No idea what that means but I read it in a famous five book so it can’t be a bad thing.

Got high hopes for this.Wasn’t that impressed with the ‘comeback’ album, found it too lightweight and fluffy compared to the other stuff.Hoping Gingers regained his arse kicking songwriting ability.
And yeah, Earth VS and Fishing For Luckies are me faves.Big riffs and big tunes fitting together perfectly :cool:

just bought ‘the best of’ just now so i cn get into them a bit more, which will make it easier for me to decide whether or not i shud get the remaining albums i havent ordered, yet.
ive ordered earth vs. and the new one should arrive tomorrow, im going to look for ‘must be destroyed soon if i have time, but i wanna bone up on my devin townsend album first tho ;)
i already have ‘coupled with’ because ‘stormy in the north ’ is on there and i love that song, the rest of the albums not too bad, some killer some filler, then again they are all b-sides after all, lol.

Despite the release date supposedly being 23rd, I just found the new album in Fopp in Bristol, and apparently they’ve had it on sale since last week!
Just listening now, the first track is huge! Could’ve been lifted off Fishing For Luckies.
It really is like old Wildhearts. So many bands say their new album is gonna be a return to past glories but that never works out, but appears to be here.
Can’t wait til Tuesday for the gig!

Postman came through for me, halfway through Rooting For The Bad Guy, and yes, it’s Fishing For Luckies-esque.

Just bought the album!!
What a stormer! After disappointments from Muse, RHCP, Silverchair and too many others too depressing to list at least the Wildhearts have made a good one!!
Stylistically, its definately Fishing For Luckies but the riffs kick your face in, the arrangements are bigger and better and the tunes fantastic! The musicianship is astounding too - and there was only once when got fed up with the technical stuff and had to skip but i’m sure i’ll go back to it!
Thank fuck SOMEONE can still make a good album - even the Sun gave it a deserved 5/5 so lets hope they sell loadsa records this time! :)

Listened to it about 10 times now and it’s clearly album of the year so far.
Possibly the best Wildhearts album ever???
Seeing them live tonight, bring it on!!!

Fucking love this album - it’s brilliant.
I liked …Must Be Destroyed, but I struggle to go back to it now. I liked Valor Del Corazon too, but I thought Yoni was bollocks. This is a stomping melodic riff monster - awesome.
If only they had released this on the back of …Must Be Destroyed, when the public were vaguely interested, then they would be huuuuge now. I think this will be one of those great albums that doesn’t sell anywhere near enough copies, even though it’s great.

Obviously no one in the band is sporting a side parting / floppy fringe combo style

After careful thought here’s my verdict - it’s a lot like a cross between Fishing For Luckies, Endless Nameless without the noise and distortion and a couple of the B-Sides from Coupled With.
All in all very good, with lots of great pop hooks, Shredding bursts of heaviness and the overall flavour is like a Riff feast pizza with an extra topping of Riffs.
5 stars - go buy it now.

They threw a telegraph pole at me! They could have used an iron or some other household item but no, they have to show off!
