Touché Amoré - Lament (October 9, 2020) Album • Page 13

The song is really good. But above all, it's such a wholesome video. This made my week a little better.

 

There's definitely some female backing vocals in the chorus right? Who is that? I checked the credits on Spotify and didn't see anyone.

 

We discussed it on the last page it’s Julien Baker

Julien Baker, who also popped up on Skyscraper from Stage Four!

 

Juliens part is so buried that I wouldn’t have recognized it as her if someone didn’t point it out

 

Holy shit that video! So many heads

 

Only reason I recognized it was her was because I remembered reading her being mentioned with that song title in the initial press release of the album. Wouldn’t have recognized otherwise, either.

 

I knew it was her and I still didn't recognize her

 

The chorus is really not a Touche chorus so it's throwing me off.

I saw Anthony Green I think

 

This video 1000% made my day.

 

Ah my bad, must’ve missed it earlier in the thread somehow.

 

Video + song are great. Kerrang live video is great

Always forget how much I love this band, can’t wait until next week!

 

Yeah - the chorus honestly makes me cringe. The verses are fine.

 

I feel like I am listening to Tiny Moving Parts or something, tbh, maybe it’ll grow on me in context but even if one song isn’t my thing this is still my most anticipated for the rest of the year probably

 

Totally agree with all of this.

 

Reminders is the best song they've released so far IMO. Video was absolutely incredible and ngl i shed a tear. Good to see so many happy people.

 

Tbh I don’t really like Limelight or Reminders at all. I loved Stage Four and ...Is Survived By so I’m hoping things will click in context.

 

same, reminders is pretty bad. limelight's alright though.

 

Reminders rocks

 

Don’t understand the reminders hate at all, I think it’s real good.

 

Reminders is going to be great live

 

i don’t listen to singles

i’m sure it’s good

 

I understand the hate and I understand the love. I'm just meh on it. It's a good song, but you can tell from this thread that it's a song that's been done before (whether or not it's Spraynard, Tiny Moving Parts, or some other really good band). Limelight and Host, I hear them and I'm like "Oh yeah, that's definitely a touche amore song" before I think of any other bands.

 

At this point what I want from the band is something different to what they are releasing. I love the lush melodies that both Nick and Clayton create, and I want more of that from Jeremy, I want more of the clean vocals we've heard from his duets with Julien and Andy, but I understand that maybe they just aren't the band for me anymore.

 

can't wait to see them in three years when this is all over
