i get it a meh.
Haven't listened to it much though. Just hasn't grabbed me like the debut.
i still havent heard all this
but i thought Apologies was a slow-burner, so im optimistic about this. i dont think its going to be as good (some of the string sounds just sound... really bad) but im holding out that this is still going to be a really good album!
looking back on this im not sure if this was a worthwhile contribution, but like that is even important here.
string sounds?
:/
Are you sure? Can't remember any personally.
yeah well exactly
i meant the shitty synth strings on language city
i see i see
hmmm the more i listen to this song
the more it doesnt really bother me.
Its ok but a disapointment compared to the last one
It could well be a very slow burner.
So far, I think I prefer it to Apologies
It's a more consistent album, and the run of tracks from Call It A Ritual to California Dreamer (one of the tracks of the year so far for me) is just astonishing. The whole album's good, but if it was all at that level it would be one of the best albums of the year without any doubt.
I love it...
"Kissing the Beehive" is one helluva closer.
