I saw them live last week and can confirm these new songs are great live I think it would be really bold if they played the whole thing in full for the first half of the set
I'm really enjoying this, didn't expect that. Very, very Bowie influenced imo, and that's fine with me.
Lyrics from this keep popping into my head throughout the day. There's so many gems on this album. "Can I please have my money back -- my virtual reality mask is stuck on "Parliament Brawl" "I just wanted to be one of those ghosts......don't you know an apparition is a cheap date?" "I'm just a bad girl trying to be good, I've got a laser guiding my love that I cannot adjust"
This is a dense record. 10 listens or so...and everytime I like something new...and dislike something else. Need to go deep with headphones a few more times. I really want to know what their live show "feels" like now
This is a great record, probably their best. This will for sure go down (as of right now) the quintessential AM record. This is the one that will endure 20 years from now.
What a ballsy move. Gotta respect it. Arguably the biggest guitar band in the world....5 year hiatus, snag a bunch of major festival headlining slots...and then drop a wordy piano driven record about living on the moon. Here for it.
