they/he still hasn't quite got the songwriting right

45:33 and the pre-first-album 12"s are still his best longer tracks

would rather hear actual hit attempts than 'you wanted a hit' (10 fuckin' minutes?)

oh man, just picked this up at the rekkid store. no joke, "Dance Yrself Clean" is great

It's a great opening track, unfortunately the album goes like this afterward:

One Touch and I Can Change are the only tracks I really like

mdskltr (blueski), Tuesday, 18 May 2010 15:42 (fourteen years ago) link

The only track I didn't like was the one whose title I can't remember but was the track on the album most sonically similar to "All My Friends".

"Drunk Girls" totally works as the second track -- i didn't like it in isolation, but right now it sounds awesome

Don't really love or hate this album, but that "nightclubbing" track is probably the worst.

hahaha I just looked at that picture and was like "... after the first track it goes totally fucking awesome, and that's unfortunate?"

Hah, I figured someone would bring that up.

Image was a search result for "falls off a cliff" or something similar...

All I Want sounded great coming over the HMV p.a. in central Manc on Sunday. Just perfect.

Amazing thing, this Google image search engine.

It would be really, really awesome if "One Touch" crossed over to mainstream radio.

I went to pick this album up at Best Buy the day it came out, but it was sold out.

kornrulez6969, Thursday, 20 May 2010 14:20 (fourteen years ago) link

This is ridiculously good.

ksh, Thursday, 20 May 2010 14:58 (fourteen years ago) link

Picked it up for $6.99 new at Newbury Comics. A+

ksh, Thursday, 20 May 2010 14:58 (fourteen years ago) link

Was also really tempted to tell the ppl behind the counter that they were going to sell tons of these.

ksh, Thursday, 20 May 2010 14:58 (fourteen years ago) link

I'm sure they would never have thought it without your tip!

the bonus track on itunes "oh you" is an interesting ...homage to pink floyd

Throw is pretty relentless but so good!!

micarl, Friday, 21 May 2010 05:34 (fourteen years ago) link

Dudes, I JAMMMMMMED this in the car on a 5 hour road trip at pretty intense levels and it was really insane sounding. By far the best LCDSS LP to date.

I like the self-referentiality in "Home" when he sings "Yeah, do it right/ And head again into space!" A nice nod to "All My Friends," another type of home.
