find it impossible to think of the lyrics as a "bonus" in an album like this but the world is full of different kinds of people and that's great

at first i was indifferent, but this is a grower it seems

Saw 'em in Sydney a couple of weeks back, and they were great. Feel like the newer songs have more of a kick live with a higher tempo and less emphasis on the synths. They really just sounded more like Guppy songs, and for the better. Anyway, they had great energy and seemed like they were having lots of fun.
Mr. Brightside cover was cool.

I have to admit that I've warmed up to it (some more) in the last months. Now it's... fine.But yes, as Johnny Fever said, they don't owe me a Guppy 2 and that's perfectly okay.By now I'm just glad that this seems to be enjoyed by a lot of people.

Holy shit @ "Threat." I'm constantly wrestling with whether or not I was that guy in my youth, and I don't think I was to that degree, but I feel this in my bones.

This new E.P sounds somewhat like a bunch of Demos. Everything is quite basic, thin and...boring :(

"heaven" giving me breeders vibes.

these songs are all pretty good except for "supermoon"

Young Enough is such a great album.

new music tomorrow, yippee skippee!

Great news. I saw them in April and they said the album was finished. The new material sounded really good.

it's quite a pop move, not bad but doesn't really play to their strengths either

feel like i've heard this song 50 times before, and that's just in ILX EOY singles polls
― imago, Wednesday, 21 June 2023 11:59 (eleven months ago) link
don't think it's good enough to make the eoy poll really

you just wait lol

― imago, Wednesday, 21 June 2023 12:33 (eleven months ago) link
Hmm yeah, I don't think they played this one when I saw them. It's not great. The other songs sounded so much better, especially the emo ballad.
― kitchen person, Wednesday, 21 June 2023 14:12 (eleven months ago) link
jfc why are they so terrible now

Yeah I don't like the way they've gone with these post- Young Enough tracks. To me that one was the perfect middle ground between a glossy slick sound and 4 people just playing in a room. The sonic whiz-bang cluttered production style is not doing them any favors.

bliss is back, album in august. single is not doing much for me...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o01RqjMBS7I

The relief I felt when I saw those two singles from last year didn't make the album!
― kitchen person, Wednesday, 1 May 2024 14:15 (one month ago) link
would say this is better... it ain't percolator though
― devvvine, Wednesday, 1 May 2024 14:19 (one month ago) link
Song doesn't really go anywhere, but yeah at least it's not that quasi-hyper-pop vibe (although the production suggests that could still be in the mix). Oh well. I really like the second album, maybe that's all the Charly Bliss I need.

it's been so long that it kinda felt like they'd already released a disappointing third album i'd forgotten about

The worst creative crash and burn I've seen a band willingly engage in since Bloc Party.

can't blame a band for trying new things, pushing themselves, expanding their sound, evolving, etc. — it's their band to run, after all, not mine — but sometimes the best move would be to just make the first album over and over again.

I really like that. Maybe there's hope for the album after all.

it's the first track to really make the case for them as as Pop band

Nope

Would be a great song at maybe 20% faster tempo.

these both had to grow on me but it was very nice to even belatedly realize that “nineteen” is a fucking amazing song
