This isn't really a post punk album and Protomartyr sound very much the modern distinction of post punk

Yeah this is much more goth/indie rock for the most part.

it does have those annoying-as-hell post-punkish vocals mind
I'd like this much more if there were additional Bloomsday-esque cuts, they vox are actually quite palatable on that one

yeah I guess, depends
there aren't really 'typical' post-punk vox by definition, as the 'post' implies something detached from punk generally, just with that 'this is derived from punk' flavour
alright, just punk then - you do get post-punk which retains the sort of delivery here (which is admittedly in-keeping with og punk)
I don't know if that clarifies or just confuses matters, good luck on deciphering this

the four singles + opener on this are half a perfect record. other half of this gets a pat on the head and a participation trophy for showing up I guess

Protomartyr? I feel like they are in quite a different vein of post-punk in addition to these guys' Irishness being a big part of their identity.
This album definitely has a larger goth-rock slant than e.g. A HERO'S DEATH or DOGREL, and Protomartyr strike a much more macabre nerve overall (which one might very well say is the essence that makes them the "post-punkier" of the two), but, at least in my personal headspace, they occupy the same sphere and scratch a similar itch. And strictly in that sense, Protomartyr scratches it a little more effectively. Not by much, but enough.

cannot wait to hear tracks like Skinty Fia, Big Shot and Roman Holiday live
the AHD material sounded immense when I saw them, can't imagine what this'll be like

Yeah I want to catch this band in London later in the year…just got to try and persuade a couple of people they want to watch them ;)
Don’t think the wife would appreciate ‘em massively, that would definitely be last resort option

Where there's a will there's a way, they're playing Stockton of all places so I'm seeing them there :')
Going with a friend who also likes them but I think I can always rope the girlfriend into going to gigs if I'm at a loss, she's usually game for anything.

Nice, they’re doing three nights at Hammersmith Apollo so I guess I’m joining the masses for one of those

Damn missed these guys last time in Utrecht, hope to see them on their next tour, the video’s I’ve seen of them online look so much fun.
