if maps and that orgasmo-screaming song(chopchopchopchop!!!!) are anything to go by, would i like it as a fan of new wave/alt rock? it looks interesting. thankee.

NO, it's pretty bad. It was a big let down after their first EP, which was good. So buy the EP, then the album.

really? my local store has the ep

it's ok. Good if you can get it on sale.
The only 3 memorable tracks for me were "Maps" , "Y Control", "Modern Romance".

no

yes.

"Maps" is such a pretty song. I thought it was Cat Power when I first heard it.

i like it. alot.

has anyone seen them do their cover of 'sweet home alabama?' i hear it is dead on.

first thing i've ever heard by them and i like it very, very much.

Definitively yes

good album.

I think it's good but I know nothing about the technical aspect of music.

Is it the new album? I dislike it.

6. pin - good
7. cold light - good
8. no no no - good
9. maps - great
10. y control - good
11. modern romance - good


overall its a very good album in my opinion.

I'll put in a vote of yes...I didn't like it before I saw them live, but it really grew on me afterwards...probably would have anyway I guess.

i can't listen to black tongue because of that "stupid dick/stupid bitch" or whatever part

i don't remember exactly what the lyrics are which is good

it's seriously the only song I can think of where the lyrics bother me that much that i hate the song


haha, i love that part.

to each his own.

fever to tell is enjoyable to chew over but not to savour. a lot of date with the night video was filmed in my student union, which they rocked until it toppled over. fun but nowhere near the beauty of sp.

i play y control on repeats because when cooking taste entrees inspire

it's 1/2 good.

i only <3 the EP

isle, it's a really sweet album. go and see them live if you can. i have already seen them three times and they are fucking awesome.
i actually saw them last week....i was in front row and karen o. gave me a pineapple....bit strange, but really refreshing....

it's awesome. there's usually no security gap between stage and audience, so you can basically scream out song names and they usually react. at my first gig she was even resting her head on my chest for a couple of seconds while singing maps. i might be getting some photos of last weeks show here in berlin....if so, ill post them here.
