First single from Four, Octopus.

I think this song is hard to put into a box, well done guys!

Poor methinks; the chorus is pretty much non-existent and don't get me started on Kele's newfound frontman moves. The second top-rated comment nails it for me.

Loving this, so interesting. It clicked after the second listen.

Second top rated comment is a comment about the albums released today?

Stompbox · 10-07-2012, 22:36

It must have changed in the last few hours. The comment I was referring to read: 'Nice song. They've lost it though.'

Sounds great after the 1st listen. Looking forward to the album release.

I like this. Yes I do.

Definitely looking forward to this!

trop trendy pour moi

Stompbox · 12-07-2012, 10:03

How can music be 'too trendy' for you? You either like it or you don't, trendiness shouldn't be a factor.

Octopus is ok, nothing more I don't think. Don't really like Kele's singing for the first half of it. Hopefully the album bodes a bit better.

flyswatter · 08-08-2012, 23:23

The album definitely needs a few more listens, currently totally unsure about it.

Possibly a few songs I'm really not too fond of. I've taken a bit of a dislike to We Are Not Good People.

There's a serious dose of Stoner Rock/Metal influence on parts of the record (think QOTSA) which I didn't expect.

Songs I like from it are V.A.L.I.S, Day Four and Octopus.

Mountainlad · 15-08-2012, 14:38

It's a pretty poor effort unfortunately.

About 4/5 songs out of 12 that are decent or good does not make for a proper album.

V.A.L.I.S. is very good. Truth and Day Four are good, Real Talk is decent.

The rest ranges from filler to aboslute rubbish.

Disappointed because I was really excited when I heard they were back.

What a dull and boring album, nearly dozed off halfway through.
