that single was awful. Is the rest decent ?

No, it really isn't.

As a KoL apologist, I approve of it so far. They are on autopilot here, but I like the sound they've slowly morphed into.

And why does their production always sound so good? Some other bands need to take notes.

This album. Lol.

This song remains great.

First half of the video i'm thinking isn't this what Springsteen did with Brilliant Disguise....second half yikes! Biggest surprise of all was that the lead singer was cool with the wind blowing in his face after spending the last 5 years trying to hide that baldness.

That moment with him ¨singing¨ at the camera, putting all those kinda sad, kinda serious faces was one of the most embarrassing things i saw in 2016.

they are literally not the same band. its really disgusting what happened to them.

wow, all that hair.

yeah its a pretty good song

These days I couldn't really give a toss about this band.. I will still throw on either of the first two records from time to time, but they really don't have many songs I love. Live versions of trani still get me and fans has one of best grooves ever.


Point is, they have been around and been massive for so long, you would think they would have more than a handful of great songs. They were big in Australia from their debut, but my relationship with them is one of rapidly diminishing returns. I check out every new album, and it just don't move me any more.

Man I really liked this band about 10 years ago. Their first three records are great. Sort of Lynyrd Skynyrd-Tom Petty meets the Strokes. Sex on fire/Use Somebody made them huge, too bad they made those songs a template for the rest of their career. When I heard that latest single 'waste a moment' I thought it was ok. Then I listened to songs like: 'Red morning light', 'four kick', 'charmer' or 'king of the rodeo' and was like: 'Man, that new songs sucks'

I feel the same way. I haven't enjoyed their sound since the 3rd record. I have the 4th but don't listen to it and I don't know if there were any more between that and this.

Been listening to Come Around Sundown lately and I've concluded that this is an excellent and underrated album.

The two after that are crap, though.
