My first play when The Key to Life On Earth came out left me underwhelmed. I revisited it the other day and I'm not sure what I was on, I think I might prefer it to Beautiful Faces...! Hype restored for this album :D
I think it's a great track, love the video too, can tell the pair just want to burst out in laughter at each other.
The video for 'The Key To Life On Earth' is great! Song is decent but was another step down from 'Beautiful Faces' with both still being far below 'British Bombs' for me.
I think it's great nice pop song and pretty instant for me, my current no1 on my personal chart following a number one for 'Beautiful Faces'!
This is sounding pretty nice! Not as good as Beautiful Faces on first listen but that was definitely a grower so this could very well be as well.

Update: It's now my favourite song of the year so far.

This must be the lead for the album, hope it's up to the standard of the first two releases. On first listen it's different but hard to say.

Album has been pushed back a couple of weeks to September 4th, 'Be An Astronaut' is out now - quite blown away by this on first listen!

 

Another more experimental one I see - I think this will grow on me more than Daniel did but not sure if I'll like it as much as the first two.

 

Also an EP called 'Be An Astronaut' has popped up on Spotify with these 4 songs on it now...

That's quite common for a lot of new releases to have the previous singles attached to it.

Shows how much attention I pay to non-singles on Spotify!

 

(that is also shown by the fact I'm relying on this album being good as I have no other contenders for my Album of the Year :P)

Pretty annoyed myself it's been pushed back, was getting quite excited for its release!
'Be An Astronaut' sounds very Bowie-esque - definitely a better first impression than I had for the last two singles and can see this one being a grower as well, possibly the best of the four singles so far. British Bombs still > all of them tho

I'm really getting into Be An Astronaut right now :wub: Perhaps on track to be my second favourite of the singles, behind The Key to Life on Earth!

 

The album is good, I'm liking it a lot though not as much as the debut. Twice Your Size and Rapture both commit the annoying sin of getting borderline unlistenable to the end of the songs after being very good throughout :tearsmile: but that's my only real criticism. Sagittarius A* and Eventually, Darling are my favourites of the new songs.

I loved this also! Though I think it's leagues above his debut which I've never been *massively* into.

 

My favourites are The Key to Life on Earth, Rapture (sorry Joseph, the ending is banging :lol:), Twice Your Size and Be An Astronaut. Very impressed overall!
