Really liking 'Lolita'! I remember being in love with 'Everything I'm Not' back in 2006, haha. I wasn't a fan of their second album, but this new one sounds promising.

This is pretty much the soundtrack to my life at the moment. :wub: I'd all but lost interest in these girls, but it's safe to say my obsession has been revitalised.
This is very much a grower (as well as being instant!). It's fantastic, seriously. I really hope the album is more in a similar vein to this!

The underlying bassline reminds me so much of Lights by Ellie Goulding, especially when it's slightly distorted in the Bassnectar remix!

 

Really really good stuff anyway, I didn't have amazing excitement for this but I just thought I'd listen and I'm glad I did. If the album is anything like this count me in!

I couldn't find a topic about the album, but I thought I'd create one as we now have a lot of information about it.

 

It's up for pre-order in Aus and released on November 21st there, there will be news for other territories coming tomorrow. It's a self titled album, and here is the cheaptastic and bland cover:

People in Aus who pre-order get a track called 'Line Of Fire' as an instant grat, which can be heard here!

 

There are 14 tracks on the standard edition, there will be a deluxe with more tracks.

 

I can't believe this is happening, after all these years! 'Line Of Fire' is also ACE! :cheer:

There was a topic so I've merged it. :D Very interested to hear this album as 'You Ruin Me' was an unexpected but wonderful surprise!
Excited to hear this, the album cover picture isn't too bad but that logo is rather ugly.
Line of Fire is my everything right now.

The album is very 'classic Veronicas' on first listen, especially the fantastic Born Bob Dylan. Good to see they haven't deviated from their sound too much.

 

Love the weird chord progressions in Always too, reminds me of South African duo The Arrows.

So I gave the album a listen after being so impressed by YRM & IYLS and it's a brilliant album overall. Track 1 started off promising but then I didn't think it went anywhere hence not liking it but I've loved every other track. Currently up to "More Like Me" and it's sounding gorgeous! Mad Love, Born Bob Dylan & Teenage Millionaire are my other highlights so far.

The last few at the end kinda got boring though.

Good job girls!

I just gave this album a listen in full, I'm satisfied with it after one listen! I thought that it didn't have their grit/spunk/angst/whatever but the second half really picked up for me, to be honest I love the whole album after one listen except 'Sanctified' and 'Teenage Millionaire', but I trust they will grow on me (even if 'Sanctified' sounded like a complete mess).

 

'Cold' is absolutely amazing, and 'Let Me Out' is as perfect as ballads come. :wub: Other highlights (bar the two singles) are 'Cruel', 'Born Bob Dylan' and 'Mad Love'.

The album has debuted at #2 in Australia, matching the peak of the Veronicas' other albums. It also reached gold certification in its first week which is a terrific start!
