I'm knicking that 'Well, Mick Jagger does it and he's older than me'
Second to last one, Sleeper.
Is this about Louise Wener?

Also, is this a concept album?
With a narrative and all that malarky?

It's usually more depressing.
Sometimes they go full on guitar noise, occasionally full on

It is over.
It was basically just the same song, over and over again, for 48 minutes.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

Well, I'm a bit baffled now.
God's honest truth I've never heard anything by this band before now (I know the band's name well though, obviously).
There was a lot musically to like.
It plateaued strongly on that front during the middle third of the album and during that time the ham-fistedly pretentious vocal stylings began to work.
But...

All things considered, it does make me curious about their back catalogue.
I think that the last year-or-so has made some bands and artists go a bit odd/daring.

Sorry, where was I, it was alright. Not their best. Could have been a lot worse mind you.

Possibly a bit too long and too wordy.
There's two of them, one does everything musical and the other one does the the other stuff.
The singer has made some wonderful experimental instrumental stuff,
The other guy's made some really boring self obsessed singer songwriter stuff, go figure eh?
