Chvrches - Love Is Dead (May 25, 2018) Album • Page 17

had more time with this and I really like it.

 

Play a bunch of new songs on this.

Edit: And it's the first time I'm seeing the old stuff with the live drummer. I dig it.

 

Really liking this album. My favorites are Graffiti, Get Out, and Graves. I only listened to Heaven/Hell once so far, it was fine but I don't see it as one of the best or anything, it'll probably grow on me though. Like others have said, God's Plan doesn't really need to be on there, but it's fine.

I never really was a fan of CHVRCHES in the past (I only knew a couple songs by them anyway) but when they came out with Get Out I couldn't stop listening to it and then began checking out some of their other stuff.

 

I was on the fence after my first listen, but after blasting this on my commutes to/from work today, I’m happy to report that I’m 100% in on this album

 

Chvrches: Love Is Dead Album Review | Pitchfork

 

Fair score.

 

higher than i would give it

 

junk score, record's good, etc

 

same, i think i dislike it more each time i listen. just not for me.

 

I've been the complete opposite, growing on me more and more. I do think the front half of the record is much stronger though.

 

Whaaaaat. It’s all about Miracle, Graves, Heaven/Hell, and Wonderland.

 

it has never been all about "miracle"

 

i like the second half more myself but that's bc i don't really like any of the singles

 

I think I might just need more time with the 2nd half, it's not sticking quite yet. I do still enjoy it more than most based on what I've been reading here.

 

Even p4k recognizes the importance of Really Gone.

 

My sweaty mug is all over this stream, was a fun set that was hindered by technical difficulties that effected the mix both on stream and there on the night. I've been told that the people towards the back of the room couldn't hear anything clearly at at all but from the front it was decent enough.

 

The front half of this is wearing a little bit for me I think, but I think it really picks up after the low point of Miracle. I actually really like God's Plan even

Hearing this band acoustic is both weird and lovely.

 

Lauren sounds really good on both these songs

 

I've only listened to this album once, but it really plodded along and was not very memorable from song to song aside from Get Out due to it's obnoxiously repetitive chorus

 

i like this record and Miracle is one of my favs and you can kiss my whole entire ass!

 

I listened to all 3 albums in a row the other day and the direct comparison made me even more bummed about this record.

There's just so many red flags surrounding this. Why all these questionable outside producers? Why are they releasing My Enemy as a single when its not obvious single material? And why even recruit Matt as a feature when you have a guy in the band perfectly suited for those vocals? (I hate to make these takes, but gottta assume its for the clicks...).

They've shown their talented enough to let their music speak for themselves. This feels like an ill-advised attempt at a home run swing to the next stage of their career.

Still pumped to see them in philly tho

 

I'm pretty sure they've stated multiple times that Martin was uncomfortable singing a breakup duet with Lauren.

 

Kind of a weird / lame excuse imo. So many bands with both male and female vocalists that are able to remove personal reasons from signing together.
