Respect for keeping the faith! No pun intended ;)

No no no!  [fingers in ears, not listening]  :-(   

 

I love Bloodflowers on Trilogy.  Thought the three went bloody great together.

 

And they were awesome live last year.  I still love them.

 

(Admittedly, my tastes are often questionable...)

I think you're right :(

 

I have that Trilogy dvd with the Bloodflowers album on it - what utter shite. Incredibly, they do a great job of Pornography & Disintegration. To say that Buttflowers is part of that cannon is rubbish. Did you see them on Jonathan Toss the other week? They were fucking AWFUL!!! Shit tune & the band were as loose as a baggy flange. Such a disappointment, they should be kicking ass in these days of post-punk reappraisal, but they've totally missed the boat. I don't think they know how to be brooding & intense anymore. Major influence on me, hence my obvious bitterness!

They're not going to make a good one again, are they ?

I lost interest after Disintegration - really didn't like the 'We've 

always had a dance element to our music' remix album.

 

Occasionally I've tried to get back into them, I bought Bloodflowers 

Which I thought was rather dull. I tried that one that was produced

By the bloke who produced Slipknot - that one was REALLY shite !!

I also bought 4.13 Dream a few weeks ago - kind of a last attempt, 

but having listened to it a few times I have to say it sounds pretty tepid 

too, sadly :o( .
