keep reading this in an irish accent (in my head)

This album is not good. His voice sounds soooooooo bad, guy can’t sing anymore and they’re trying to cover it up with reverb. First couple songs are actually okay but not good enough to come back and listen to. Shame, I thought they made a decent comeback with El Pintor having some good songs on it but this is boring.

I think his natural singing voice is fine but in interviews he always says how after OLTA he got a singing coach who pushes him out of his comfort zone - hence the recent silly bits.

It’s like, mate, you sounds like the dude in low register and embarrassing anywhere else. A loved one needs to tell him.

Yes can’t stand the production. I guess they were trying to do something different with the higher singing?

Enjoyed the Albert Hall last night but hearing the new stuff live has not convinced me- Interpol by numbers. Quite like Flight of Fancy though.

STage times for RAH?

Scheduled for 8.15 but came on around 9.

Danke schön!

Manchester tonight. NYSMAW is one of their best for ages, no ?

Last night was incredible, I didn’t think this band still effected me so much. I got to meet them afterwards and I couldn’t help just being a total fawning fanboy

You got the best setlist too! Yes know what you mean- just love them so much. Leif still floors me every time. I think I have managed to have one sensible conversation with them over 15 years of shows :grinning: (to Daniel about playing The New again).

It’s Ok but I like a lot of songs on El Pintor more.

Not seen the Apollo that full in ages. Was a surprise really, given they did TOBTL at Albert Hall. Lovely stuff.

If they do an Antics anniversary tour they should call it the Antics Roadshow

saw they’re also playing SWG3 in Glasgow which is tiny for them

I’d assumed it’d be the galvanised yard@swg3 where LCD played last year but I could be wrong.

The sound at that was a bit crap

yeah it is that. apparently 4,000 capacity though? £50 a go.
