I think this may just say negative things about my own tastes, but that description really sells that album to me.

Oh great, the thread gets bumped and it’s just someone slagging them off again

most defensive thread on DiS? They’re popular enough to have their detractors, just like the Idles thread has plenty. :man_shrugging:

If anything you should be more defensive of your son(s)!

New album has already been mixed! Quite enjoying the rate they’re putting stuff out, hope it’s as good as the last two

Guess there was nothing better to do with the lack of touring :sweat_smile:

They said on the Reddit AMA that the album sounds like they’ve all had a big sleep and recovered from the non-stop touring of the last few years (apologies if this is in the article too), gently indicating it might be less dead-eyed than the last…

I think something ever so slightly sunnier would be a great vibe from them - the songwriting on Hero’s Death was much improved, but you could hear the bags under their eyes, so hopefully that’s true.

Dead happy we might be getting a new single in June.

i really liked that part of it, how it was both loud and punchy, yet drowsy and flat

but I really enjoy their straightforward melodic ballads plenty as it is, so I’ll take something more upbeat happily

So I guess the next one based on their current trajectory will sound like this
