ditto. i like it WAY more than Challengers. might actually be my 3rd favorite behind Electric Version and Mass Romantic.

 

Challengers really grew on me since its release and now I really dig it. I took it out of my stereo today to put "Together" in, and I do love the more uptempo feel of the new album. All the New Pornographers' children are above average in my book.

Agreed on Challengers though I do like the new one quite a bit more. Just the appropriate amount of Neko. I actually don't recall any of their albums outside of Electric Version growing on me so quickly.

Always liked Twin Cinema more than Mass Romantic and Electric Version. I could never get over some of the awful lyrics from Mass Romantic (although some of it is excellent in stark contrast), but the music from that album is great.

 

Twin Cinema > Electric Version > Mass Romantic > Together > Challengers

 

Twin Cinema has 4-5 amazing songs, but a bunch i don't really care for either. Bejar's songs on there aren't my favorite as far as his New Pornos stuff goes either.

I really liked Jackie, Dressed In Cobras. I don't think Bejar has come any closer to something as accessible as Dressed In Cobras.

And isn't Streets Of Fire a Destroyer song redone for Twin Cinema?

LCD Soundsystem - This Is Happening - All I Want

 

 

Anyone else think he has been listening to Bowie's Scary Monsters album? Some of the guitar work is almost Frippesque. Great bloody track though.

she's on jools holland (bbc2 - british tv) tomorrow night.

 

 

Did you see the show? Newsome was the best thing on it as well as Mumford & Sons, awful band name though. Worst show in a while though and that is saying something about that show. Holland's inane interview technique is bloody irritating. As for Hole....Lord why?

Newsom was the best thing on it since the last time she was on it.

 

Unless they get old legends on the show, I think the show is pretty boring most of the time. I don't really think that much of Mumford & Sons - they are ok, but really the type of band I'd expect to see on the show.

 

NP.

Christ, I love this record to death. The tracks I didn't like before have grown on me. And the tracks I liked, I love now. Talk about staying power.

 

Agreed. I enjoyed the heck out of the drunk girls video also.

I am very nervous about being hugely disappointed by this one. Dunno when I'll buy it. First two tracks I've heard have been kinda duds.
