respectful and express it in a way that isn't aggressive to stand-offish. I've only been posting in this forum a couple months and the people I've encountered here are friendly, thoughtful, and have an array of different opinions, so it seems a little childish to make your whole argument based on your pre-conceived notions of people who post here (which are very wrong).
You can find the album to be a disappointment, but you should express your opinions in the thoughtful and friendly manner in which 99% of the people here, especially the forum regulars, do. But that's just my two cents. ;D

Man, I remember that. The thing is though, even though that play lost the game, so much BS happened the previous 4-5 batters that it was just the icing on the cake. I feel bad for Buckner that he was the exclamtion point of all that bad karma.

Are you sure you mean "beray"? I looked that word up (never heard of it) and it really doesn't fit.
Did you mean barrage? Or maybe bevy?
Let me know so I can make sure I launch the correct thing your way ;)
"Flaming Lips" is like the biggest burn you can give to a band.
I agree that it's the way you presented your argument. You weren't inviting any kind of discussion. There are a lot of die hard fans and frequent posters who share all or some of your opinion. Unfortunately, when you throw daggers right out of the gate..

First ever post, back in 2008Quote from: billybuckner on Jun 12, 2008, 01:29 PMEvil Urges a curveball? Actually not at all, the record is a perfect offspring of "Z" the thing is "Z" is where the band "sold out" so to speak. Not commercially but criticly, around the time MMJ started to get pub from major music zines like rolling stone and such they decided to please the ever hungry critics whom love unique if not downright maverickesque music and there's no problem with that direction they in fact pulled it off rather well with "Z" but then came the "americas radiohead" label and in my opinion that caused the band to reallly shoot for the moon with the whole "we're gonna sound like no other band" theme.
...and then:Quote from: billybuckner on Jun 13, 2008, 12:31 AMwas all due to the "reverb" Jim James is a mediocre singer at best without the reverb. Also folks keep asking why people join this forum to bash Evil Urges - my intentions were for 2 results 1. hear others opinions 2. hopefully the band themselves get word that this album was a miss.
...and on to 2011, with an new album out:Quote from: billybuckner on May 29, 2011, 07:54 PMHear me out. MMJ is in my top 5 of favorite bands to collect, see live, and support. With that being said, I am again utterly disappointed with the latest album "Circuital".

Oh, and Tracy; I think he's somehow conflated two words in his mind. It's either a barrage of verbal assaults he's forecasting, or else he's expecting to be berated.

What an ass clown is all I can say to this fool. I think I have literally listened to this album all the way through just about every day since it leaked (and yes, I bought the hard copy too). Shows how unmusically inclined some people can truly be. D-Bag!

So true about Wonderful...I first heard it as a recording from the Newport Folk Festival a few years back. As such, I assumed it was a Guthrie cover or something. Turns out it isn't.
It's perfect and timeless.

This band has a choice - they can play great alt-countryish music, or they can expand and do new things no one else has really done before. They can't do both (no one can). I'll take 'em either way. I got trust in that.

It is the perfect encapsulation of why they are my favorite band. When I read that interview last week, I nearly jumped for joy when it got to that part. Finally put into words (from the horse's mouth no less) what it is that draws me toward them. It's INTEGRITY in action. Trust and faith in your favorite band is a must, I have found. If they let you down, the consolation is that they tried and followed their muse (as the saying goes.)
Don't like the new stuff Billy? It's okay....TTF, AD, Choco&Ice, and ISM will always be there for you to go back to. It's very hard to not pull out the vulgarity stick when people start threads like this. There are other people who have posted their dislike of things on this forum, but they did it without trolling, and they are just as accepted as those of us who eat up everything MMJ puts out. Finally, the word is CRONIES. The L is way over on the other side of the keyboard, so I doubt it was a typing error. I seriously think Billy doesn't know what that word means, and that infuriates me even more than his opinion. ;D
Well guys ol' billy buck was right on point he was "beray-ed" by the "clonies" throwing verbal assaults. I think everyone played into his hand. Anyways hello everyone. new here, but not new to the band, been listening for 5 years now and have seen the band live twice-both amazing shows. As for the new album I was feeling a bit like ol' buck myself for the first handful of listens but after further digestion I have become rather pleased. I am on board with billybuckner and a few others whom feel the band has a quirky sound at times-I believe it began at "What a Wonderful Man" and obviously had a huge existance in the EU sessions, aside from OUTTA MY SYSTEM I don't see it rear it's ugly head much here on CIRCUITAL. This album is pretty tight from beginning to end. The only weak songs IMO are "Outta My System", "First Light", and "You Wanna Freak Out" and possibly with only a total of 10 tracks that could make a listener feel as if the package as a whole is a letdown. For me I look at it as 7 out of 10 are top knotch.

