Both sites also offer discount bundles with the previous 7" for those that missed it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think he's finally learned to slow down a bit. My opinion of them took a dive with that last album but seeing them a few months ago reinvigorated me. They really impressed. Now they have ANOTHER new line-up so he must be a pain to work with. I like these songs enough to get them in this format though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The last album is severely underrated in my opinion It's not bad necessarily it just sounded like b-sides from the previous one. I think they're great, just maybe could slow down the output, quality over quantity and all that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I figured they had a new lineup again with the Quiet Slang focus on the last 7" I agree with you about the first 2 EPs. Those songs have a very "urgent" and angsty sound and that energy just wasn't present on the following LPs. The full lengths just have a weird paint-by-numbers feel to them. Great live band though. Maybe I'm missing something and should revisit the last couple albums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xfactor675 226 Report post Posted March 7 (edited) this band derailed somewhere between the first 2 LPs, the accusation of the guitarist, and now the full line-up change. Probably Alex is annoying as hell. Also this album cover... ego ego ego... Edited March 7 by xfactor675 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crossedoutname 126 Report post Posted March 7 Think I’m gonna pass on this one, I love me some beach slang but that quiet version of dirty cigarettes isn’t doing it for me. Also so it’s getting to be an expensive day with beach house and fiddlehead pre-orders Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would have liked an album with Cully Symington drumming on it, he made the band 100x better. Hopefully James doesn't get even more ridiculous/out of control now that the band is all hired guns, so everything is completely his say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dub 40 Report post Posted March 7 Was stoked for this until I realized its all re-recorded versions of old songs. There may be a time for new versions of old songs, but its not LP3. Damn, at least give me half an album of new songs or something. ...and not to nitpick (but I am), but wasn't Too Late To Die Young already quiet enough?

Damn, at least give me half an album of new songs or something. ...and not to nitpick (but I am), but wasn't Too Late To Die Young already quiet enough? See, I'm the exact opposite. I would be really bummed if he wrote 10 new "Quiet Slang" songs instead of a new full-band LP. I'd rather this be reworked tracks, and then, he put the effort of writing new "Beach Slang" songs. 100% agree with you that "Too Late to Die Young" shouldn't be on this though. He should've redone another full band track. To go along with the above discussion of their discography, in my opinion, the EPs are the best, first LP is solid and it grew on me, the second LP is eh. Quiet Slang stuff to me is really unnecessary, but I like their tunes enough to buy it. Their set at Fest was amazing, great live band. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

poweredbytrust 57 Report post Posted March 8 while the acoustic versions aren't especially horrible to listen to, one still thinks when they (james alex/polyvinyl) will stop rehashing those songs to the death, since it really hasn't changed that much over the last 4 or so releases except for essentially not being the same band personally for quite a while now.

I think the dude's got a pretty nasty ego problem, but wasn't one of the guys kicked out of the band for sexual assault allegations and another one just straight up quit in the middle of a show? Whatever the case, I'm kinda over this band. The first two EPs were great, the first LP was ok, and I think I only listened to the last album maybe two times. Acoustic Beach Slang is not a thing that I'll ever be interested in.

Acoustic Beach Slang is not a thing that I'll ever be interested in. I don’t know about the sexual allegations but I do remember that they “broke up” on stage and that guy is gone. But they just recently toured and now they have another totally new lineup. Either way he seems very wishy washy. I still very much enjoy a majority of their output but I’ll probably be passing on this release as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
