Glass Animals - How To Be A Human Being (August 26, 2016) Album • Page 5

Cool read

Glass Animals on the characters of their new record

 

I really, really love the first three songs on this album, especially Youth. Incredible groove. Still digging in to the rest.

 

Pork Soda makes me feel like one of the cool kids

 

This is catchy as hell

 

listened to this again today, damn is it good.

 

wonder what the live show is gonna be like for this... there are two shows in nyc, I feel like the day I pick is the day they won't play Exxus or Psylla which I really want to hear live.

 

this band is opening one of the nights and they sound amazing

the other night's opener is D.R.A.M. which is pretty weird lol

 

Still bitter that they cancelled the Atlanta date

 

damn they did? that sucks :- /

 

Yeah, one of the venues sent an email about Glass Animals coming as what would have been the first show of the tour, and then an hour later sent an email saying it was cancelled

 

This is one of those albums that makes me push the limits of how loud I can listen to it before getting a headache, haha

 

haha every time pre made sandwiches comes on I immediatley want to turn it up to max volume for the drop into Other Side Of Paradise

 

Yep, same here. Same with when Pork Soda comes on

 

have been listening to this a lot and haven't even gone back to Zaba yet so that's a good sign

 

Tried going back to Zaba today, but this has much stronger and energetic songs. Couldn't make it through Zaba without turning this back on ahah

 

This is probably in the running for my AOTY. I'd be surprised if I don't put it in my top 5 somewhere. I love every minute of this album

 

I mean I love Zaba a lot, this album is just really doing it for me right now though. So many different worlds rather than just one lol

 

tbh i dug this a ton the first week it was out, and now i haven't had much desire to go back. not saying i don't like it anymore, it just didn't have a lot of staying power for me.

i'm sure i'll go back to it again in the future and enjoy it.

 

I'm in love with this album so much. On constant repeat. Album flows really well. I love how the songs grow on you. Like besides the initial standouts for me (life itself, youth, otherside of paradise), s2e3 and pork soda, and mama's gun probably took me like 5 listens before I got into them. Also I think the last 4 songs really end the album well. Agnes gutted me with the lyrics. so beautiful.

 

agreed! very strong album opening

 

yeah I was definitely skeptical about a few songs but now I really like them all. Take A Slice is my new fav right now.

 

i'll say that "the other side of paradise" is fucking dope and i get hyped when it comes on

 

The drop at the beginning of Pork Soda puts me on the floor every time.

 

woof!

 

Never seen them live before, but I don't think the singer was that good in this performance tbh. It's a hard song to sing but the chorus sounds awful live.
