September 2, 20195 yr Author Absolutely love this! Reminds me a bit of The Smiths (which is always a welcome comparison for me), and I'm happy it's a nice long track at 5:32. lSsi6cTsz-M
September 2, 20195 yr bit disappointing he sounds again too much like brandom flowers he's so inconsistent :/
September 2, 20195 yr Author Or maybe that's just his voice? :P He sounds no different than his other releases.
September 7, 20195 yr Literally can’t wait for the album - I’ve heard most of the songs at his shows and am so ready for him to dominate the charts.
September 7, 20195 yr Can't wait for this. The Borders does sound more like Springsteen and The Killers than they do though. Roll on next Fri!
September 8, 20195 yr He’s already racked up just under 16k on pre-orders from his website, launch shows and Amazon so should easily get the well deserved #1 place :yahoo: Hopefully he’ll manage to sneak in the Top 40 singles too with ‘Will We Talk’

Where did you hear about those sales?
September 9, 20195 yr That's class for him, prob helped by the long time the albums been on as a preorder and the delays - means he will likely sell 40k imo!
September 9, 20195 yr That's class for him, prob helped by the long time the albums been on as a preorder and the delays - means he will likely sell 40k imo! The multiple formats have really helped too - the UK exclusive mini disc has sold out along with the signed CD on his official website and 50% of the picture discs have sold too. He’s signed 6,000 CDs and Vinyl for Amazon which will help attract some sales.
September 11, 20195 yr Went to both of his album launch shows at Banquet last night - amazing to see him in a tiny venue although I know it’s going to be one of the last times. After his upcoming UK tour he’ll be moving onto Arenas.
September 11, 20195 yr 16K pre orders is pretty impressive!! I can see this being one of those long running like albums. I have a feeling he’s due a big single sometime soon but it’ll come from a big TV slot promo boost.
September 12, 20195 yr Can't wait to hear this tomorrow morning, even if we have already heard over half of it. Looking forward to listening to the singles in an album context.
September 12, 20195 yr Every single review has been positive so far. I think the first week sales and longevity will take a few people by surprise - it’s the R1 album of the weekend this week too. The Guardian 4/5 NME 4/5 Independent 4/5 Telegraph 4/5 AllMusic 4/5 Q 4/5 Metacritic 84%
September 12, 20195 yr ^^ Literally waiting up to stream it and have got a HEFTY amount of physicals arriving tomorrow. He said at his album launch shows there would definitely be a deluxe version with bonus tracks released too.
September 12, 20195 yr Author I would tonight if I didn't have to get up early tomorrow - can't wait though!
September 12, 20195 yr It's already an 8/10 without me hearing the new songs. Can't wait to see how the likes of Play God and That Sound work in an album context. The latter reminds me of being freezing cold as it was big (on the radio) in January! Dead Boys is a classic autumn masterpiece too. Edited September 12, 20195 yr by Hiyaluv
