The final three song stretch on this is hypnotizing stuff.

I was thinking to myself yesterday "man, Fake Hpapy would be a great next single if it weren't for that pesky intro" then lo and behold there it is on Spotify with the intro shorn off

So this album has been a sales flop eh

I was hoping that "Hard Times" or "Told You So" would end up as a slow-burn hit the way "Ain't It Fun" did but I guess that's looking unlikely

they rushed the promo cycle on this record intentionally but its floppability may have been out of their hands anyway

I will never understand the mechanics of what gets to be a pop hit tbh

Even Katy Perry replacing Williams couldn't stop this from tumbling out of the top fifty. And Perry's next.

maura otm. "Ain't It Fun" wouldn't reach the top ten in 2017 if RCA sent 20 grams of coke to every programmer.

"Fake Happy" is my favourite track

Can we discuss how beautifully -- how intricately -- York layers those guitar parts on "Told You So"? At least three riffs, each playing something different, and Williams has a melody line for'em all. The thing is like a cuckoo clock.

I tried to convince a skeptical peer of this album's genius by playing him "Told You So" and he replied with "bridge is OK, rest is meh" and now I truly understand rage

that person is not your peer. treat them as the sub-human refuse that they are.

this makes me sad, although it was a youth female that recommended me this album in the first place, so hope 4 the future

has it been remarked that "forgiveness" sounds like a christine mcvie-penned FM song?

DON'T YOU THINK IT'S WEIRD HOW "TOLD YOU SO" SOUNDS LIKE STEVE REICH'S "TEHILLIM"???

I don’t really care about Fleetwood Mac. They should play some Staind.

I still haven't caught up with the new one. Loved the self-titled record though. This one is a bit more synthy, no?

Ha yeah, same here! I took a break from listening to it for a week or so but went back to it again today. I loved the s/t but this even tops that.
― Gavin, Leeds, Tuesday, 4 July 2017 17:53 (six years ago) link
Yeah, this has become my album of the year too. It's just edging out Perfume Genius.
