thrilling to the chorus of "novocaine"
just thrilling

it does a lot of things in a very small space
closer better live up to its title

man, nonstop massive choruses on this record so far
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Sunday, 4 January 2015 06:19 (eleven years ago)
so far this is sort of like a continuation of save rock and roll but the songs are just exploding out of themselves
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Sunday, 4 January 2015 06:21 (eleven years ago)
"favorite record" is the false crj jam of this one
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Sunday, 4 January 2015 06:23 (eleven years ago)
"immortals" just started and bummed me out
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Sunday, 4 January 2015 06:25 (eleven years ago)
For such a blatant pop act they really are terribly represented by their singles (esp. lately)
― Simon H., Sunday, 4 January 2015 06:27 (eleven years ago)
i like a lot of things it's doing but i really think it's the ugly "imorrrrhorrrr-immortahls" in the second half of the chorus that sinks it for me
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Sunday, 4 January 2015 06:28 (eleven years ago)
lotta stuff happening in that final track
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Sunday, 4 January 2015 06:30 (eleven years ago)
pretty much all of it great
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Sunday, 4 January 2015 06:31 (eleven years ago)

I love "Uma Thurman" so much, off-brand "Misirlou" guitar line and coke-snorting sound and all

I agree almost 100 percent actually - last time I listened I was like "are only the odd numbered tracks good on this?"

Is this CDQ
― 龜, Sunday, 4 January 2015 15:36 (eleven years ago)
on first spin "The Kids Aren't Alright" sounds like the towering standout, though I like the "Pastime Paradise"ish outro on "Twin Skeletons." definitely their most streamlined record, not sure if that's a good thng or not yet
― Simon H., Sunday, 4 January 2015 16:44 (eleven years ago)
really bombastic but in a way that seems much more...confident than SRAR. like they know definitely what type of band they want to be now, which i don't necessarily think was the case with comeback FOB v 1.0 on the last record.
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Sunday, 4 January 2015 20:10 (eleven years ago)

the leak is kinda terrible quality which normally doesn't bother me much but i imagine this album in particular will sound fuller w/ higher quality files?

Technically not cancer but actually worse than most.
But I came here to say "OMG Uma Thurman".

when will brad nelson, maura johnson and tim finney review this record? the world needs it.

A joint review, you mean?

huh? it's just quoting the munsters theme, right?

haven't heard the whole thing yet, but the tracks linked itt are fantastic

the sample is the munsters theme yeah but stylistically the call-and-answer horn parts remind me of "chick habit"
