Juturna90 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 This album is absolutely incredible. I really enjoy it a lot upon first listen. Glad I preordered because this band can do no wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O4Onyee Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I somehow knew I'd hear this today. And is Ned really only one song? That's a huge bummer if so. I actually think he's technically on 3. I really enjoyed this album. Definitely a change in direction from their older stuff, but I for one am a huge fan of hearing Jamie on vocals even more on this album than previous albums. I'm looking forward to see how these new songs sound live/which ones they pick to play live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbes Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Ned's definitely on more than one song. He's on Trace Me Onto You, Liar's Love, Rose of Sharon, Hypernight and probably backing in some others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwhitmuzik Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 honestly, the "shoegaze revival" is as dumb a term as the emo revival but it's actually sort of happening in a way. new bands like whirr and nothing and pity sex are getting big, bands like title fight are using aspects of the sound in their own, and bigger bands like ride and slowdive got back together. tell me that isn't similar to what happened with emo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royce Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 This album is really good but i do agree that somethings about it sound too familiar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mappingtheyears Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I'm gonna try to wait until I receive my copy to listen to it front to back. I usually try to do the same with most releases, but this was way too tempting. I'm loving the direction this album took. Very excited for my copy to get here!

ajismetal Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 This record is so good. And Title Fight wins the award for best use of the Flanger pedal since Van Halen - Unchained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dickcritter Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 This album is great. I just wish it was a little longer. That 32 minutes was over before I even realized it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpjustinpape Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Love it! I have a strong feeling it will just get better and better with more listens. Its great to listen to all their music in chronological order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youspinmeround Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 This album is great. I just wish it was a little longer. That 32 minutes was over before I even realized it. I think that as records become a bigger part of market and the cd becomes less prevelant, we are going t see the shorter album length return(30-40 mins). I really am looking forward to it as bands were making 60 plus min records as a norm because of the amount of data that can fit on a cd. Plus bands have to realize that in a world with so many options, making an hour plus record is going to alienate alot of people except a core fanbase. Think back to the pre cd days. Not many(although some were great) of records were 2xlps. most were 1xlp and 30-40 mins P.S I am not saying this has anything to do with with this band or record but just music in general in 2015 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smeepo Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Overall I think it's pretty solid, but I'm not a fan of all the modulation effects on the guitars from start to finish, and the vocals seem to drone on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most punk/DIY influenced bands have always kept their album length short to accommodate the vinyl format. Also I haven't listened to much of the record yet, but I love Jamie's vocals, it's really cool to seem em trade off on records like that where Ned dominated on FG.

Green Tea Papi Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I love it too, but as others have said it all blends together, the only super standout point on the album for me is the main bass riff in Hypernight and then again it reminds me of Drawstring by Pitty Sex. I don't know I have mixed feelings about it, but I'd be lying if I said I haven't listened to it 5 times today. Regardless this album is really solid.
