Haha to the guy a couple comments down from this comment... That's just the way he sounds he is being truthfull tho haha and I loved album am probably going to check this out
This is a great album! i'd probably give it a solid 8 to 9... the production is done so carefully and meticulously, I love how they take "cliches" and still make something ambitious out of it, despite some flaws in the album, I think their musicality and their savvy production make up for it :)
i would love if you would review youth lagoons year of hibernation i think it is a pretty good album if you are looking for that one man indie electronic band sound but im curious as to what you think
i'm a fanboy. currently in the mood that they can do no wrong. owens and JR are brilliant and i can't wait to see what they do next. i definitely think it is the magic of "Album" that has given their music a lot of momentum for me. i don't think every track is gold, but i can enjoy a part of every song i don't like so much. plus their history and attitude as individuals makes me like their music even more.
Album is a grower, Broken Dreams Club EP, is even more of a grower, and Record 3 seems to have the same potential. The more time you give it, the better it gets.
@Johnnyboystrikesback kinda depends on where you come from musically. I immediately loved FSHG because I loved the surf rock twang of the opening track, I love dark moody songs that explode like vomit, I love ballads or 'singer-songwriter' (vocals+guitar) songs and even more I ADORE songs that feel very happy but have dark lyrics (like Pumped up Kicks) and this album has it all! I guess this is gonna be my best of '11 together with Chelsea Wolfe's Apokalypsos.
Agree pretty well with everything, I just liked it a bit more. Couldn't agree more on your view of "Just a Song." I think if the longer songs were a little tighter, the whole thing would be better for it. But I like it a hell of a lot.
I actually enjoyed their EP more than Album, and I loved them both to death. The EP showed much more versatility while still sounding great, despite the rawness that Album had. I've listened to Father, Son, Holy Ghost a lot the past day, and I feel like the songs they did right are fantastic (Honey Bunny, Vomit, How Can I Say I Love You, etc.), but the ones they experimented with (Die, etc.) seem either misplaced or just annoying. I agree, I give it a 7, but that could increase pretty soon.
im really liking this album. the only track that totally blew me off my feet was honey bunny and Im liking a lot of the tracks, but not loving them. ill see with a couple more listens
please review The Dear Hunter's Color Spectrum. its 9 eps that came out as a collection. that idea alone deserves a review and its fairly recent too (last few weeks)
I love it how you are comfortable with yourself and how you enjoy your own voice. Ecstatic. We will deal with sugary moments with overwhelming irony and never in moments of weakness, promise! Am getting this for sure.
I just started watching this guy. I agree with a lot of his reviews. Pitchfork is too pretentious for me. I can't really rely on them to give fair reviews. In fact, Pitchfork lost all credibility with me when they gave the newest Blonde Redhead a terrible review. Nevertheless, I'm of the persuasion that sound is subjective. Yet, I am really enjoying this guys music reviews these days... Cheers!
Kind of feeling the opposite of you on this, Anthony. I think Girls have gotten better with each release. I wasn't entirely sold on Album, but The Broken Dreams Club EP and this release are definitely constant repeats on my playlist. Strong 8 for me.
you said Girls - Album, forever at the end and I'm not sure whether that was because you prefer that record or if you forgot the name of what you were reviewing.
review some punk rock please. I saw your review on Cerebral Ballzy. Give Night Birds a shot. Dead Kennedys/Adolescents inspired old school punk. Their new record is streaming on brooklyn vegan today!
Reveiw Terra Tennebrosa , members from Breach a hardcore band from Sweden very dark hardcore , But now Terra Tennebrosa is more ambient , dark , post metal band! if you like ulver , Cult Of Luna or something like that! listen to it! very awesome album!
Review: Grizzyly Bear's Christ Taylor's solo debut album "Dreams Come True", oh wait- nevermind because it's really boring. Best songs are (borkencollar) and Bericht, which are piano based and have limited vocals.
i loved album!then the EP seemed labored,songwriting wise.this thing heads further out into styles already revisited, but with less restraint.I dont mind a band showing their influences just doit with conviction and i dont really hear that here.Overall there are some good tunes hear.But as awhole its not ALBUM!6
@iBulgey Which is one of the most underwhelming things I've heard this year. Even though I admit it was harsh as fuck to follow a groundbreaking album like their debut, the new Justice sound feels horrendously flat.
