I forgot what a jam 'Use Somebody' is. The bridge is a good lesson in borrowed chords (D -> F#m, song is in C). I played it to a metronome for probably two hours to practice playing in time. Added 'Revelry'. Love the bass licks. Should revisit and learn. Was expecting bland mid-2000s rock and I guess it kind of is that. There's not anything groundbreaking happening, but I'm totally here for it. I think the vocals and the nostalgic emo vibe here and there are doing a lot for my enjoyment.
very spooky
I'd never listened to this and I think I'm spoiled on Back to Black. A lot of the tracks sound like a demo/leadup to that to my ear (basic 2000s hip hop drums over jazzy chords and melodies). Some vibes on here for sure tho.
No standouts for me personally on first listen but I enjoyed this front to back. Was only vaguely familiar with "band on the run" going into the album. Will revisit for sure.
Not my genre
Not really my genre. Like Oasis but less overwhelmingly and unapologetically British. Guitar solo on 'as you are' was extremely jarring.
Guitars seem both super loud but also hard to hear... I think I'm spoiled by modern mixing. The jntro holocaust track is odd. I don't really see an artistic angle here, it's just describing the horrors people went through??
Pretty good
Good
slaps
Meh
Great
There are some vibes on here, Petit Metier was a standout for me. Cool story behind the group.
Meh
Gram Parsons is the man
