i can make you a copy of mine if you want to hear it. i paid almost $35 for it, so i doubt i'd sell it. even though i'm not extremely crazy about it.

Well i've been enjoying the record thanks to mc666 for sending me a copy til i can get the real thing. I don't know why people aren't liking this, it sound great to me. It has some great song on it like... Ride the Sky, Mindbender, If I Only Had A Reason and After the Rain. I disagree with ult's comparison and think it's more like a cross between Plastic Green Head and their 1990 s/t. My only complaint is the slightly thin guitar sound.

Plastic Green Head was a thin album and in my opinion this album is a step down from it.

I think Escapi has scrapped plans to release this in the U.S.

Last I heard, Escapi was on the verge of going out of business altogether.

I just received my copy in the mail this morning and I'm loving it. I'm not as big a fan-boy of Trouble as maybe some of the other members here and they are a somewhat new-ish discovery for me, but I'm really digging this album. 2 spins already and lots more on the way. I have no qualms about the stoner/retro direction the band went into. The doomier side of theirs works well too, but Simple Mind Condition is fantastic.

I had it, but sold it a while ago. Gimme Psalm 9 or The Skull any time of day.

For those interested, this will be coming out on vinyl pretty soon, together with Plastic Green Head.

it's a good album, just not a "fantastic" album which is what I was hoping for after the decade long hiatus. But taken on its own terms, there is nothing wrong with it.

Trouble has leaned more towards the "stoner" camp than the "doom" camp since 1990 when the self-titled was released.

the Trouble vinyl releases are out, I saw these today:

Plastic Green Head (with a stupid new cover)
Simple Mind Condition (also with a different cover)
Unplugged (w/Wagner)
Live In Los Angeles (w/Kory...beware)

Necro thread bumpage....

Dusted this CD off for the ride to work this morning, probably for the first time in about a decade.

Now I remember why it didn't do anything for me when it was a new release. Dull as dishwater. Zzzzz...

Haven't listened in ages which means I didn't find it that enthralling.

What is your opinion of their last album with Kyle Thomas? I still like SMC, but it’s not one of my “go to” selections. Some of the production sounds unfinished to me... especially the guitar sound on the second track. It could use a remix, but there is no demand for it.

You mean "Distortion Field?" I have vague memories of checking it out on Spotify when it came out, but I guess it didn't do much for me either, cuz I never bought the CD, haha.

I guess that’s why half the fans are into Eric Wagner’s current band The Skull. His voice and trademark lyrics are irreplaceable.

Definitely, man. I wish they would just make amends and make great Trouble records again.
