nelso330 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Ive listened several times, new direction but I love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwhitmuzik Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Reminds me of Metric a little, may be a bad comparison but that's what I thought of at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldo Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Quite boring imho. Last EP was amazing and previous album was good, but this is just so bland to me even after a few listens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPH976 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I guess it's fun enough for 80s pastiche but it sounds more like she tried to remake Viva Hate without anything close to that level of lyricism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwhitmuzik Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I have a few of the songs stuck in my head after a bunch of listens, it's pretty catchy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundboard Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I think this album sounds pretty good, but I've had a little trouble really super enjoying anything past the debut album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kramer73 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Ive been trying to order this for a day.. the subpop website has been down forever send them an email, they'll help you out. Or let them know on twitter/facebook, they'll probably say the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamalatapes Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 I guess it's fun enough for 80s pastiche but it sounds more like she tried to remake Viva Hate without anything close to that level of lyricism Viva Hate huh? I never thought of that. I always felt she was just trying to catch up to her drummers band, SISU and earn that dark pop crowd, since they always fill up the bars and actually dance. For anyone interested in Vu's project as the singer there are still some cool colored wax variants at her band camp it seems. http://music.sisuband.com/album/light-eyes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Got mine in today. The LP is a light marbled blue and the 7" is white. I was doing things around my apartment during my first listen, so I didn't have my full attention. What I did pick up during my casual listen was really good though. Going to be played a lot in the next few days I think. kamalatapes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyfranciosa Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 the Viva Hate comparison is pretty good, though it sounds like she's going for a Siouxsie and the Banshees thing on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tvham Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Picked up the Loser Edition today at Amoeba in SF - they had the bonus 7" as well but it's behind the counter, make sure and ask for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JW because when I PO'd I couldn't remember the price point. But at my local shop the full album was 15.99. + california tax... I didn't ask about the 7" because I have it already and it slipped my mind at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yancey47 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Not a bad deal. I like this album way more than Only in Dreams. I dig The drum machine late 80s 4ad vibe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
