CHVRCHES - Screen Violence (August 27th 2021) Album • Page 3

Holy FUCK.

 

if anyone prefers youtube

 

Chvrches return with pounding new single 'He Said She Said'

 

This is awesome

 

SLAP CITY

so good

huge charli vibes

 

Now that you say that it does sound pretty similar to Backseat

 

Song is amazing. Love the direction that they're going. People who hoped for a return to the earlier sound are not going to be happy.

 

Wow, this really does have Charli vibes!

 

How am I not supposed to wear this out haha

 

I felt sort of worn out by the end of one full listen tbh

 

I enjoy this but it doesn't blow my mind like it seems to be doing for some of you. There's something missing from those verses. Want to make it clear that I don't want them to retread old sounds--would much rather them explore new territory. This feels like it could've come from the last record. Man, IDK... I wish I liked it more but it almost feels like they're playing it safe, was really hoping for something new based on the promo aesthetic. Maybe it'll grow on me.

 

I do feel a bit like, damn it really just ends after the 2nd chorus ? No bridge or nuthin ?

 

Chvrches Return With New Song “He Said She Said”

“He Said She Said” was recorded almost entirely remotely on both sides of the Atlantic, with the band members working over Zoom and with audio-sharing software in order to collaborate.

 

Idk I don’t hate it but I also feel like it could just be a tuned up bside from the last cycle

 

was hoping for an album announcement today

 

Fun but way too short

 

Love it.

 

Love Is Dead is my favorite of theirs, and I think this is great! It's a nice sensible and slight shift. Damn!

 

God I wanna give this more love because of who it is but...if this came up on my Discover I’d probably skip it after 30 seconds. Don’t like it at all. Almost irritating.

 

Like the song a lot, but the biggest problem here is that its going to get a massive boost in a live setting, and it's going to go off. But on record, there's justttttt not enough. Feels like they can't exactly nail down the same energy to tape

 

This is underwhelming. The vocal mixing bugs me, there's barely a hook, and I feel like it has the worst elements of Love Is Dead (like the repetitive chorus) mixed with their standard production. "Get Out" wasn't an exciting appetizer at the time either, so I hope the best is yet to come.

 

Yeah, I'm also not a big fan of this one on first listen. Lauren's voice is great though.

 

Does Lauren have any other projects? Not enough CHVRCHES out there, need more

 

Triple A-Side, by Blue Sky Archives

definitely check out "cosplay the hard way" and their "killing in the name" cover.

 

Really into it. Synths sound amazing, personally really digging the production all the way around. Chorus is huge and I prefer it to much of the last record (which I felt teetered a bit too much on trying to tap into mainstream elements). This feels more like something I’d expect them to make organically and I’m curious if they self produced this one. Also, love the structure of the song. I’ve been borderline obsessed with songs that don’t follow a VCVCBCC structure so it’s hitting me at the right time I suppose. Very excited for the album now.
