    so people heard their new album we are the night I've listened to it a couple of times now and im not impressed at all

    Im a huge fan, have eveything they've done and they've somewhat changed they're tone for each album but this quite lowkey more rock then beats which I do like that style but the songs aren't that great...a bit dull and disappointing

    don't like do it again, it not as strong as any of the other repetative songs like does it matter and the video looks too much like fatboyslim one...

    its doesn't seem either fun or mind ****ing or quite mellow enough

    think I most like saturate

    no outstanding tracks, im litening to again now, will have to listen to it more.

    got number 1 album in the uk though...

    Didnt think much of the album myself either.

    If you've listened to their previous albums you're pretty much heard what this one has to offer.

    Have to say I've listened to it a few times now and think it's their best album for a while. I was a big fan early on (Three Little Birdies Down Beats!!), but not so much the last 2 albums.

    Do you not like Burst Generator or A Modern Midnight Conversation?

    Salmon Dance is going to be a bit video hit.

    I like most of the tracks on the album, I think they're going to really rock Electric Picnic

    fatlip is cool and all is there a video?

    those are probably the songs I like the most but they not a trippy and three little birdies down beat.

    They've done it again imo,heard burst generator at ****** at the wkend and it sounded great,Its always as if they have equipment no one else has.......

    Live show at EP should silence the neh-sayers

    surely it can't be as bad as Push the button - really bad

    Wasn't impressed on the first few listens; not that the production values weren't sound or anything, just that it wasn't my thing. A lot of the songs on the album are like 'private psychedelic reel' off the last one - great when you're giving it loads in a crowd, but tracks that don't really stand up to listening at home (Burst Generator and a Modern Midnight Conversation for example).

    That salmon tune will probably get reasonable coverage.

    Not great. Although I like 'Saturate' (Electronic Battle Weapon 8) a lot.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,339 ✭✭✭✭tman


    Saturate is quality, it's the only track that I keep coming back to.
    The rest of the album is alright, not really up to the standard of push the button though...

    Can't wait to see them at EP either, i've somehow managed to miss them every other time they've played over here... (which is quite a lot:p)

    Pity Battle Weapon 9 didnt make an appearance on the album, I liked it more than saturate, for some reason the riff in saturate reminds me of Good Life by Inner City....
