Lightning Bolt: the official album thread

[Mirella]

Everyone is going to hate me if they've been reading my reviews and trust even a word of them.

It sometimes looks like there are more of you. And why would not they trust 'y'all' .

groetjes,

Why is that?

I mean, no, they're not. I can sort of predict the people who will agree. And I think that people in the No Leak Club are generally rabid fans, even if somewhat begrudgingly, or they wouldn't be doing it. And I do really think these songs are refreshing.

And again, that's good to hear, Im still really excited for this album

[verb_to_trust]

If harmless really wants to prove he likes the album I think he should go hardcore and stand outside in a thunderstorm holding a metal rod. Forget getting a LB tramp stamp...

B(r)anding.

So I'm making a decision to not listen to any of the LB songs - even MYM - until the album is released. Let's keep this shit fresh, yo.

Dude, that would totally suck if the world were plunged into darkness and it was the end of society as we know it before the album were released...no more internet..no electricity of any kind...you'd never get to hear them!! Well, short of making the long journey on foot to round up the band and get them to play it live for you in return for 30 pieces of silver and a virgin.

[liebzz]

I broke down and listened. These songs have been disected to death here so I will just say I really loved loved every song so far. Future Days is maybe an exception as I think it will be good in context but in pure context free quality it doesn't stand up to these other finished songs.

I'd do that but only if I got super powers.

FTFY.

[McParadigm]

pfft.

In a post apocalyptic world, these guys are questioning the logic of having batpoles installed in their homes and are burning Touring Band DVDs and dog collars for heat.

They'll do it for handclaps.

[stupidmop]

The batpole May help with a speedy getaway/ change into the supersuit when the crazies attack.

You saw that clip with ed wandering around his house right? That things probably full of booby traps and secret doors and shit.

I find it amazing that of all the five songs we have, four of them are very singable (except for MYM, if I'm honest). I'm really enjoying singing the melodies, and I've been a bit embarrassed to get caught singing PJ recently, i.e. "I've faced it, a life wasted, and I'm never going back again!" Eek.

At least the songs were worth the no leak club expulsion

So, what'd I miss since Wednesday early afternoon, team?

Yes, I saw the songs in the email account, listened, and gave me two cents/checked in a few times, but was quite busy at a Jazz and Blues festival.

Seems as though we're getting a new single Thursday and people are liking the songs okay.

Also, I got a shit ton of PMs from randoms...I assume everyone else did as well.

And are these not being talked about over at the pit or Kat/Sea are working overtime?

The PMs have only just stopped for me I think most of us who've heard the songs think they're at least OK, some of us love them. And no, it seems there's hardly any talk about anything at all over there. Why does anyone *pay* for the privilege?

[southp]

I only listened to LB as I had already heard the wrigley version once. Gotaa say I'm a little underwhelmed by that one. Hoping the others are better.

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by the other 3 =)

And Lightning Bolt will grow. The production is a shock at first.
