HA that's funny. I Only Wanna Talk to You always reminded me of The Verve, and Noel has said that Cast No Shadow is an homage to the Verve. Now I'm hearing CNS in the verses.
I Only Wanna Talk To You is my favorite song by this band. It just feels so naked and exposed. LLL falls into the rare category of “perfect album” for me but that song in particular is just so raw in the best way.
I definitely regret not buying that on vinyl when it came out. Also regret not ranking it higher on my decade list.
If you aren’t watching the livestream, I highly suggest you do once it’s uploaded to Pillar. They’re about halfway through and this is the best setlist of any the streams they’ve done.
As time goes on I realize more and more that LLL is one of my favorite records, period. Just an absolute masterpiece.
Last two songs were highlights too. Definitely a good album outside of High Forever. Feels like a step down from YAO to me though.
Anxiety reminds me of The Night Game. Listened to this several times this weekend going to and from the beach. Can't wait to just do the same exact thing next weekend
Either way, DPB and anxiety are two of my all time favorites from this band and that alone makes this thing a win. What great tunes.
Idk I think it’s kinda basic and boring but I don’t hate it as much as I usually hate songs if the same ilk
