Reflektor and Everything Now were absolute shit. I’m with @littlebirds here.

Would agree with this. The next album’s a big one though, if that’s shite too then it’ll be quite hard to come back from.

Dude the last two albums were shit. It is fine. You’re still allowed to like them. Don’t worry about it.

It was unforgettably awful, true enough

:wink:

Odd quoting me and saying this when you’re the one crying about how shit they’ve become, Win.

Goodness me, man. There’s a safety WINk and everything

I mean, there’s nothing really to ‘come back from’ is there? They’re doing arena tours and probably getting seven figures to headline festivals, even on the back of a duff album. They’re hardly on the ropes.

Aye that was me. Ach it’s not the worst, I like about half of the stuff on it.

Don’t see one in all seriousness

Why I oughta shakes fist

If you click on the pink square below it reveals a safety wink. Apologies if I made it too disguised - genuinely not wanting to start proper beef with anyone even if I am baffled by some people’s views on here.

Anyway, I’m just off the train into Paris now so signing off. Enjoy your re-evaluations of Reflektor!

Reflektor 1 has some undeniable bops, Reflektor 2 is all killer no filler. I still enjoy listening to it all the way through, because I like that it’s very nearly brilliant but just doesn’t get the first half quite right.

I could gladly never hear anything off Everything Now ever again though, especially Creature Comfort :nauseated_face:

Creatures Comfort is one of their best songs there I said it

If it wasn’t for the saviour complex it’d be a great track

I don’t read it that way, personally

Probably my favourite ‘huge’ rock band and definitely one of the best live bands I’ve ever seen.

Having said that, Everything Now isn’t great - here’s hoping the middle stretch of songs remains their low point forever.

Has anyone heard the recent Richard Reed Parry album?

Yes and I think it’s great!
