    Mother fucking has never really been a top priority for me when considering a new band, but I guess everybody needs something to fall back on

    Seriously, though, I've looked all over for that damn cd and can't find it anywhere around here. I think I've actually heard one song, which I liked, and I've wanted to buy just because everyone else seems to be so high on them...I like taking risks sometimes
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    We in the UK have had to buy them online, I don't really do the whole MP3 thing. Amazon will have all 3.

    You've been very influenced by my Xerxes thread haven't you Mark? :p
    "I remember one night at Muzdalifa with nothing but the sky overhead, I lay awake amid sleeping Muslim brothers and I learned that pilgrims from every land — every colour, and class, and rank; high officials and the beggar alike — all snored in the same language"

    It was a beautiful motherfucking thread Jeremy, I've merely carried on the legacy. :)

    thanks ! I'll try amazon.
    I'm not a fan of MP3 and almost never download. I only do it to discover bands. and once I like a few tracks of a band, I buy CDs.

    You need them all :)
    The third one is probably the most accessible, but they are all awesome.

    I suggest you start with 'Welcome to the Night Sky' and go on from there. You can listen to a couple of songs on their myspace. :)

    Nah these are just people I've plied with incessant Wintersleep tunes :)

    Seriously tho, there hasn't actually been a single person I've given the cds to who hasn't loved them. I'm sure there were some other people from this board that are goin tho, it was in the other thread.

    Nobody ever goes on the Wintersleep board and after a while its no fun replying to yourself........

    lol... i just checked... i have 79 posts over there, and that's more than twice as many as the next guy.... :)

    it's a shame that more people aren't using it.

    it was fun when the boys were creating/replying to threads... but they haven't really been around in while.

    at least Loel posted that Japan video he made for me... ;):D
