Please use the spoiler thingy or DM's. There's so many of us here who don't want to see a discussion about the album until it's officially out. Thank you
Whooopsie sorry, did not realize it’s such a sensitive subject.
There’s been official magazine reviews quoted and the review ratings posted over here, did not think the answer to such a simple question from a forum member would be much different.
If I were ranking the songs 1-9 on the best, I'm not sure any of the 3 they've released necessarily would be in the top 3 tracks on the album for most people.
Still, does not have to be this sensitive a subject IMO.
If we would have a detailed description of every song on the album before its release, from the band, like we’ve had many times in the past, in my postboard nerd experience it’s never taken away from the anticipation but the contrary.
That’s interesting....I’m loving the 3 new ones so looks like I’ll love the rest of it! I’ve heard the snippets and I was offered the whole album but I’m waiting, after this last week I need something to look forward to and have a build up to it!
2 reviews now have likened Chasing Birds to John Lennon’s ‘ Woman’ ... I suppose I get it now it’s pointed out. I got definite shades of Rocket From The Crypt’s ‘On A Rope’ in Holding Poison though.
Sticking vehemently to my unbroken ritual - listen to the singles (even at the beginning you could never help that with them all over the radio) - then the rest only when stylus drops on vinyl.

It was more as a precaution since i obviously wouldn't know how much into detail he would have gone in his answer, that's all
Here's a spoiler-free spoiler

I like this.

But yeah.. moving along..

I like it better than the last few albums. That's all I'll say to save spoilers, I guess.
eta: Following Dave's kid V on instra suggests their taste (which I'm sure was heavily Dave influenced to begin with) has had an impact here.
Well, I think its pretty damn good!
No spoilers here ...
I don't know if I should look it up. I fucking hate streamings, they take even more off the excitement of waiting to get the album. Hmmm...
Nah don't do it.
Ok, inspired by the preview for one by one that I had to post for Dave 18+ years ago
Making a Fire. KILLER
Shame Shame KILLER
Cloudspotter KILLER
Waiting on a War KILLER
Medicine at Midnight KILLER
No Son of Mine KILLER
Holding Poison KILLER
Chasing Birds
Love Dies Young KILLER
Ah, memories! 8 out of 9 ain't bad either.
I'm holding off on the final 6, as well. Might as well at this point.
You just spoiled it for all of us.
Dave’s said since that the album sucks.
I tried 😓 . I broke 😪. I'm listening 😶.
I’ve only heard the singles so far. Think I’ll wait til next week...
Stay strong and just ignore all the chatter about it being out there already.
Shame Shame had to grow on me, but this is pretty much bang on.
I think Cloudspotter is my early favourite.
2 reviews now have likened Chasing Birds to John Lennon’s ‘ Woman’ ... I suppose I get it now it’s pointed out. I got definite shades of Rocket From The Crypt’s ‘On A Rope’ in Holding Poison though.
Haha! Will do! ✊🏻
No leaks here, I'm happy to wait, I can still get excited about an album release date. I think the last one I spoiled was OBO.
Agree about Cloudspotter!
me too!! Medicine at Midnight is pretty great too
I would hope so!
That Rocket from the Crypt one has been driving me nuts. The vibe was something I just couldn't place it.

What's your business out of Lockdown sir... work, family care, shopping, medical issue?
Urgent Foo Fighters postage officer.
On your way then son... 🤣🤣
as it stands.. probably 😂
although saying that, if I wanted could probably travel anywhere in the country and not get challenged... stupidity at its finest.
I’m really excited for this record
