It's rare to see Brian fight back like that - IF THAT
IS
HIM.
Either way, it's pretty ballsy of them to up and use "f***" in a Facebook post.

For those comparing this (which we have not heard) to GIOMH, I must ask the following...did Brian show the least bit interested in it during the 'promotion' (if we can even call it that) of that album? This is the most hyped I've seen Brian about any of his solo projects, BWPS excepted.

That's true. Plus the fact that I think this is the longest he's ever worked on an album. I do believe we've passed up the

It's a strange contradiction. We love this guy's music because he dared to get out of the box. But, then we want to keep him stuck in the box he made in 1966.

That's a valid point, yes. The fact that no one has heard it yet somehow folks here and on Facebook already know what it sounds like enough to form a negative opinion is infuriating enough for an outside observer. How about the guy actually making the music who is reading this stuff?

This just posted to Brian's Facebook:
Quote
To my fans: it kind of bums me out to see some of the negativity here about the album I’ve been working so hard on. In my life in music, I’ve been told too many times not to f*** with the formula, but as an artist it’s my job to do that – and I think I’ve earned that right.
I’m really proud of these new songs and to hear these great artists sing on them just blows me away. I love what we’ve done.
I would think that after making music for more than fifty years, my fans would understand that I’ll always do what’s in my heart – and I think that’s why you are my fans. So let’s just wait until the album comes out because I think you just might dig it as much as I do.
Love and Mercy, Brian
I like it.

But hey, at least I can check "get told off by brian wilson" off my bucket list.

There
may
be some auto-tune in use on Al's vocals, but it's nowhere near as bad as anyone is claiming. They used the same processing chain for the rest of the lead vocals in the suite.
Indeed ? First you tell us most emphatically there's no autotune on the track at all, now there "may" be some. A little consistency, please.
And I never claimed it was bad (the contrary actually), just that it was unsubtle enough for me to catch it.
Here's what I've said:
"The auto-tune on TWGMTR (exempting the IIT single remix) is actually done very subtly. There's one particular moment in TLOS where the auto-tune jumps out far worse than anything on TWGMTR."
"Al's performance is pretty tight on this, and there is probably a bit of auto-tune, but it's not what everyone is making it out to be."
"Not that auto-tune itself has no artifacts but that the most common artifacts aren't all over From There To Back Again."
"There may be some auto-tune in use on Al's vocals, but it's nowhere near as bad as anyone is claiming. They used the same processing chain for the rest of the lead vocals in the suite."
Which part of that is inconsistent? I've said all along there's auto-tune on the record but I've also stated that
what most people believe they hear as auto-tune
is actually as a result of different types of vocal processing, most of which doesn't have the negative connotation that the term "auto-tune" does.
There is
most definitely
a liberal use of that pitch correction effect going on throughout the reunion album. Same with their live album. But if you *really* want to talk about horrible use of pitch correction, look (or hear) no further than Paul McCartney's live album,
Good Evening New York City
. Holy crap do they take it to another level...

Well, as silly as that "love & mercy" signoff is, it might as well be Brian. I think it'd be dumb to start speculating this is an attempt by the 'handlers' to prevent negative publicity, especially considering we haven't heard a thing yet. Either way, as stated above, someone's pissed.

Poor Brian, having to read criticism of decisions he din't even make. Did you ever think it might be a good thing that people realize that Brian did not pick up the phone to call Lana Del Rey to be on his album, and maybe he's not that crazy about the idea, either, and the people criticizing or being skeptical are actually in Brian's corner? Brian isn't stupid and perhaps his saying he's not quite sure who Lana is is his way of saying, in a passive aggressive way, help, get me out of here, folks. Brian also told the Irish Times he's sick of collaborators. Maybe he's not happy with the way things are going, either. Some fans would rather defend Brian than Joe Thomas or his management. Let Joe and Melinda see what they're writing on Facebook and maybe they will change what's on the album and make it more Brian-centric in the end.
BTW, I don't believe Brian wrote that paragraph on Facebook. I'm thinking Michael DeMartin or his wife. Either that, or they "gently urged" him to put a stop to the negative talk and guided him in what to say. It flies in the face of what he told the Irish Times, and that was an objective outsider who got the words directly from Brian.

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!
