    Not to sound controversial or anything, but I think it's a very good thing they are releasing new music.

    Holy shit, I didn't see this until today.

    I'm fucking ready. Screen Violence is still a regular listen for me.

    I'm still mad I didn't see them in the Screen Violence cycle. The videos from that tour looked so fun

    I'm mad that I only saw them once in that cycle. It was amazing.

    I saw them twice on the cycle. The first time was in a 100 capacity room at the Hollywood Cemetery and I was on the rail. Insane show

    The best thing about that tour cycle was that Lauren's costume changes meant we had to get Final Girl on the setlist every night.

    I didn't love Love Is Dead prior to Screen Violence. But as has happened with a few other bands I like, a fantastic album can re-shape my opinion of a weaker earlier album.

    SV showed that LID was a little period for the band that didn't determine their future, and I find the album a lot more fun now without that "worry".

    grateful all the fucking time Supporter

    Love is Dead rules.

    I know this is an incredibly uncommon CHVRCHES opinion, but every album from this band has made me more of a fan than the one before.

    There’s a lyric on the new Paramore album that I wonder if it’s an intentional SV nod or just a coincidence.

    “I’m in a horror movie where I’m both the killer and the final girl”

    I did think Hayley could have SV on her mind, even subconsciously, given her love of and connections to the band.

    Wouldn't surprise me since Paramore had them on the cruise one year.

    I don't want to be rude, but Chvrches didn't invent the concept of a final girl

    What I do agree with is that I think SV got them back in their groove of them being very much a theatric, all-encompassing act. The whole horror movie vibe of SV was great.

    Also their transition from an electronic band to a rock band has been so much fun to be a part of.
