Well good I thought. Best songs are Visions, Living for the City and Higher Ground, but there wasn't a bad song on the thing! Good start
I've heard the singles off this album before. Lots of good stuff here, mayhaps a touch samey when played as an album. Best song of the new ones to me is Working on the Highway.
Yawnnnn! Nice and short at least, but twas just 33 minutes of lift music.
Always nice to hear Janis Jopping, but I think a lot of this album is missing the intensity I like from her. There's some obvious highlights (Turtle Blues is very good and I hadn't heard it before) but yeah not sure about her with the band
I love all of these songs more than my own children. Truly firing on all cylinders. Going from When I Kissed the Teacher to Dancing Queen is a stroke of pure genius. Absolutely love it x
Some good songs I know and one or two that are new to me that I liked. Generally samey, and the cover of Spanish Harlem going "lala lala" throughout annoyed me. Generally good tho
Second half of this album is better than the first. Enjoy the "Wake up" song from the Tommy Lee Royce nice gay play, and the final song from the blizzard first half. Can't always tell what he's saying and it's not the music I love, but good array of instruments and styles to keep me engaged.
All rather samey, no real bangerz and it's all a bit "why won't me bird kiss me". We need something exciting at least once I think x
Well, 9/10 of these songs was just silly indie music that should be in the background of some teen film or Gavin and Stacey. Nice guitars I guess. However the song called "Don't" was fab, just screaming over and over again. Not enough to raise it into a pass I'm afraid x
Second Arcade Fire album already! Prefer this one to the first, great first 5 songs (best is Intervention, like a good organ) but it drops off a bit at Ocean of Noise. Not as good after that U C, that song was much too obvious. Still solid though
She's got a lovely wee voice and it's all very easy to listen to. Would be nice to have on with a car ride with ar Stephanie. But at 75 mins it does go on a wee bit, would maybe rate higher if it was 45 mins. Overall solid tho
Nice background music, but that's all it is for me. Where's the drama x
Got this album this morning and went "ugh". I finished all 72 minutes of it and thought "not half bad". Some highlights (Pictures of You), but it's not really my musical style. Regardless, tis good, better than their poppy singles.
