The Last Shadow Puppets are back

[trojanchick99]

With Arctic Monkeys on hiatus, Alex Turner reunited with Miles Kane for another TLSP album due this Spring. I'm very excited for this. James Ford produced.

And we have a new single! Bad Habit. Love, love the bass line.

"Bad Habits" is a cool song but it definitely won't be my favorite on the album because it's Miles on lead vocal and not Alex. Still a good song (love Miles' yelps) and still very excited for a full album.

Here's the second single from the album, the title track. It's got a great '60s in Southern California vibe. Like it would have been perfect in one of the LA scenes in Mad Men. I can definitely hear a Beach Boys influence.

You couldn't say that the direction they are going isn't challenging/interesting. Bad Habits grew on me, hoping this will too

Ok, Aviation is fucking wonderful. And the film clip as a pre-curser to the clip for ETYCTE was tops.

Very excited for the album.

The videos are really cool, yeah. Not totally thrilled with the songs themselves yet, though.

So this has now leaked.

Haven't made it all the way through, but it is a really interesting sounding record. Miracle Aligner and the Element of Surprise are both really good new songs from the first half.

No-one can accuse these boys of being safe or boring.

 

[trojanchick99]

I love it. It's a clear progression from the first album. It's got dark elements, glam and even some 50s.

The Alex tracks here are the standouts. Not surprisingly. Miracle Aligner, Sweet Dreams, She Does The Woods, and The Dream Synopsis are all fantastic. Dream Synopsis is such a tasty album closer and Miracle Aligner should've been the lead single. My favorite Miles track so far is Aviation.

Fun album when Alex shows up. Looking forward to more spins.

A tree dude, or a dude tree?

 

[iron yuppie]

Miracle Aligner really gets stuck in my head. That is all.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

My AOTY so far.

 

[dan_smee]

Fantastic album. Dream Synopsis, Pattern, Sweet Dreams are the big 3 for me ATM

 

[trojanchick99]

It's my favorite album so far this year. Saw them perform at Coachella on Friday. Fantastic show. They really have fun and the songs from both albums really blend well. Aviation, and Used To Be My Girl were highlights.
