Let England Shake is so far the year's best. Whoa.
Didn't know FYS was putting out a new album, that's sweet, I hope it's as good as RODT, not that Enemy of the World was bad, but RODT can't be beat, and there was a disappointing amount of synth on Enemy of the World. :CAlbums I'm looking forward to:
Yellowcard - When You're Through Thinking, Say Yes
Set Your Goals - Burning At Both Ends
Sum 41 - Screaming Bloody Murder
FOO FIGHTERS kjshsadjhjd
The Blackout - Hope
The Strokes - Angles
Four Year Strong
Rise Against - Endgame
Blink 182
I'll come back to it again for sure, but I'm kind of disappointed after the first listen. It's pretty great, yes, but I felt a little unsatisfied in the end.Let England Shake is so far the year's best. Whoa.
I can't wait to check this album out, even if it isn't as good as Hometowns. Thanks again for turning me on to this band Zoro.New The Rural Alberta Advantage is great, but it isn't as good as Hometowns. There are some amazing tracks ("Under the Knife", "Tornado '87"), but the slower tracks are kind of dragging. Nothing as good as "Don't Haunt This Place", "The Deadroads", either.
Yeah, they posted a status last month saying that the new songs were coming along great and that they sounded a little different to normal FYS. It's either gonna be an EP or a full-blown album which is pretty cool. In any case, absolutely agree, RODT's one of my all time favourite albums. Enemy of the World was overproduced and John Feldmann produced it, so yeah... hopefully they'll record with someone else this time and avoid his evil touch. Definitely agree on the disappointing amount of synth, What the Hell is a Gigawatt's synth was so weak and disappointing. If it was louder would've been best song on the album hands down. They need to give poor Josh louder synth lines :(Didn't know FYS was putting out a new album, that's sweet, I hope it's as good as RODT, not that Enemy of the World was bad, but RODT can't be beat, and there was a disappointing amount of synth on Enemy of the World. :C
Yeah honestly, it doesn't even feel like he's in the band more than half the time.Yeah, they posted a status last month saying that the new songs were coming along great and that they sounded a little different to normal FYS.

Yeah definitely, I can imagine he'd be a lot more involved live, like doing all the screaming and the synth being hella louder and stuff... still though, really? Fair enough I guess, I thought it was a bit off when I listened to it for some reason... flannel is the colour of my energy here, for one thing you can actually hear the synth. That or find my way back, loved the riffs on that song.Yeah honestly, it doesn't even feel like he's in the band more than half the time.
But I think the best song on the album is the bonus track 'Listen, do you smell something?'
