I wasn't sure how I felt about you at first, but despite myself I've come to love and cherish you wholeheartedly as much or more as Room Noises. I can't get you out of my head, your tunes are so beautiful and relevant to my life and all life in general. I'm thankful for you and I hope we grow together over time. love, your Listener.  _________________ the thrill of Hope... the weary world rejoices. |

Me too. Different like in a major software upgrade. There's always a learning curve but you know your life will be better because of it. And the next one will even bring new surprises. I don't see the band settling. _________________ EisleyWebGuy "The industrialists never saw the fruit of their own labor - Post Moderism, which I now proclaim as dead.

Woo! Thanks for the friendly responses... I seriously feel like this album has become a friend of sorts. I know that sounds kooky, but it's true. _________________ the thrill of Hope... the weary world rejoices. |

Combinations grew on me, but in a wierd way: the songs i liked at the begining i now love, but i songs i disliked at the begining i now hate! and i still think "the sound" of the record (production, engineering, mixing, mastering, whatever) is lacking, especially after hearing the songs live! oh well… |

And I'm honestly really strangely attached to ICBTFY. I guess if I've never 100% believed music can help people (though I always have believed that) then that song would be the one to prove it. I have my own personal thing relating to it... but somehow besides all relevancy it's simply really cathartic. I love the whole album though. |

I love the whole album though. I love ICBTFY also, probably my 2nd favorite track behind Ten Cent Blues, and it contains my favorite moment of the entire album, the bridge that Chauntelle sings. |

same here, I didn't like Combinations that much but after months and months of constant hearing I've started to appreciate and have become addicted to it. Especially 10 cent blues and If You're Wondering. _________________ http://www.eisley-italia.tk ! "Δῶς μοι πᾶ στῶ καὶ τὰν γᾶν κινάσω"

So weird, I loved the songs when I heard them live, before the album come out. Even I love Room Noises, I think I got more obsessed in listening Combinations, than listening to Room Noises. |

I still think the best Eisley is still the real early stuff Head Against The sky, Blackened Crown, Dream of Me, Pretender etc. I lke Combinations especially the title track and Come Clean. There are just a few songs that seem so rushed and there is really nothing special about them Go Away, and Come Clean for example. I don;t know. What I would look forward to ina third album is a complete shift. Showing Eisley can do something TOTALLY different. _________________ But I cannot discover any advantage except in honor, in glory, and in right action.

If You're Wondering is great to sing acapella... quietly... to yourself. With the window open on a sunny day. _________________ the thrill of Hope... the weary world rejoices. |
