Just saw the overall rating for this and made me think about my ranking for their records:



1: Get To Heaven

2: A Fever Dream.

3: Man Alive.

4: Arc.

Other than a few songs I can't get into 'Man Alive' so I'd switch that with 'Arc'

I couldn't much get into either Arc of Man Alive, tbh. I like Get to Heaven better than this, but this is still really good.

So much quality music came out around this that I haven't given this enough attention.

Man Alive has some tunes but it's a bit too aspergers for me. Only heard Cough Cough from Arc

Too erratic, perhaps?

The only songs worth listening to on Arc are Cough Cough, Kemosabe, Feet for Hands, Don't Try and Undrowned - the rest ranged from alright to mediocre.

Try listen to all of Arc's B-sides and bonus tracks, oddly enough they're significantly better than half of the actual album

cough cough is still probably one of the best, if not the best, songs they've written.

Arc is pretty spotty, but the highlights are some of the band's best work.

'Radiant' from arc is a highlight that i didn't care for, until i saw them live some years ago, it worked so well it made me listen to it as soon as i arrived home.

It is their best. That drum beat is classic

Cough Cough, Get To Heaven, No Reptiles, Kemosabe and Ivory Tower are probably my top tracks, dunno if I can pick just one.

So is 'Put Me Together' about Brexit or no? Still my favourite on this.



That tune and the title track is one of the great 1-2 sucker punches of the year

Put Me Together is great yeah

Think it's about xenophobia on some level, but not 100% sure

There's a brexit song but it's not put me together, it's just about xenophobia like angry Johnny said. "Theres somebody washing the car and You see them out doing the garden but they're nothing like you and me"

I love that lyric 'they celebrate all of the same days, and you see them out doing the garden, but they're nothing like you or me'.



Really disturbing/sinister/subversive.



To me 'xenophobic song from English artist in 2017' means it can be interpreted as possibly relating to Brexit. It doesn't matter either way of course, it's a strength that it's open to interpretation.



That's what I liked on the last album, how literal were the lyrics to a song like 'Fortune 500' supposed to be? Some people think this band are as subtle as a brick but in their own way there's a lot of subtlety/mystery put in there
