Exactly! I'm friggin ecstatic the man is still alive making records....especially since things could've turned out a lot different. Looking forward to this release a lot.

Just because he may not be passionate about the guest singers, doesn`t mean that he hasn`t been passionately working on the music for the past 18 months.

Well... no... it kind of does mean he doesn't give a sh*t.  You can get a ton of examples of Brian not giving a sh*t on the last album he did that had guest artists.  Go check it out.  That's the whole point we're all trying to stab you with.  

So because GIOMH was crap then it follows that this will be a carbon copy?

The best indicator of future results is past experience.  

Those who don't learn from the past are doomed to repeat it.

Fool me once, shame on Brian Wilson.  Fool me twice, shame on me!

etc. etc. etc.

Every one of the guests on this album is making good music in the last two years and is under 30. It's p much the exact opposite of GIOMH, if you actually knew anything about modern music.

I hope you're right!

I'm really impressed that you're sad about that fact that Brian Wilson is collaborating with some talented musicians who aren't old white men.

He should probably give Mike a call, right?

Agreed man, cheers to BW's new album in 2014!

[Dudd]

It's an album. We're talking about an album that none of us have heard except a guy who got insulted a page or so back. I'm indescribably excited for it, but that doesn't drive me to want to partake in the heated arguments, bitter sarcasm, and personal insults of the last couple pages.

I'm also happy Brian still has his driver's license, but I don't want to hear his wife hire somebody to rap about it.  Just sayin'.

What is your problem?  First you mention that two of them are homosexual, then you bring race into it... WTF man? 

It's my opinion.  The guests dont' sound great.  It has nothing to do with what color their genitals are.

GIOMH sounds like Brian cut every song in one vocal take and couldn`t wait to get out of the studio.

The new album he has worked on for 18 months.

There is no comparison.

correct. Brian didn't give two shits about GIOMH, and it showed big time.  By contrast,  we have first hand account of just the opposite happening on this one. Why is that being glossed over? Did you hear ANYBODY saying the same about GIOMH?

Oh, and again...Frank Ocean is a hip hop artist, but he's not a rapper. He sings more than raps, and if he'd been around twenty years ago he'd have bern labeled as an r & b artist.

So, because Brian is recording with other popular artists, it's fair to assume that his new album will sound like the one he recorded 10 years ago, not the ones he recorded six, four, three and two years ago? Some users on this board are so weird.

The new album might suck, and it might be great, but to try to draw similarities between this and GIOMH just because there are other singers on it is a weird, oddly negative stretch.

[bringahorseinhere?]

F&ck Me!!!!!

Love the man for what he has willingly given us already..... not what he may!!!

damn! Its Brian Wilson, how dare anyone put him in a box and expect ra ra ra!???

what's the matter with you people... we love him cos he did things out side of the box in the first place...

and now he may be doing that again, and you guys F'n shoot him down before you've heard the product???

something wrong with you pricks.

We did hear people saying the same about GIOMH!  It was exactly the same stuff, then the album bombed.

This album is being produced differently, it's a completely different era for Brian (new book, feature film, inspiration from the C50, inspiration from a #3 album) - thus I highly doubt Brian is going to release garbage like GIOMH. So I find the comparison to be pretty flawed.

[SMiLE Brian]

Brian actually cares about the new album, how hard is that to get across?

 "I think people should write better melodies and sing a little sweeter, and knock off that stupid rap crap, y’know? Rap is really ridiculous"

Brian Wilson, Brag Magazine #385, September, 2010



Now, maybe I should ignore the man's own words, and be excited that he now understands and enjoys rap (I personally enjoy rap) but

If you think between 68, and 72, Brian developed a newfound appreciation of rap and decided, Hey! You know who I really like?  Frank Ocean!  Love his ish.  Also, I'd love for him to RAP on my new album!


Then I don't know what you're smoking.

It seems like a lot of this so called shooting-down of Brian happens when people take hardcore offense of anyone who posts anything even remotely contrary to praise! People get pissed at these folk, these folk get pissed back and so on .....

Why don't we just create a "In Praise Of Brian's New Album" thread and then another "In Discussion (and perhaps criticism) Of Brian's New Album" thread? If people don't want to have to endure anything less than high praise for the album can they can choose not to venture into the second thread ... It's much easier to just ignore a thread in the first place over new posts in a thread one is already deep into .....

Just an idea.

[Ron]

BTW, to all the people excited about that, tell me how in your world, Brian went from insulting Rap 4 years ago, to having Frank Ocean rap on his song this year?

Explain to me exactly how that went down.  Explain to me how Brian is excited to record that.  

[SMiLE Brian]

You are making assumptions that are not the case, actually listen to Frank Ocean to see why he is a fucking great SINGER who also raps.

[Robbie Mac]

Just because he may not be passionate about the guest singers, doesn`t mean that he hasn`t been passionately working on the music for the past 18 months.

So because GIOMH was crap then it follows that this will be a carbon copy?

This is the "logic" of the argument it seems.

Yet Ray Lawlor says this new material is just like that of the Life suite on TWGMTR. . . but we'll just ignore that nugget of information for the sake of carrying on this same monotonous argument for another 30 pages.

Ray seems like a nice enough guy, but the day I trust Ray's ears of what he says he's heard, over my ears of what I've already heard, will be the day Alzheimer's finally wins.

Do you really believe the crap you say?

[Pinder's Gone To Kokomo And Back Again]

Hey, Brian and Mike both rap! Why not just do a Beach Boys rap album and be done with it???

It's my opinion.  The guests dont' sound great.  It has nothing to do with what color their genitals are.

I thought you were into country, you must have heard of Kacey Musgraves. She ain't homosexual, but wrote a song called Follow Your Arrow. You'd probably like it if you didn't think about it.

The guests don't sound great to you because you don't know sh*t about modern music, dude! It's ok to admit that, you're old now, but imagine how your dad would have felt if Johnny Cash was collaborating with Nick Cave. Who's Nick Cave? Some eighties man who sang a song with Kylie? f*** that.


Ron, you know nothing about modern music, and thus don't understand how cool it is that Brian is recording with these people. But you've gotta stop this 'GIOMH PART 2' nonsense.

You have to accept that these people are actually better than Eric Clapton.

OR. Frank Ocean just said, "Hey, you guys mind if I rap over this, just to see what it would sound like?"

Why jump to conclusions WHEN YOU HAVE NO IDEA what went on during that recording session?

I thought this was the place to love the music of The Beach Boys/Brian....

I have assumed wrong......

You can't change the past, only what is.
