The New Broken Social Scene Album

<< < (4/5) > >>

Johnny C:
I'll just wait to buy it. Yeah, I'm a chump.

Jarne:
The album sounds like "Pacific Theme" but stretched out for an hour, which is a shame because the reason why I liked You Forget It In People was because the songs where so different.
Not that I don't like it, but more variaty in the album would have helped it.

Agreed - they all kind of mush together a bit.  Which ain't good; although the few songs that stand out slightly (7/4 / Shorelines, although I'm not partial to the vochals; Fire Eye'd Boy; Swimmers; Windsurfing Nation) are excellent.  If BSS were really smart they'd be monitoring the situation and taking suggestions.  DO IT.

Jarne:
After a few more listens, it really seems like a step back for them.
Listen to "Feel Good Lost". It's hard to tell the differences between the songs.
In "You Forget it in People", you can tell the songs apart without even trying (except "Bedroom Rock" and "Shampoo Suicide" which blend together a bit).
The songs from this one all blend together, but not as much as in "Feel Good Lost".
So, a step back, but it's still great.

ASturge:
I like this one more then You Forgot it in People.

I don't know.....seems a little more structured to me.
