The Wildhearts

hope this cool to post as it is on amazon

http://www.amazon.de/Chutzpah/dp/B002K2 ... m_ap_alb15

this sounds foooooking incredible

Im in love.

I think it'll take a few spins before I recognise it as a Wildhearts album, which isn't to say it doesn't sound good but I can definately hear already how it might have some wider appeal!

Then again I've NEVER pre-judged an album based on 30-second soundclips, even when I have an album I really like if I was to go back to the clips that just pick out a chorus line I'd probably think it sounded average at best.

Thanks for the link

Might make some notes and edit them into this post. Might not.

Interesting!

It's got a very slick, modern production sound reminiscent of some of the emo-ish bands around. The last track even has a bit of vocoder/autotune going on! The songs sound great though; melodic and anthemic with some beefy riffage. Based on an incomplete listen I'd say this album is going to be a divisive one. It'll definitely bring in some new younger fans but some of the Wildhearts die-hards might struggle to get on board with the modern-ness of it all. We shall see... I'm very excited to hear this properly - roll on 31st!

HOLY SHITTING CHRIST!!!!!!!! I'm sweating like Josef Fritzel on MTV Cribs in antisipation for this now!!! Sounds absolutely awesome!!!

Most of it sounded generally good to me, with a couple of especially high points and a couple of especially low points. Naturally I'll reserve judgment until I hear it whole, though.

This has to be the best statement I have ever heard

Yeah that pretty much sums up my opinion of it based on the clips we can hear.
A couple of the songs sound like they wouldn't be out of place in an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Really liked some of them but..not to sure about a few of them.

Roll on the end of August so i can hear them properly.

Had to check them out again

The Only One and You are Proof...

The Only One has a very American sounding chorus from what i can hear and You are proof.. reminds me of bands like Lit

Indeed and i can see why some of the reviews mention some of the songs possibly getting lots of Radio play.

I'm really liking You took the Sunshine from New York,Jackson Whites and Mazel Tov Cocktail so far

I have a feeling this may become my favourite album

I LOVE the sound of every track
