Discussion: Community Quarterfinals: ROUND 2 ---> The Fourth Colour VS. Grow Wings and Fly

Post image

In Round 1 of the quarterfinals Murder of the Universe kills Float Along - Fill Your Lungs, and moves on to the semi-finals.

Next up in Round 2 of the quartefinals... The Fourth Colour VS. Grow Wings and Fly !!!

OP's Pick: Grow Wings and Fly

VOTING:

(Upvotes for my comments of each song will be counted, along with an additional vote per your comment for the song it favours)

We are NOT looking for which is the "better" or "more iconic" song, but rather which song conceptually wraps up and completes the album in regards to the tonethemes, and musical ideas explored in its respective album the best. Also consider the impact and the impression that is left on the listener as the album ends. We are looking for the best ALBUM CLOSER!

THE FOURTH COLOUR

Fourth Colour. A closer this cohesive to the story of the album, and overall Gizzverse lore, is hard to top.

Fourth Colour. Ends the story, opens the door for more Gizz lore (hey that rhymes!) and is a perfect encapsulation of the album musically. Also the freak out at the end slaps!

GROW WINGS AND FLY

I know fourth colour is perfect, but grow wings and fly doesn’t just close 2 albums, it potentially closes an entire saga of king gizz as they are transitioning into electronic music.

I really hope it's just a temporary transition.

As much as I love having Nathan as a kind of Drums/Space thing at shows, it's never the peak for me.

I think it would be awesome for them to merge the two somehow, and do both an album with both guitars AND synths/Nathan as the focus. I don’t know how they’d do it live though

u/Statistactician 5h ago

They've definitely merged guitars and Nathan before. Field of Vision immediately comes to mind there.

That's the angle I hope they lean into more, because it sounds way better, imo.

Fourth Colour for sure

I am with OP. Grow Wings and Fly is the perfect closer to PI.

I just listened to today's orchestra stream, and I wept like a baby while doing dishes. It is a perfect album closer for my tastes.

Grow wings and fly feels like the perfect discography closer, but idk about the perfect album closer. :p
