downloading right now

the songs they have released so far have been pretty good
>>
>>70459077
these fags have to be like 40 now and music that sounds like its for 12 year olds
>>
>>70459138
First time on /mu/ in two years, came looking for this. Thanks dude.
>>
>>70459077
Disappointing. Saying it's anything above a 6/10 is a huge stretch.
>>
meh
>>
it lacks everything that made them great?
it's an alright record they can write a song, but where is the rawness they used to have? the out of tune double vocals?
>>
any one have a mega link? can't access zippy

>>70463156
Try newalbumreleases.net.

So unbelievably disappointing.

Yo im three tracks in and this stuff is just some watered down versions of their former material I am beyond disappointed so far
>>
They have a really basic formula, so if you like Japandroids songs, these are some more of them.
>>
>>70459077
Nice thanks for the heads up
>>
>>70464821
I kinda disagree. In some songs, yes, you can see them sticking to the formula, but in others you see them trying new things (and, to me at least, falling flat on their faces). Also, there's clearly a new aesthetic approach that differs from their usual sound, and I think that also adds up to my general disappointment with the record.

>>70465830

I love the old formula. Some of this sounds really canadian-gay right now, but I'm going to give it a few re-listens

It's 192 senpai

i don't really follow them but thought their last album was alright

why has it taken them 5 years to put out another one?
>>
>>70469967
The last tour they went on had like, 200 or so dates. Non-stop gigging pretty much blew out all their gears so they took the last couple years off.

In a body like a grave sounds like it have potential

On first listen I would rate it 6/10 but might rise with future listens

Overall I'm gonna rate this album 6.5-7/10
Okay album but not at all on par with their previous records

>tfw thread is dead and no one will ever read this

literally who?
