cut copy

It's all over slsk now in 256

lights and music REALLY reminds me of rotund-era severed heads

(and that's a good thing)

I've a terrible rip, but what I've heard is just gorgeous. If the singer really says "I get so horny that I fall in your dreams tonight" in "So Haunted," it's my lyric of the year.

he's probably saying "i get so haunted"

ugh

i thought it was a reference to 2 live crew's 'me so haunted'

out there on the ice again

the b&w cover/colour overlay slipcase is gorgeous designwise, but I've only taken the thing out three times and it's already worn a huge groove in the front of the digipak

If the singer really says "I get so horny that I fall in your dreams tonight" in "So Haunted," it's my lyric of the year.

at their show last night I couldn't not hear him singing this :(

really stoked for new album to come out AND to see them live soon

OH SHIT IT'S OUT!

or maybe not until 4/8?

Out 04.08.08.

i swear it said march 22 on their myspace

Release dates shift around a lot these days, I think.

Mebbes that was Australia release date. Coz I've seen billboards saying "out now".

it was for the online store limited signed copy bullshit

bullshit on bullshit, it's been out for a couple of weeks and debuted at #1 on this week's charts.

Jack Johnson !!!!!!!

<3<3

am extremely impressed at the #1 debut

They've advertised it heavily.

And so they should have, it's great.

modular's marketing weight is considerable. not to put down his very entertaining record but it's tremendous marketing clout that put muscles into the top 20

everyone wanted the free bag

i didn't know there was a free bag :( does anyone want to sell theirs?

can't download a tote bag!

I'd expect the Presets album to do at least as well as this when it comes out

they pulled the bag stunt last time around though

it was heartening to see as many modular bands in the aussie dance top 20 charts as ministry of sound

maybe they'll move onto other types of luggage for the new presets record.

i dled this cuz i love hearts on fire but alot of it sounds really mainstream & boring

it sounds like shit you would hear on the hills or something

basically needs more human league/new order and less sounding like the killers

wtf 'mainstream' you're hardly some cheerleader for indie

(i have not heard the whole record)

im a cheerleader for cut copy joints that sound more like synthpop and less like 3 doors down

ok

ok it gets better i like far away + so haunted

Far Away is so good

it was heartening to see as many modular bands in the aussie dance top 20 charts as ministry of sound

one of the MOS ones is a local act on a sub-dist imprint too

Just hearing this today and man hearts on fire and strangers in the wind are fucking great.

the album's growing on me (agree a touch overlong) - i hated lights + music when i first heard it (and still dislike the chorus), but it sounds better in the context of the album. wtf at 3 doors down comparisons?

The chorus of So Haunted reminds me of ELO. In a good way.

seriously loving this.... far away sounds like erasure

only complaint is dudes voice on some of the cuts production is A+

Cut Copy: loved by both Ethan and Dee the Lurker.

dude i love lots of dee the lurker shit... i own a kajagoogoo LP

wow @ album chart

dropped to 9 this week, still ahead of debuts by REM and Duffy. (Panic? At The Disco took over the 'barely holding Jack Johnson off the top slot' role tho)

i just noticed the sax break in hearts on fire! so much love.
