Balance and Composure - Light We Made (Oct 7 2016) Album • Page 35

shit For A Walk is fucking rad. guess it's gonna be that kind of polarizing track though.

i am definitely loving this.

 

On my first listen - I thoroughly enjoyed the first three tracks but even after seeing the reactions to "For a Walk" here, I was not prepared.

 

i have a feeling im gonna be spending a lot of time w/ this.

 

The opener just crushed me

 

Jons vocals in Midnight Zone are seriously incredible and there isnt a B&C that preceded this album where he sounds that good.

not to say he has ever sounded bad, i just love that vocal performance on the opener

 

What's with all these revial bands making shoegaze/dreampop albums suddenly.

 

i would hardly call this record either of those things... maybe minor elements of some of those, but overall, naa

 

This album might be too chill.

 

Have to admit, I'm majorly disappointed by this. The songs they had streaming were very definitely the best on there. The rest I can't gel with...I'll have another listen in a sec but man I'm sad about this. It's too, I dunno. It's just not what I wanted I guess. A lot of this album I can take or leave. Can't really see myself rushing back to it any time soon.

 

Excited to listen to this once I'm done my classes today.

 

Opener and the last two tracks are great, singles are okay, and the rest....I have no idea. I'll need more time with it for sure, but I can't decide if "For A Walk" sounds like farts or sounds good.

 

for a walk is my favorite track

 

the electronic /synth whatever line that creeps up over the chorus is my favorite. i really like this so far. gonna walk to work w/ it for another full listen this morning.

 

The three tracks we heard before the album weren't shoegazey. Interesting. I'm feeling like I'm gonna put the rest on and it's not going to be either.

 

it's not going to be, people think title fight and turnover went "shoegazey"

 

Any heavy stuff that we saw on the first 2 LP's? Sounded like from the 2 singles I heard they were stepping away from that.

 

I associate Title Fight now with a lot of chorus-drenched slow jams. I can see that on this new Balance record for sure. Shoegazey is perhaps not really the right term, though. I suppose that's subjective though!

 

there is definitely shoegaze and dream pop influences all over those records (and this one), if you don't recognize that i don't know what to tell you

 

just because a band decides to filter their guitar sound through pedals doesn't make it shoegaze sounding

 

It's a will yipp thing lol

 

If it makes you want to stare at your shoes and think about your life then it's shoegazey

 

the bass on on mediocre love reminds me alot of that viet cong debut.

i think take a walk into mediocre love is my favorite little search, at least with the limited listens i've had.

 

yeah im glad will yip invented shoegaze

 

obviously

"...featuring blisteringly loud and dreamily reverberated feedback"

that's definitely Hyperview. Peripheral Vision is more of a dream-pop/jangle-pop album and I'd say this lands somewhere in between, But there are definitely elements and influence from those genres in these albums and I don't know why that's so hard to admit. People are so picky about genres

 

Idk what to tell you bub. It's a different sound. Especially the turnover album and the first three tracks released from this. Title Fights newest there's a little crossover
