Parts pollute the lakeside
Incisions open up wide
Heat's rising from the dead wretch
As we migrate down the long stretch

every time that part comes up i always think of the dead marshes like in lotr

This is so addicting to listen to. I don't think any album that I listen to can or will beat it, except maybe their next one.

i was realizing today, i think Carver City is my favorite album cover of all time. i could look at that thing for hours, so fucking sick.

Definitely, just the general idea can spawn endless ideas. Works best when layin back in your bed listening to it while scanning the artwork. I've already pondered a couple ideas for a movie. (Casting, settings, plots, etc) Even have a sequel started.

nevermind, thought you said something different.


i really think carver city has potential to be the sickest movie ever...

the riffs during the rats verse remind me of the fat fuck riff, i think thats why i like it. really like the ff riff even though its so simple

To the post about the IDR video album: Jess wasn't thrilled with the behind the scenes/interviews portion of it. They were really rushed through it and didn't get the chance to put as much effort into it as he would have liked. Thats all

yeah no shit, I can read.
The point was everything else I said, about the site only saying there was 400 odd questions answered, and none of the new ones were listed. That was the newest one that was listed at the time.
The problem has since been fixed.

ohh my mistake... your understanding is greatly appreciated.

the IDR album, just like a CD, is a classic. it can't and won't be beaten by any other albums/ videos CKY's produced or is about to produce. it's maybe just been 2 albums (and 2 music videos) since the marvellous IDR, but CKY, since then, hasn't really released a video that would at least stand up to the standard of the videos from IDR.

if i'm honest, i'm not at all excited about the general idea of making a video for a song and if a single does really need to have a video why not film the band playing the song and tell the RR guys to get stuffed. it'd turn out much better than what's been shoved in our face. in this case, and most cases, in fact, Deron's interpretations are too surreal to film and if you spend time on perfecting them, it's sure as hell gonna suck. we love IDR, because the production's budget, the entire crew was running out of time and the simplicity is overwhelming. that's what makes it so brilliant and loveable.

in my view, the video wasn't supposed to be cheesy and wasn't mocking the concept behind the lyrics. it's not sarcastic in any way.

and it's not Bam's fault. i think that nobody could film it the right way and that no one should even bother. it's awesome when the interpretation is an open subject, because of the amount of things our minds come up with.

it's nice to see the bitch toss on video again. the whole video would be bearable for me if it had that Carver City atmosphere - more blood (there's some on one of the spectators' shirt..), guts flying out and all that darkness and mysteriousnees of a horror film. in this case, it's seems that Mr. A #1 has just graduated from some uni from the Ivy League. him playing the main role is a totally dreadful decision. but that's Bam just loving to push in some of his colleagues from gay frat parties. you know that type with white shirts, ties, vest and tight trousers wearing them every fucking day for no obvious reason.

sorry, i could've made this much simpler. this video didn't need to be made. at all.

i'm waiting for the boardwalk body and rats video if they're really gonna happen. maybe on of those will change the patter CKY's fallen into (only with videos obviously).

the bottom pictures sum it up perfectly..

too many gimps on here think they are horror buffs or whatver just because mr deron miller likes horror. spare a thought for the other members of the band?

Hahahaha perfect

i do agree with that, but at the same time, it is the theme of the album, you think the rest of the band was like "well horror is lame, but mr miller likes it, so it has to be the theme"...so i mean obviously the rest of the band think it's rad. as long as the music is perfect.....videos are just for fun.

i don't think it's the rest of the band we have to worry about, it's what the media allows and the general viewers of MTV we have to worry about, so yeah in the end, a horror/gory video just wouldn't work....so let's drop it and move on!

so far 52k CC albums have been shipped. check out ask cky.

I wonder if that counts iTunes purchases...

I would guess not since you can buy individual songs.

Good shit!!!!

you can't ship a song on itunes. shipped does not mean sold, it means RR sent out 52K copies to retailers.

That's what I figured right after I read it again. Shit.

Before the soundscan era, that's how they tallied record sales. Now it's actually based on sales.

Perfect.



That's all I got to say for Carver fucking City

off topic, but great sig. and youre from minnesota. this guy is golden

every day this album gets better and better. keep buyin copies people!

I'll be buying at least one or two more this week.


Also, when you guys go to Best Buy, or wherever you go to get CD's, spread the albums on the rack so it's easier to catch other people's attention. It may seem petty but it's actually a good way to broaden what little advertisement Carver City gets in most stores. An employee might tighten them back up by the end of the day but it's some sort of support. Go nuts.

same here. i want to get the japenese version

I'm interested, but I forget..what's significant about the Japanese version?

i forget too. but i heard the quality or somthing is way better

Lyric book is in Japanese and its missing three bonus tracks. Packaging may be a bit different as well.

As for the quality being better, I really doubt there'll be any noticeable difference. A few Japanese disks are pressed on some supposed "super cd" or something, but I really don't know enough. Maybe somebody else can clarify better.

Oh, nevermind. I'd rather spend the $50 on a couple more US copies. Got plenty of friends that still need to be in the know.

There is suppose to be an extra song, which if I remember, isnt on any of the US versions.

it is on the other versions. its doubled up on trauma

I'd buy it if had Deron singing in Japanese. That'd be well fuckin' worth it.

I was hoping for the same thing, I forget where, but someone asked "is Deron singing in Japanese?"

haha.

Ching kow miiii.....

thats woe is me, if anyone didnt know...

anyone hear the latest radiobam? they played roller rager again. AND boardwalk body. pretty cool

"I ONLY DO FOUNTAIN SODA" -deron

lolol

Post episode please.

deron wasnt on it if thats what you are wondering

deron wasn't actually at the show they were just talking about him. still a pretty funny episode tho. they talk about the roller rager vid too

http://www.ipacmm.com/radiobam/radio.bam.18.05.09.sirius.mp3

damn they played imaginary threats too. best radio bam episode yet

This episode was funny indeed. The Sounds song "Nobody Sleeps When I'm Awake" was enjoyable, too. I like her voice.

haha the shit about deron doesn't have a cell phone is hilarious. glad to hear im not the only one!!


hahaha chad. ya know there IS a new cky record coming out tomorrow...

so uh what do i do with my extra smart punk booklet? throw the other one out?

as in an extra signed one?

umm send it to me niggah

finally got my special edition, and all i can say is: STRIPPED YOUR FUCKING SPEECH
did not see that song coming, but god is it amazing

i hope they start playing imaginary threats live. that song is BA.

Yeah I really quite like it as well, powerful vocals.

i finally got my copy as well. the best way to put it short probably is: "i really like the new album" haha. simple as that. ...and she never returned is my favorite track. love roller rager as well. oh my... i dig them all. theres something strange about rats... though. i havent gotten into it yet.
other than that, im damn happy there is a new cky album out and theyre playing shows soon.

yeah!

I literally shit my pants when I saw a Carver City add on Much Loud. That was great to watch this in HD ...

Haha, I was glad to hear that too. Everyone I know has a cell phone, except me.

Bam is such a tool. I wonder if that's just a persona and he's actually a normal DUDE (WTF was that shit?) in his real life.

It was a good show, but mostly because of Chad.

yeah ditto, id be surprised if they didnt though cuz its both deron and chad's favorite song currently

id say IT and TBWB are the 2 best songs on the album for sure...but hey thats just an opinion.
