I've waited and I can't wait any more; I'm starting a thread about Niki & The Dove.

I kind of like the fact that the album will be comprised of their first batch of material, tbh. In five years, I won't feel like tracking down several singles and eps when I can just grab their debut album instead. Disappointed that they've given it a title and changed the cover art, though.

(that's me with the "s/t cover idea looked better fwiw" snarky comment)

I like that your comment stands out amongst the usual "Yay, looks amazing" type ones.

I know what you mean about wanting a collection of all their material and in a few years it won't matter but I've had those songs for a while now and I was interested to hear what else they could do.

So the album is great but why the hell did they edit the last half of Under The Bridges? That last half was the best thing they've done.

Kitchen Person, Monday, 28 May 2012 21:11 (1 year ago) Permalink

I think it's edited on cd but complete on vinyl? Or vice versa.

Johnny Fever, Monday, 28 May 2012 21:14 (1 year ago) Permalink

Oh I got the CD and it's the edit on there. Not sure why they did that, bit of a shame. Still it's a great album overall, my favourite debut in years.

oh that's terrible. :(

It will almost feel like cheating when this ends up being my favorite album of the year in December, because I've been listening to more than half of it in 2010 and 2011—but thems the breaks. It's perfect. I wouldn't change a single thing about it.

This is still the case, btw. Nothing has come anywhere near knocking this one off the roost.

Johnny Fever, Sunday, 9 December 2012 19:53 (6 months ago) Permalink

Judging by the remixes, I wouldn't mind if NatD had picked a bit harder/more aggressive/dancier line on the album, but then again we have Battlekat etc. for that.
