windy_miller Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 Can't wait for the new Swans record. To Be Kind was my favourite album of 2014 by a country mile. New M83 is the best one so far. Cheesy as hell, but I love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gluther Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 Just now, Scruffylovemonster said: ooo not heard that one yet. II meant gamma knife. On it now! Ah Gamma Knife is great too. Will have to check out the album later, hopefully it's on a similar level to those two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit middle of the road, but Friends is a bloody brilliant pop song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
addicted2noise Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 The new M83 album makes them more likely for west holts I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 M83 album is okay. Better than I expected anyway, although not a patch on their previous stuff. It's like he saw the positive reception the saxophone solo at the end of Midnight City got and thought 'I'll stick a silly solo at the end of every song'. That Go! song is an absolute stormer though. Love it more with every listen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Also new Frightened Rabbit is also okay without being particularly remarkable. Verging ever closer to being a Scottish Coldplay on a lot of songs though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely think it's a stronger album than Pedestrian Verse on first listen though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big__phil Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 New Parquet Courts album out today. Can't wait for it drop to through my letterbox - from what I've heard so far it's pretty good, if not as urgent as previous records. Good chance of playing Glastonbury as well.

Yeah definitely not as full throttle as the previous albums but still very very good. Definitely hope they show up at the festival again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye if you're gonna call an album Junk you better be sure it's a masterpiece or you're just asking for the reviewers to make light of the title Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingcrawler Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Just getting round to listening to Junk just now but even though I liked the three singles I don't have high hopes. Anyone else seen the setlist from the first night of their tour? Very Junk/Hurry Up, We're Dreaming heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that the new album is a massive departure from those albums but that's rather shitty. No Kim & Jessie/Graveyard Girl either. Maybe they'll change em up slightly for festivals, but I guess Hurry Up was their breakthrough and they're touring a new album so makes sense to be heavy on both of those. Slightly less excited for them now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slightly less excited for them now Yeah, as you say given Hurry Up, We're Dreaming was their big album I was expecting the set to be heavy on that and Junk but I thought we'd get at least one song from most albums. Shame really as they're missing out so many great songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuna Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 I saw them on HUWD and it was pretty bad, have no urge to see them at all any more. Would have loved to catch them during and before Saturdays=Youth, but alas, I was a wee whippersnapper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stocky3000 Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Would have to agree with all of the above, I really like the singles but the rest of it sounds like something that would be on the Sims Video Game or in a Lift Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisskross Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Been listening to 3 albums this week; Explosions in the Sky - The Wilderness Three Trapped Tigers - Silent Everything Babymetal - Metal Resistence Lost interest in babymetal after a couple of listens.. TTT took a few more before I got annoyed by some of the synth lines. EITS was the only one that lasted till yesterday but not sure it'll get many replays over the next few weeks. Next week; Michael Kimanuka - Love and Hate Mogwai - Atomic Tim Hecker - Love Streams Spotify is dangerous.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
