Maybe he listened to the wrong album

 

No because he said "Life In Drag" was a cool song

 

Most people I work with probably don't expect that I'm listening to Brandi Carlile right now.

 

@bachna84 here's the review. Please read the bolded. Woof


Overtime I've heard a lot about The Hotelier, and a lot of good things to be exact. I've never gotten around to them up until now. Upon listening to this album I'm just not sure how I feel about it. I was expecting a banger to be honest, The first track " An Introduction To The Album " just didn't set the tone for me, I feel like a solid opener is very, very important. The opening track just didn't catch my attention, I was just waiting and waiting for something big to happen and it just left me hanging. A couple of things about this album really bugged me, the vocals being one, I think it's in main part because that style is just so over done and I feel like every song sounded the same. But I will say Life In Drag is a pretty sweet song. I have mad respect for these guys and what they do. It just didn't connect with me like I thought it would. Thank you for the rec ! Much love my man ! Also, sorry how shitty this review came out, I'm sure I'll get better as time goes.


Every song sounded the same? I can't even

 

Everyone should listen to this:

 

It’s a good album. Not perfect but pretty darn good.

 

I will say this. I think that Goodness may have officially taken over as my favorite Hotelier record

 

At least he recognized how terrible the review was ;)

 

never heard it.

 

What album cover is that again?

 

Butch Walker!!!

 

On my first listen. "The Joke" is a perfect song, one of the best I've heard this year. I'm really liking "Hold Out Your Hand" too, but the opener didn't do much for me.

 

Can't get into them

 

Butch Walker is the fuckin' man.

 

Who did that review?

 

It's okay. I think the new MGMT is a snoozefest. Call it even?

 

I meant nothing by that. Just meant they seemed like a band I should like. Good day.

 

@ him Larry!

 

Wait! Don't go!

 

I know everybody here is super invested in what I listen to on a daily basis so I'm currently listening to

H o m e l i k e n o p l a c e t h e r e is

 

Fuck, "Dendron" is the GOAT always though

 

You probably heard some of their singles back in the late-90's/early-00's: "Freak of the Week", "Sugarbuzz", and "Get Over".

 

I’m reviewing it for CMCS so stay tuned.

 

This makes me so happy. Also cool what you did with the spoiler tags by the way

 

I mean I can always look through the thread.
