Album Rating: 2.5

Deadcrush is bad. And House of the Rising Sun is alright but doesn't do much to warrant its existence.



Only great tracks are 3WW and In Cold Blood, 3WW being the best on here. Adeline is decent.

Album Rating: 2.5

Saw these guys last night. They were great. Good mix of everything in their discography.

Album Rating: 3.0

^ did they still have the 4th touring member on bass?

Yeah they're great live

i just saw them at outside lands and it was fxcking insane

Album Rating: 2.5

@conditionals No it was just the 3 of them, but everything sounded nice and full.

Album Rating: 3.0

Interesting, cheers. When I saw them in Sydney a few years back they had a 4th member who integrated himself so well that I was sure he would be added to the lineup. Ah well.

Only gave it one listen on Sunday, but i think i like this better than An Awesome Wave.

3WW is incredible.

Album Rating: 3.0

The Guardian, on why Alt-J won't win the Mercury tonight:





People Who Won't Win

Alt-J, because they’ve won it before. Also because they use smart production to hoodwink people into believing they write good songs, but without actually bothering to write hooks. An arrogant, talentless pox on the British music scene who really shouldn’t be further enabled

Album Rating: 4.5

3ww and Adeline rule. The rest is meh

Album Rating: 4.5

No way is this better than wave

Last Year is so much more beautiful than I remembered

Might be tied with 3WW and Deadcrush as my faves

Album Rating: 2.5 | Sound Off

don't know why my sound off isn't showing here? So here it is:

Wow, wow, this album leads the pack of mediocre albums by big name artists in 2017. This album is seriously boring. Whole songs seem to pass without me noticing there's even music playing (Adeline, Last Year, first half of Pleader). Then there's that horrid cover verion that also only starts after seemingly minutes of me checking if the stereo is on. rThe other half of the album consists of one great song (In Cold Blood) and two ok songs (3WW and Deadcrush). rWow again, that these guys have the balls to release this.... Perfect example of one hit wonders that we're prematurely (in this case almost literally) rocketed into stardom, by magazines like NME, before they released their first proper album. rMy guess is this band will fall apart later this year or somewhere in 2018

Album Rating: 4.5

Alternate take: this is their best album

average rating says it’s their worst. who to believe?

Album Rating: 4.5

everyone else is prob wrong tbh

Pleader is the best song here by miles

Album Rating: 3.5 | Sound Off

3ww and adeline still on top for me.. this album is divisive as shit.

Album Rating: 4.5

Last Year underrated af

Album Rating: 3.5

nah tbh

3WW, In Cold Blood, Deadcrush, Adeline & Pleader would've made a great EP, the rest of this is aimless filler or downright bad like Snare
