Jiggy 1,024 Posted June 6, 2015 I've just got tickets to seem them in October. They've got a lot of potential, every single so far is perfect, can't wait for 'Communion' 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drewby 9,249 Posted June 13, 2015 Finally listened to Shine with good headphones. It sucks. It's the worst track from the album by a mile, it doesn't have the same sense of urgency and emotional power of the other songs Worship is like a bargain version of Desire's instrumental and King's lyrics Each song is making me look forward to the album less 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the remainder of the songs will probably have just as much as emotion as their other songs. Remember that the singles are generally the most generic material. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I certainly do like generic pop music, although it's just blah. I like songs that build and go somewhere and Shine just sods off. I'd be perfectly okay with an album of Desire/King/Worship/Memos but I do believe the record will show their versatility...I mean really don't care for their early singles from before the EP was released. It doesn't even sound like them 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

delreyfreak 5,342 Posted June 23, 2015 I just made a lyric video for their new song, "Foundation", if anyone is interested! If not, then just ignore! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drewby 9,249 Posted June 29, 2015 The album version of Eyes Shut is a different arrangement from the previous release. Instrumentation is different and lyrics have been tweaked https://soundcloud.com/jewels-hugs-i-i/es-1 also, Emergency is another old song by them 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amadeus 11,334 Posted June 29, 2015 meh, the new version sounds so weird and overproduced (but in a bad way). the "now-demo" is good because the instrumental itself is very minimalistic and "calm" the album version sounds like they tried to make some sam smith power ballad with a piano verse at the beginning. they're having a concert in my area but the tickets aren't on sale (u can only win them bye) i just hope i'm lucky enough to win tickets (or at least see or meet them, it's the same event where i was lucky enough to meet lana in 2012 (she also put us on the guest list for front row seats she's an angel) 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

National Anthem 9,906 Posted August 6, 2015 Honestly the only reason there's even a following for them is because one of the band members is [openly] gay. mmmm but the music is really good so I don't think that's all of it 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drewby 9,249 Posted August 6, 2015 Honestly the only reason there's even a following for them is because one of the band members is [openly] gay. King was #1 before he became openly gay and they won BBC Sound of 2015 at the top of the year Songs like Desire, Gold, King and Border are good. Ballads aren't because his vocal is so weak when it's given room to breathe 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
