Balance and Composure - Light We Made (Oct 7 2016) Album • Page 13

didn't see that comment

 

I'm really happy about the direction they are going. Oddly enough, I'm getting a Hot Fuss era The Killers vibe from this song. Obviously it leans towards Balance & Composure's post-grunge tendencies but it still reminds me of dark, 80's inspired, synth-pop but with less pop.

 

that was talking about title fight

 

I was generally speaking, should have been more specific, sorry! Feels like the general trend based on social media about the band today.

 

I think it's cool they went with this one first, and not a safer choice like this

 

very fun song, i hope it's followed up with an absolute banger of a track. It could have been a 30 seconds- a minute shorter but ultimately excited about this direction.

 

The Rising Tide is such an underrated album.

 

This is a far more interesting song than anything on the previous record, so I'm pretty curious to hear where they go with the rest of the album.

 

Starting to straight-up love this song. I don't mind the track length at all, I always end up replaying songs that are this hypnotic anyways

 

good post

 

That new song sounds like they're trying to write their own Songs Of Faith and Devotion. I dig it. Can't handle people who hate anything as soon as there's a bit of an electronic influence to it.

 

some vocals sound like mwY

 

I was at that show. Don't know why wqaq insists on having shows in the gym.

 

I love the song I've listened like 10 times

 

I didn't like this song at all on first listen, but warming up to it now I've listened to it again.

 

Loved the last album so obviously I little cold on the new single but it has moments. Dig that live song you posted though. Regardless will pre order when it goes live here in a bit.

 

I like the song. I like the drums. Parts of that riff still sounds too similar to I Might Be Wrong and it puts me a little off. All the other radiohead comparisons in here I don't agree with really.

They've likely been listening to some kraut rock and some Interpol

 

Returning to TTWTWM because of this. Still really enjoy the album, still don't enjoy how arpeggioy every song is.

 

I can get behind this. excited to hear this in context with the rest of the album.

 

this is easily my favorite song ive heard of theirs

 

Damn, this song is so much better and more interesting than anything on TTWTWM, which was so awful. Really happy this band decided to take a huge creative risk. Also, I imagine this song sounding fucking awesome live.

 

I love it. If the rest of the record is up to this caliber it will by far be their best work.

 

i like how the volume of his voice on this. since hyperview was mentioned, i like how this one is low enough that i have to pay extra attention to understand, but not so low that it's buried under everything where i can only get the melody with snippets of actual words if i don't have the lyric sheet in front of me. i loved hyperview though. enjoying the single more i listen to it too, less bothered by the time.

 

yip produced this, right?

 

yep
