Fair To Midland

[Starz]

I thnk inter.funda.stifle is way better. Fables sounds imo, too processed and over produced...

[Jacob]

some of the songs on inter.funda.stifle are among their best (vice/versa, orphan athem '86, abigail, quince) but there are a lot of songs that sound too demo-ish. from time to time his vocals even sound awful, like on Dance of The Manatee.

I can agree on that Fables From A Mayfly is on the verge of sounding too overproduced though. but the production fits their sound. I just hope they don't take it too far on their next album.

Bump!

Yeah I have been listening a lot to Fables lately and I am so stoked for their upcoming album.  They have updated their official website and they have a twitter account now. Also I youtubed some stuff and came up with some new songs that sound downright heavy like on the first album. Rikki Tikki Tavi is my favorite so far.

Good sounding quality but camera is kinda far from all the action.

New album soon. Can't fucking wait.

2009 is a mindblowing year for new albums.

[Jacob]

omg, the new album is close? sweeet!

[Jacob]

I checked out 3 or 4 new songs last night. and while the quality sucks and you only hear half of what's being played/sung, you can definitely tell it's gonna be fucking awesome. I likehow he screams more. and the music itself sounds true to their sound.

New song! http://www.myspace.com/fairtomidland

Great.

[Jacob]

cool. it's been available for a while though. a couple of others on youtube as well.

can't fucking wait for the new album, I think it's gonna destroy Fables.

btw, I ordered one of the 1000 re-issues of Inter.Funda.Stifle

[Starz]

Thanks for the heads up, I've also ordered the CD...

[mr.sinister]

Sounds good, there is also a demo version of Rikki Tikki Tavi lingering on the internetz.

[mr.sinister]

This guy here had it, but he took it off. Good song, but he has more demo from their sessions. Check em!

[Jacob]

yeah, Rikki Tikki Tavi was on youtube for a while but got deleted. it's a shame, I'm really hyped up about that song. it's imo the best out of all the new songs I've heard.

[skinnypuppy]

their new material is unbelievably good.

[Jacob]

no new word on a release date?

Fair To Midland: FWIW [Crash Video]

[theis]

Crazy!

But damn, the song sounds awesome.

[Jacob]

here's the whole song (these demo's were removed before, but apparantly the band don't mind them being leaked):

A Loophole in Limbo (Demo) - Fair to Midland

the part with the synth is ridiculously good, but I was a little disappointed in the song as a whole. will be nice to hear the finished version.

[E-Money]

Damn, that sounds sick.  I guess I never really gave this band a fair chance.  Which album should I start with?  Seems like a lot of u guys really dig them! 

[Jacob]

oh, and here's finally a good quality version of Rikki Tikki Tavi:
