The Armed - Perfect Saviors (August 25th 2023) Album • Page 4

Song fucking rips. So groovy. Hyped to dance to this one live next week.

 

holy shit

this is wild and I love it

Nov 16 - Hot Mulligan
Nov 17 - Foxing/The Hotelier
Nov 17 - The Armed?!

 

we’re so close

 

I loved only love but never listened to ultrapop much, but man that fader article rules lol

 

okay okay so at first i thought they were being all hyperbolic calling their new album the 'best rock album of the 21st century' but now that i've heard it i think they might be right???? idk man fuck

 

I heard it might turn off some core fans but that's progress

 

what's your favorite song on it?

 

How’d you guys hear this? Also so stoked

 

can't wait

 

honestly, the entire first half just completely does it for me. track two and three are both like, guitar driven indie rock songs, which i could see turning off old fans, but they do it *so* perfectly. track four brings in the screaming, we already know everything's glitter is amazing, it just doesn't quit. so so solid.

 

this is going to take some getting used to lol

it's pretty great so far

 

Feel free to correct me or tell me this has already been discussed elsewhere, but I am about 99% sure this band lip syncs at LEAST their vocals live. Saw them open for Queens of the Stone Age a few weeks ago and was not even remotely impressed.

The one vocalist was stage diving and vocal tracks were clear despite the microphone being nowhere close to her mouth.

Can't say I understand the hype, here.

 

oh my Burned Mind is so sick and exactly what I was dreaming of for this project

 

probably because they don't perform the songs on the record either

 

Gotcha - so they're actors. Cool makes sense then.

 

you can watch multiple videos from very close to the stage that clearly show they aren’t lip syncing or fake playing at all and at worst have a few backing tracks for backing vocals/instruments like 99.9% of other bands

 

have not seen the armed live but surely "99.9%" is a tremendous overstatement

anyway I am delighted and somewhat surprised to say this album largely rips

 

Sometimes they have back up singers as part of their stage set up. Wearing make up and masks and shit. Coulda been that?

 

Is The Armed actually Slipknot?

 

We certainly can't rule it out.

 

The only time I saw them it was so smoky and strobelighty that I would never know if they were actually singing or not lol.

 

love Modern Vanity

 

Vatican Under Construction is my favorite so far

Clone is incredible
