Also i think the full statement is a bit overly critical of the album. It doesnt seem like Travis likes it one bit.

i seems like he was frustrated by the way they recorded it. i wonder if that's the reason they never play anything other than the singles + Ghost On The Dancefloor...

Quite possibly. I think they did nail the single choices though.

One thing about the record is that it is quite clear which songs are Tom's and which are Mark's.

Mark's are always streamline but they lack a bit of power to them.
Tom's could do with a little more of Mark's conciseness

Really hope they can meld the two styles into something ore cohesive next time

Not too hard to go up from Neighborhoods (it was good, but definitely not great), but I'm still excited for whatever their next album sounds like and whatever their big announcement is gonna be.

I'm still waiting for Use Your Erection I & II

Haha, so basically you're just in here to troll.

And lol @ putting One Direction in the same category as The Beatles and Beach Boys.

And lol @ calling them a "boy band" after the self-titled.

What an embarrassing post.

Er, what? Your reply doesn't make sense in relation to what you quoted.

So you admit to them being a boy band, at least in one point in time? Okay that's fine by me.

I was also being facetious when I added One Direction, no one seemed to catch that. Well, almost, One Direction have almost lyrics as blink ever does, and is much catchier so...

How sad.

I hope one day they'll be able to do that one more time and maybe go their separate ways



And then you'll learn the difference between "right" and "write."

Ahhh crap. You got me. I had a good 9 years without a typo.

But seriously, my statement stands.
