POODLE HAT REVIEWS!!!

Post by **Bruce the Duck** » Wed Nov 10, 2004 2:12 am

Hey guess what? I'm listening to the Bonus Mixes for Poodle Hat for the first time ever RIGHT NOW!!!! They wouldn't play (with the exception of "Bob" for some reason.

) on my stupid Mac. But I just got an IBM ThinkPad from my new school district and it works perfectly on that! Huzzah! Huzzah! Finally, almost a year and a half later, I finally get to hear the bonus tracks. Now, if only I could find a way to turn the volume up higher on this stupid IBM....

I am, I posted that before you did this.

Anyhow, did you like the bonuses? How about the video?

Oh, I had already seen the video. For some odd reason the video and the pictures worked fine on the Mac, but the on-scree lyrics and the bonus mixes didn't.

The bonuses were hella-cool!

My favorite is the vocals-only version of "Hardware Store." That's really cool to hear. The Ben and Al mix of WDTAHTM was pretty sweet too. That could have been the regular album track and it would have been just fine. Some of the instrumental tracks were less impressive than others. "Bob" is pretty cool. "Genius in France" is interesting but goes on way too long without the lyrics. "Wanna B Ur Lovr" is okay. P@tLC is okay too. But the best part of P@tLC is the musical interludes between the verses. Those I've already heard plenty of times. And there's not much to the verse music on that one.

Did you need to install any special software to view the bonuses and mixes, Jeremy? (BTW, I have a ThinkPad too and could tell you how to adjust its volume......

)

No. All the necessary programs are already installed on the computer. I got the computer free through my school district and it came with a bunch of programs, including a CD burning program.
