Reminds me of the artwork for Scars by Basement Jaxx for reasons quite unknown. This looks cheap as hell though. Have they just given up trying?

God you aren't half tedious when it comes to these lot Jark.

 

It looks brilliant! I think Night Work is better, purely because it's much more of a statement cover, but yeah that'll do nicely.

The album cover is pretty amazing, I love it. :heart:

 

The video, on the other hand, is a huge disappointement for me. 4 minutes of horses running and a few seconds of the band's faces at the end. YAY. :huh:

Same here. Love the cover though.

 

& I like the video but I wish I was sold on the song more. It's just not clicking with me.

Looooooove this :wub: It is a lil trendy (and Calvin Harris-y but didn't he produce it? so duh) but We Found Love was one of the best pop songs of the last yr so who cares ~* Also since house music comes from a very, very gay background it sounds way more appropriate/honest when Scissor Sisters do it as opposed to some straight dudes

So I heard the album the other day thanks to a friend who works for Polydor, and it's quite good. Most excitingly, and for an unknown reason, the stand-out track 'Let's Have A Kiki' (Ana's track) is now available for streaming and download on Spotify: http://t.co/Z91wvnce

 

So I'll be samba'ing to that all day.

Did you read my post at all? No, it hasn't.

 

Oh right i didn't see the polydor bit i thought it said a friend i work for. :lol:

It's a shame what's happened to them chartwise over the years...in 2004 they seriously were one of my favourite bands ever, I remember hearing 'Laura' for the first time and being somewhat blown away, ditto all their other first album tracks. Then 'I Don't Feel Like Dancin' was number 1 on my 18th birthday, which I was really happy with and played it to death at the time :D

 

'Fire With Fire' is an absolute forgotten classic and I still have no idea what happened for it to underperform, it's an incredible song. 'Only The Horses'...yeah, agreed with what everyone's said, kind of half-heartedly doing the Guetta-sound but just not sticking in the mind enough, I've already forgotten it after the first listen. Saying that it sounds as generic as half the songs in the chart recently have been, so maybe it could be a hit after all :P Especially with The Voice!

 

*listens to Fire With Fire again*

It's got my hopes back up for the album! I do like Shady Love and Only The Horses but they're slightly disappointing compared to past form to be honest.

They were SENSATIONAL live. Easily the greatest live act I've ever seen - so much energy! And I've 180'd on my thoughts on Ana - clearly NOT just a tambourine merchant hag along for the ride, but rather the heart and soul of the group.

 

Has anybody heard album track and likely second single Baby Come Home? People who liked the singles of the first album more than anything since (stuff like Laura/Take Your Mama) will probably enjoy this more, even if the more blinkered out there (NAMING NO NAMES) will probably just screech 'retread!' and devote themselves to hating something they'd already decided to hate before they listened.

 

I personally think it's terrific but then I'm biased ~

I think the album will have no bother chrting top 5 or higher i just up it can have a steady chart run and sell at least reasonably well.
With sales as they are at the moment I think the album will be an easy #1. Well, I'd HOPE.
