I really like this album. Just 40 minutes pure fun.

 

[LemonMelon]

I'm saying.

 

[the tourist]

I hope I like this album as much as I liked Attack and Release and Brothers.

You stole it back.

Missed the Hive Live in NYC release party on MTC webcast otnight. Oh well...

They will be on Letterman on Wednesday, 12/7/11. Set your DVR boys and girls!

 

[martha]

I cannot wait to go to Target to pick up the album tomorrow afternoon! If only they opened at 7 instead of 8!

 

[Lila64]

What to do after work And Maddy won't see this post, LOL!

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

This isn't on spotify yet. I could easily just google, but does anybody know of a quality stream for this album? Thanks.

 

[LemonMelon]

I would tell you to just queue it up on Grooveshark, but somebody did it for you:

[GirlsAloudFan]

Muchas gracias, amigo.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Holy shit, "Little Black Submarines" is DOPE.

 

[BoMac]

Yup.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Solid album. Short and tight, none of the songs stood out as being bad, but also none of the songs stood out in a positive way as much as "Little Black Submarines." At least on this first listen.

Colbert. Tonight for those of you on the west coast!

This is a little more positive than the Pitchfork review:

The Black Keys: El Camino < PopMatters

 

[martha]

I had to go to two Targets last night for this bitch!

 

[martha]

Dammit! Apparently Comedy Central doesn't show Colbert on reruns that day after anymore. Crap.

 

[u2popmofo]

They're on Letterman tonight if you'd rather watch that.

 

[martha]

If only I could stay up that late at anytime. But thank you.

 

[BoMac]

Martha, I think it's time you invest in a DVR.

 

[corianderstem]

I liked the album on first listen, although I think I like Brothers more.

 

[martha]

Martha, I think it's time you invest in a DVR.

The few times I want to watch TV, it's all on too late. At least I got to watch the Charlie Brown Christmas special.

 

[u2popmofo]

I liked the album on first listen, although I think I like Brothers more.

Yeah, I definitely like Brothers more. Considerably more, even. This is fun, just not enjoying it as much as I'd hoped yet. Hopefully it grows on me.

 

[Lila64]

Martha - you can watch Colbert online on the Comedy Central website the day after it airs on TV.

 

[LemonMelon]

I think Brothers is a better album than El Camino, but it's a fucking hour long. I never feel like listening to it. El Camino is a quick shot of adrenaline whenever I need it.

 

[the tourist]

Finally listened to this album. Much better than I was expecting!

My first time hearing it was at the gym, which can often result in either an over the top positive or negative result for me depending on the gym experience itself. It's very possible I'll hear it later and have a complete different opinion, so I'm looking forward to hearing it again.
