StratosOZ Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Not sure if anybody cares, after the shite that was their latest few albums. This one was released last year as a follow-on for CV, obvs. I am pleasantly surprised, actually. Creativity, melody, crystal-clear (really amazing) production, and most importantly, a minimum amount of Duvdev singing. I haven't bought it yet, only listened on youtube, but I'm calling it my most surprising find of the past 12 months. I think the boys are back!

Lol, it's not all amazing, and that section is particularly bad. Duvdev had to have a chance to flex his vocal cords at some stage, didn't he? I think they even used a bit of autotune! Anyway, it aint perfect, but compared to army of mushrooms, it's a welcome return to a style of music I can (mostly) relate to. There's no arguing they're brilliant musicians, unfortunately also crap singers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celaripo Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 i think converting vegetarians part 1 is the last album i listened from infected mushroom and it was quite good - it had its moments i never listened to what came after that so is part 2 somehow similar to part 1?

Yes, it's similar to the 2nd "downtempo" disc, but I think slightly better. Like you said, has it's moments 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microdelic Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Animatronica is top-notch track here for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolmot Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 OK, I'll try it. My expectations are exactly zero so there's no risk of major disappointment, right? Right? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

recursion loop Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 The singing here is so bad that it is even good If we discount the vocals and some occasional guitars, the music itself is not bad at all - beautiful, intricate and well produced.

draeke Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 they should always release 2 versions of their albums, one with vocals and guitars and one instrumental version, you know, for the fans from 20 years ago 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astralprojection Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 The cover is MEH. Looks like a merge between Diablo (the game) and The Matrix. And shrooms. But nvm. As for IM - I lost interest completely after the first converting vegetarians album and havnt listened to them since. Their best album is by far BPEmpire + the tracks Symphonatic, Red Filter and Acid Killer. Spaniard live is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike.54 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 The other side from first Converting Vegetarians is one of my favorite cd's! Outside this album there are also epic tracks like Dancing with Kadafi, The Messenger, Stretched, Heavyweight or Project 100.. So i was pretty excited when Erez and Duvdev announced another freestyle album like the other side Now after 5 months i love it. Listening to it almost every week since September and it's still growing on me My favorite tracks right now are Animatronica, Yamakas in Space, Blue Swan 5, Stuck in a Loop and Pink Froid.. Production on CV2 is flawless! It deserves to be listened in good quality (better than youtube). I've got CD from Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Converting-Vegetarians-II-Infected-Mushroom/dp/B0149QFRIA Beatport - https://pro.beatport.com/release/converting-vegetarians-ii/1601292 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike.54 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 What are the best tracks, if any, without vocals?Good tracks without vocals? Try Animatronica, Yamakas in Space, The Surgeon, Blue Swan.. I know, you asked about no vocal tracks, there are also Leopold, Mexicali without vocals, but there is one track that i need to mention.. And it is Pink Froid.. It have some vocals, but only few in the beggining. It's very unexpected Pink Floid style of track by Infected. Definitely one of the highlights of the album Same with Stuck in a Loop..
