Yeah the 2010s has an unhealthy obsession with 80s music

Glad it wasn't just me. Also most of these songs aren't bad, they're just usually repetitive and skimpy on ideas, especially the second half.

^^I agree with this. I still believe these ratings are far too harsh. The album has some delectable songs.

I saw their show last night and there lighting was superlative. They only played half of the album.

My comment is being generous to the album. Even tho the second half has no bad songs, almost all of them have flaws and drag on too long to be great all the way through.

This album has just been buried among the avalanche of superior summer 2017 releases

not bad, just aggressively mediocre and uninspired

Saw them last night. They still know how to put on a good show. They're a stadium band at this point and they fit that role nicely. At this point, given how anthemic their songs are, it's hard to imagine them playing in a club like they would have 15 years ago. That said they had a lot of stuff going on on screens that sometimes distracted from the music. Mostly though that stuff was for the new songs; their old classics were left to speak for themselves a bit more. The songs from this (they played 6 of them) did translate somewhat better live if that means anything, but the crowd responded way better to the classics. The mixing was kind of poor at times, everyone was a bit too loud, but I guess that's what you can expect at a stadium show. Still worth seeing them for the classics and overall a fun experience.

Nice, I saw them at a 'between large venue and stadium' level of venue back in 2007 (Alexandra Palace)and I was impressed by them. I can imagine the new songs are better live, I'm pretty sure some of them were written with the live performance in mind.

i still stand by thinking that 'everything now' and 'creature comfort' are among their best tracks. following the template of those two singles couldve been a fun direction but instead theres a few other highlights but also a few really boring and confused tracks. overall i rate this pretty much on par with reflektor and am glad the reception to this album has knocked the band off its pedestal bc i find them pretty highly overrated since funeral.

Goodness. Couldn't believe what I was hearing when I listened to this..talk about falling off

Creature Comfort is growing on me and I don't like what that could mean

I like how even the reviewer dropped this to a 2

What a fall from grace this band had
|

They're struggling to fill their arena shows. Turns out releasing bad music that's widely panned isn't great for ticket sales

Not to mention alienating and confusing your fanbase as much as possible it seems. Their social media posts leading up to this album's release, mainly on Twitter, is probably the most bizarre shit I've seen an account as popular as theirs post. They pretended to be hacked by Russians, and made a fake website and fake review shitting on the album, weird shit on and on for months, all in the service of this..
