yuvaltheval Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 after a few more listens i think this is a great show opener, and will clearly be the album's opening track as well. think the slow drawl of this song going immediately into Brianstorm will really get the crowd going assuming this is just an album teaser rather than a proper single, though, so look forward to the single's release (whenever that may be) gotta say, looking at the recent setlists i'm rather sad i won't be catching them. think that latest setlist posted is a great one. weird that they only play two Suck It And See songs now, but there you go. still curious as to whether they'll bust out A Certain Romance for Glastonbury or if they're done with that song now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sketchead Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 (edited) Superb. Can't wait. 9 days! Have you got colour in your cheeeeeeeks? Cracking opener. I personally think they'll rip into Dancefloor second if they open with this. They're gonna smash it.

somecoolusername Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 yeah, love it. This has got me watching recent AM gigs on youtube, and I think I've finally decided to see them on Friday night. I'll probably change my mind another dozen times before the festival though. I think they've got better with each album; they're a band at the top of their game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anarion Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Cool song, but don't think they should open with it. First song of a concert should either be something that gets people really pumped up or something low key and beautiful (like Pearl Jam opening concerts with Release or Long Road).

Matt - Ed Banger Records Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 I think it's a perfect opener myself, I'm one of the few that really enjoyed their Reading set though, think a nice slow sleazy number will work to then batter you with the second song Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popcornmaster Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Awesome track and picture it being a fantastic opening track for their set. I am really kicking myself that all my clashes are essentially headliners on Friday, I just love Portishead too much. Sorry Monkeys (and Crystal Castles/Mount Kimbie/Django Django - Horrors) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt - Ed Banger Records Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 I'm in a similar boat, really want to see them but having seen them live many times I have to go and watch Portishead as they're far less likely to tour anytime soon!

4AssedMonkey Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 It is a good track. God damn that Friday headline clash. Ignoring the clashes I'd have 3 or 4 of those acts down as must see. hard to take, especially as Sunday is so weak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somecoolusername Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Yeah, the Friday night mega clash is the worst I can remember...not that my memory is necessarily an accurate historical record Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuvaltheval Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 2.4 Million views in less than 5 days, that's preety impressive. Nice to see they're still successful and I just love the song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefski Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 Works well as an opener going by this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGMRuxKDz0g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
