Backwards Dancer - Backwards Dancer (March 3, 2017) Album • Page 3

I weirdly hear Andrew mcmahon too

 

First listen of this was alright, had a couple interruptions so I don't think that helped any haha. Made it feel a lot longer than it actually was. Some cool stuff in there though! Didn't expect some of the softer stuff, so that was a nice surprise.

 

oh wow, definitely. nailed it.

 

The Manchester orchestra brand new all get out crowd. Needs to get introduced to this, it feels like a perfect alt rock record. Would be very surprised if this doesn't finish in my top 10 this year

 

I wanna listen to this but I keep forgetting and I don't want to just put it on in the background while I do other things :/ I like the differing opinions I'm reading, makes it so I don't know what to expect

 

Tracks 1-5 are ace.
Loses some steam after that for me. But still. Enjoy

 

Saw these guys live last night and asked Zack afterwards if there will be a vinyl pressing. He said there will be eventually- but not until this fall.

 

mostly just listening to the world is watching on repeat

 

Idk I think the whole thing is great but that track is really cool

 

Wasn't a huge fan on first listen but it's definitely growing on me, overt 'mall emo' influences aside.

 

the first song is sooo good

 

I love "Artists as Characters" so much.

 

the opening 5 song stretch on this is soo good i can't even handle it.

 

This hasn't caught on with people here like I thought it would

 

yeah. this and oso oso is all i've been listening to this week. bummer.

 

I was thinking the same thing this morning. Really surprised.

 

I checked it out and the first half was pretty cool but it just kind of lost me in the second half. I might give it another shot soon but there is just so much music I'm trying to keep up with and this didn't make a strong enough impression on me to really stand out.

 

Yeah i enjoyed this but it didnt warrant full album repeat listens like some other recent stuff, though there are some great individual tracks. I really love I Saw Your Spirit and wish more of this record was like that

 

I def think the front half wins but still a hell of a debut.

 

I saw your spirit one time and it never left me

 

the guitars on the chorus on breathe life into beauty are so fuckin simple and generic but i air guitar and head bang every time they come on

 

Not too big on this

 

The vocal melodies of this are super weird, especially when reading along to the lyrics. Not sure how I feel about it yet.

First half is cool tho, idk about the second.

 

Vocals kinda give me a vendetta red vibe

 

This is boring as hell.
