Los Campesinos! - Sick Scenes (February 24th, 2017) Album • Page 17

Maybe they could get Alecks back for a tour???

 

time to go request a refund from my UK order lmao. if i knew this was happening i wouldnt of paid the 60$ for shipping when i can pay 0$ and just pick up from the A&C office downtown

 

They’re announcing a 2018 North American tour next week.

Genuinely surprised they’re gona do it so soon after Kim and Jason’s baby, unless someone is filling in for them.

 

I’m still crossing my fingers for Alecks. Celebrating the anniversary and everything, it really wouldn’t surprise me.

 

Kim’s in.

 

Bad ass I hope the baby comes on stage with them and plays the glockenspiel

 

I hope baby plays the death rattle.

 

When did she have the baby? Can you take super young infants on international flights?

 

I'd like to see them live. I didn't care for No Blues, but the energy and creativity on this album really makes me think their shows must be a lot of fun with how diverse their catalog is now.

 

Whaaaaat No Blues is amazing.

 

But yes, they are amazing live.

 

Recently been jamming Romance is Boring. This band is so consistent.

 

Romance is Boring is my favorite. So good.

 

Anyone else watching this England World Cup run and think to themselves: "We're going to get one hell of a Los Campesinos! song/album out of this?"

 

By the way, No Blues is my favorite LC! album. I think it's the most complete from the start (For Flotsam, What Death Leaves Behind ) to a solid middle (Cemetery Gaits, As Lucerne/The Low, Avocado Baby) and an epic ending (Selling Rope).

I'll admit, Sick Scenes hasn't gelled with me the way I was hoping it would. There are songs I love (such as the run of The Fall of Home, 5F, and Here's to the Fourth Time), but the last few songs lose me until Hung Empty.

 

I need this tour to complete my life. I missed LC!/Titus Andronicus in Atlanta during college, and I will never stop regretting it.

 

If there isn't at least an Every Defeat A Divorce Part II then I'll be fucking SHOCKED.

@matthaber what did you order? if there's a HONY repress on clear with alternate artwork going back on sale I'd love a heads up *cough*

 

Yay Toronto

 

Fuckin hell, Illuminati Hotties and Adult Mom opening. Hell yeah.

 

It’s annoying that Romance is Boring isn’t included in more “Best Albums of the 2010s” lists. It’s perfect.

 

I'm really not a fan of their pre-Romance is Boring stuff but I'll give the remasters a shot
