I still can't get over how similar some of the songs are to some previous work of his so I haven't been playing it much. I was hoping hearing them live would change my mind but it didn't. :\

yeah... i'm a HUGE fan of the group but this album underwhelms me. first song is a corker, drunk girls is terrible, rest of the album is fine. only fine. i doubt i'll get a phsical copy (unless vinyl cost comes down qute a bit from £19...)

I honestly don't get the Drunk Girls hate. I think it's a good song, the ending/climax part is actually great.

it's just to...straight forward... no intelligence or anything at ALL new or interesting. 4 major chords and bland lyrics... need i go on???

It's not the best album of the year but it's still pretty good. 'Drunk Girls' is definitely the weakest track on the album, there's nothing really interesting about it at all. It seems like one of those no brainer songs that only sounds good when drunk with your friends. Other than that the rest of the album is great, 'Dance Yrself Clean' and 'I Can Change' being the album highlights. Not as good as Sound Of Silver but a welcome addition none the less.

Sound of Silver < This Is Happening
All My Friends > This Is Happening

I'd say Somebodys Calling Me is a weaker song then Drunk Girls. And no intelligence? Sure people in the background are constantly chanting DRUNK GIRLS or DRUNK BOYS, but lots of Murphys lyrics in that song are rather witty.

Saw them live at Roskilde music festival in Denmark the other day. Don't know their music, didn't see their whole performance. But they sounded like a good band. Should I pick up an album?

debaserr · 07-10-2010, 12:13 AM
