Los Campesinos

I can't wait to listen to this, but as hungover as I am, I'm not sure my head will be able to stand it just yet.

I relented, it's as wonderful as I'd hoped.

guitars on this are great

sadly, much as when live, this is boringly samey. you can interchange vocal lines between most of their songs.

when seen live

I was really hoping they'd have some new tricks up their sleeve for the lp. sadly not.

guys this album is so good

Anyway, so yeah, 2008 album of the year.

^would agree w/ this if not for hot chip

This album is great. I just can't wait to hear the mastered version.

so you think is an early leak?

the only two weak songs on here are 'knee deep at atp' and 'this is how you spell hahaha'. everything else is great. love how it's sequenced, too.

worst album cover of 2008 for sure

"I cherish, in fondness, the day before I met you" is such a great line.

My favourite on the album is "If you catch me with my hands in the till, I promise SUGAH I wasn't trying to steal"

this is the best album of 1998

makes me want to kill

The correct line is 'god help us if there's a war' but 'makes me want to kill' will do.

Still pretending to like Busted, eh?

Would have been shit in 1998 as well.

Hepburn represent!

This album is awful.

Dom--M S T U have reformed.

Seriously?

This album is brilliant and you all have taste in your arse - 3000 posts to follow.

haha at this whole thread

"I never got my ears pierced, and look how I turned out"

liveblog: im listening to 'We Throw Parties, You Throw Knives' on youtube.

the male vocalist in the verses... ah, are all their songs like this?

except for him, it isn't noticeably worse than other indie records that i have heard.

oh shit though the male vocalist just came back in. gotdamn, dom.

Seriously?

They went 'on hiatus' so N@t could get rid of the people she didn't like. Now they are back.

ok, 'You! Me! Dancing!'

intro much? but at least no vocals yet. i can imagine this going down well in an indie nightclub -- not a recommendation. this is like that curtis thread about bands who use loads of instruments at once -- that tinkly thing yo.

ok fuck this the vocalist is just.... dnw dnw dnw

Would this be the same "people" who in an interview I did with them declared a dislike of... I've said too much.

Also you are all missing the most important factor which is that THE DUDE SINGER LOOKS LIKE GRAHAM.

A 9/10? With the reviewer fighting the impulse to give it 10/10?

What am I missing with this band?

I mean, it's only one review, obv., but the disc is getting pretty good reviews overall, and I just don't get it.

It's you! It's me! And there's dancing!

Yes it's twee indie rock/pop but it's done very well. Love this song.

Four sweaty boys with guitars tell me NOTHING about my life

this lyric always makes me think about the lex

So many threads this could go on....

Are you fucking listening, Pitchfork’s [nabisco] [.]?

He only said "white" three times. Disappointing.

But he said paedo upwards of 600.

loooooooooool musical politics

Stars Of Track & Field >>>> The Drugs Don't Work.

It's true though, everyone who likes this band is actually a paedo. No exceptions.

I had a really good zing I was gonna write here, but I'd get a pissy facebook message if I did.

I've not heard a single note by them. I think I like them because Swells doesn't, though. Although I do kind of agree with his statement of Doran's idea - basically "it's 2008 and the world's ending, why are you dressing as a 7-year-old", only I think it ought to be "It's 2008 and the world's ending, we might as well dress as 7-year-olds".

Do it, Dom.

I wonder if Swells/Doran is getting one after Swells slagged off a DiS sponsored tour?

very much agreed with the top 2 but i have never liked "baby i got the death rattle"

new album finished, out this summer

all hell out July 19th, based on the first song and that it's 15 tracks I'm hoping this is RiB II.

I can’t see anything about it other than your post devvvine.

this is the single. not really romance is boring 2, sounds like they've been listening to like, foxing?

That makes me excited to check it out. Foxing is exactly what they shoulda been listening to imo! (But also Romance is Boring is my least favorite one so I'm a weirdo)

a second new one, in classic lc! stomper mode:
