Amazing album!

In a week that so many great artists are releasing (The Weeknd, Arctic Monkeys, Janelle Monae...), I'm finding myself listening to nothing but this and that surely says something. And I like how the popjustice review compares it to 'Ghosts'!

Really liking this. It's lived up to most of my expectations anyway. Seems like a right grower too. I do half want her to just strut out and burst into Shark in the Water half-way through but i can deal without it i guess.

 

The last bit of Igenous WOW.

'The Apple' for one of the best pop songs of the year sung in the vein of Grace Jones but still different enough and unique in its own way

The Apple may be wonderous but I can not stop listening to Igenous now, it is fast becoming my song of the year.

The second half is much better than the first half, isn't it? Faith, Knife and Warrior are amazing!

It's all about 'Igneous' and 'Knife' for me! Definitely one of the albums of the year.

Wouldn't have been my first choice but next single is 'Faith' with Kele Okereke.

 

 

i bellyflop into a swimming pool of sound :wub:

 

In my top 3 albums of the past 12 months now. Just can't stop coming back to it.

11 Ghosts

10 Knife

06 Beginning

As if it wasn't perfect already... KELE :wub:

Such a welcome surprise collaboration!

 

Same for me about the album, incredible.

I'm actually disappointed that Faith is the next single; Ghosts, Igneous & I Can Give You More scream for release (or video treatment at least).

Would have loved 'Ghosts' to get a release as it's become such a special song for me. Didn't resonate with me initially but it's just an absolute powerhouse now. The fact that it seems to end so soon too just adds to the charm because it means you HAVE to play it again instantly.

 

Most played song of the past 3 months.

i must admit i haven't played the album as much as i should do. if at all tbh. 'faith' is absolutely beautiful. i think this record is just sonically so on point, those wishy washy synths really capturing the essence of v v's lyrics.

 

also, i'm still agog at the change around she's gone through to such quality. who would have predicted. who would have thought.

 

Just listened to Faith (cos Kele) and it's a BEAUT. been totally ignoring this but i think it's time for a dl.

Listening to this and it's really quite a special album, isn't it?

 

:wub:

Well let's be honest it's not as if she has MUCH

It's all one scene, she could at least film a second one.

Deceptively simple, but beautiful video. There's only a handful of females around now that i prefer to her. All off the back of one special album <3

 

And 'Ghosts' simply has to happen.
