Let's hear it for the first contribution from Rubber Soul! Comment, debate, rate, vote and review here.

I pretty much know this as "That Album That Polly Really Likes". Listened to it before, and thought it was pretty good.

Prediction: (No offence to RS but) Neapolitan and Ori are the only two likely (hah) to really dig this album. We now return to your original programme, already in progress.

Get ready to be wrong

Btw, I'm not actually part of the album club, I'm just here for the chips

Yeah, Troll, go listen to your Iron Maiden or something

And I see three loves already. That's already more than a couple albums I've seen.

Never said it would be a correct prediction. I may love it myself. Gotta have some fun.

I like their melodic sensibilities. The songs have a Stephin Merritt kind of intelligence. On the other hand, I’m not buying into the retro Shangri-Las thing.

Fuck you, the Shangs went harder than Slayer

It shouldn't be a matter of whether you'll buy into it or not, it should be a matter of how fast you can stuff your money in their hands

OccultHawk · 01-09-2018, 08:56 AM

I didn’t dis the shangrilas.

And what money?

Oriphiel · 01-09-2018, 09:00 AM

So embrace the Shangitude. Strap yourself into the Shang machine, rev it up, and break some dimensional walls.

Buy into it. It's your destiny. Who are you to challenge destiny?