And it happens on every band's message board with every new release.
so what.
I have been more concerned with what the hell word "beray" was supposed to be. The best I can come up with is to think he mashed up the words "barrage," "volley," and "foray" and vomited that out.
And what the hell does he have against Pooh, anyway?

Nope. Love the Wilson vibe.
I think that the Circuital songs sounded 20x better live on the Unstaged thing, Especially you wanna freak out. But then again anything MMJ play sounds 20x better live...
Man..that guy sucked.
And yes, I LOVE "outta my system" - especially after hearing it tonight at Mt. Jam. What it take Phish 8 min to do, it take MMJ 4. Outta My System is concise, it's tight, it's filled with jams and fun lyrics. The only reason it may seem like they're not "jamming" is because Jim is singing over the jams...it's so cool to watch them evolve. to watch their confidence just grow and grow. They're like..."we don't need to stop singing to make this jam happen..."
Love this band.

Amen!! Remnants is incredible. I am the same as you in that I dont see what is not to like about it. It is very Pearl Jam-esc and I love it. But I dont see the correlation between the You Wanna Freak Out and Remnants.
I don't see it either, on either end. Both songs are great and I don't know anyone who doesn't like Remnants. In fact, I think it's a forgotten gem of EU because it doesn't fit on that album at all.

The best reply to a thread you don't like is this:
johnnY...I will bear witness in support of your infringement suit. On behalf of the positive vibe you spread throughout the boards, I searched for and found your quote. It just so happens that your quote was offered directly to young william when he was whining about Circuital yet again in a thread he created about a "reverbless jim james". Your quote is as follows:
"Sorry it didn't do it for you, but give it a number of listens, preferably w/headphones, and see what happens.
Like Stan from American Dad, I'd pay $900 to hear Jim James gargle (not really), but I needed a few listens to appreciate what Circuital is.
Free your mind in terms of what Circuital ISN'T. That is the key to salvation.
And if that doesn't work, I bet you'll still love the live show. " Kudos for being kind and trying to make someone feel comfortable. It is unfortunate that your thoughtful words were twisted around and mocked in an immature manner. Though I do think the severe whippin' that young william has received is well deserved, I will join you on your course on the high road and not pile on. The quote is once again yours and the good karma it sprang from is restored. :)

Can I sue for infringement? Buckner stole the subject of this thread from a quote of ME! I can't find it, but this is an OUTRAGE! >:(
I can see now why the boys avoid this place.
The best reply to a thread you don't like is this:
johnnY...I will bear witness in support of your infringement suit. On behalf of the positive vibe you spread throughout the boards, I searched for and found your quote. It just so happens that your quote was offered directly to young william when he was whining about Circuital yet again in a thread he created about a "reverbless jim james". Your quote is as follows:
"Sorry it didn't do it for you, but give it a number of listens, preferably w/headphones, and see what happens.
Like Stan from American Dad, I'd pay $900 to hear Jim James gargle (not really), but I needed a few listens to appreciate what Circuital is.
Free your mind in terms of what Circuital ISN'T. That is the key to salvation.
And if that doesn't work, I bet you'll still love the live show. "
Kudos for being kind and trying to make someone feel comfortable. It is unfortunate that your thoughtful words were twisted around and mocked in an immature manner. Though I do think the severe whippin' that young william has received is well deserved, I will join you on your course on the high road and not pile on. The quote is once again yours and the good karma it sprang from is restored. :)
Wow, thanks my brother from another mother! Now I am both pleased by your response and double pissed at this guy. Wait... okay, it passed. We all have better things to do with our time. Me, I plan to enjoy the live versions of Circuital and their back catalog, plus other surprises, on tonight's Bonnaroo webcast.
