What’s tvotr?

 

tv on the radio

 

Bastardizer could be a The Cure song

 

Tv on the radio

 

I've finally given this a few listens. Bastardizer was my favourite early. It surprised me to see so many people like Grand Paradise best. It's good I just thought the next two tracks were better. And I never would have guessed 5 Cups went for that long just listening to the whole album.

 

So I can officially say that I do really love this record other than Crown Candy, which I actually find to be quite bad.

 

The chorus of Crown Candy actually got stuck in my head this morning

 

I like Crown Candy but boy is it awkward to sing, " I wasted my life on you" whith your SO in the car with you haha.

 

I think the song is about wasting his life on God. If that helps you.

 

If only there was a way to not do that

 

Bastardizer and title track are the best. And grand paradise

 

I love Bastardizer so much, and it feels so single ready, almost radio-ready, I'm surprised they haven't put more focus on it.

 

Ive said it probably ten times but Eric’s vocals in that song go in

 

what is the stringed instrument used during the chorus of Trapped In Dillard's? I don't know how to properly describe it.

 

maybe i wasn't in the right mood for it, but i couldn't get through more that 4 songs. i was boooored... i'll have to give it another try when i'm in more of a mellow/sad/lazy mood or something.

 

nothing about this album is mellow

 

Weird, Grand Paradise and Lich Prince are more energetic than most Foxing songs.

 

my band opened for them once, but other than seeing them in that live setting, i've never listened to them so i wouldn't really be able to speak on if their other songs are less energetic. but yeah, i actually thought "Grand Paradise" was a pretty cool song.

i think when i was listening to it yesterday for the first time, i was looking for something more energetic. i ended up putting on Vein instead so maybe that is a better explanation for what i was saying in my original post, haha.

 

Grand Paradise —> Slapstick —> Lich Prince

Boring????




BRAAAAAAD. Wrong answer, try again!!!

 

Ah yeah. If you're in the mood for Vein this probably won't cut it, haha.

 

yeeeeah i wasn't really into it in that moment. shrug. all week i was looking forward to listening to it on my drive to band practice yesterday, but when it finally came time to do it, i wasn't in the mood to listen to it. so i still haven't given it a fair chance (or a full listen) yet

 

at least you turned it off four songs in so we don’t have to hear what would almost definitely be a bad take on five cups

 

First off, I'm loving this record after the first week and am excited to keep listening. I haven't really gotten the chance to sit down and really focus on it 100% but hopefully I can sit down with the lyrics tonight and really digest those. My early favotires besides the singles are probably Grand Paradise, Bastardizer, & Lich Prince. That doesn't mean I don't enjoy the others, those are just the major standouts for me currently.

Secondly, I played this for my girlfriend and she thinks Bastardizer sounds like a Dave Matthews song so theres that comparison for you

 

Someone yesterday said Bastardizer sounded like Coldplay.

Coldplay, Dave Matthews,.....Foxing

 

It honestly does sound like Coldplay, their earlier stuff, which had some bops
