Dark Matters v Giants

Post by jason »

Water beats Camden

Freedom beats This song

Giants draws with Dave

Lowlands draws with If Something

No man's land beats Boom Boom

Fickle just beats Payday

Time was just beats Down

Moon beats Mercury

Stallion beats Adios

15 Steps just beats Breathe

I've left off The Lines as it's short and possibly the weakest track imo.

I make that a 4-4 draw! So not too much between the albums really.

About the same for me, both a bit hit and miss, and kind of forgettable in the grand scheme of the stranglers back catalogue and good music in general.

This is such an awful way of comparing one album with another.

I prefer a more measured, scientific and quantifiable comparison....

My take using the science of my mind (i.e. what I like)

Dark Matters pisses on Giants

The End

I still like Giants, but I think DM is better. But I having a break for a few days, currently enjoying the Dave tribute CD, makes me smile hearing Daves vocals on Peasant, all his character comes out. Lt Kudu.

I hope this isn't saying Giants is a fun party and DM is a catastrophic disaster.
I'm confident that isn't what you are saying . Image
