so who do you think came up with the title "Vision Valley"? and why do you think they chose it?
i personally have no clue. but i'm pretty sure craig came up with it.
Is it just me, or does this sound like a really obvious drug reference?

No, not really. I could reflect on anything. I guess its one of things that means different things of everyone.. or it could have a meaning to it they have in mind.. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

i believe there's a song called 'vision valley' on the album (in keeping with their other albums that share song titles), so maybe we'll have more of a clue once we hear its lyrics. or better yet, once they do some pre-publicity and are flat-out asked to explain it.

according to my dad vision valley is also known as valley of vision which is the event in the Old Testament where an oracle had a vision in Jerusalem and told all the people that they were going to die because they all slayed alot more animals and drank alot more wine that was needed because they were all into partying hard...among other....wastful and disorderly things

I wonder if they know its biblical

so is craig the one slaying animals, drinking wine and partying hard or the one informing everyone else they're going to hell?

Vision Valley was the speech. So, then it would mean that they're telling everyone to stop wasting the Earth's resources or they'll perish.

They could be like, "the Vision at this end of the Valley is dim"(

) or something, to insult the album...but it's better than "Nothing's Coming", that was like opening the door and and waving chocolate bars in front of a critic's face. That's not something you really want to do.

the biblical explanation actually makes a lot of sense, especially if you compare it to "winning days" or "fuck the world". craig has said that "fuck the world" is an environmental song ..

I think 'vision valley' is a grower. I wasn't sure at first but i'm liking it more already. The press will try and make a crappy pun out of anything, good or bad- hopefully they'll be too busy writing about the vines return to brilliance to bother this time round

Feb 4 2006, 09:46 PM
vision valley sounds like craig got all hippie or something like that

all spiritual... like "sacred woods" (which also could be a pun as i just noticed...but those arent sacred

at least not to everyone)
but nothings coming might be more of a rockish type of title, but i really dont care what its gonna be called as long as brilliant music is on the new record.

yeah, i can totally see the puns coming like...
the vines have lost their vision with 'vision valley'
'vision valley' blinded by short tunes
but whatevs. critics live for that shit.
i love the title - all those V's totally work for me.

and no, kryst, i cannot say 'vines vision valley' ten times real fast.

craig's off drugs - ie. pot - now so maybe it's about his experience quitting. the clarity that comes with being clean. might depend on when he wrote the song tho, eh? pre- or post-stoned haze...
