I don't hate it, just feel like I got a different set of songs than everybody else. Also, we've heard like every song one at a time goddam Tom. Tom made a Jan version a few months back, we were all in on it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a pretty wide spectrum too, as medicine advances so does our understanding. Most of us are at least a little on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 I’m on vacation and can’t be bothered to hunt down the leak so I’ll just listen tomorrow. I’m not even that excited despite loving a few of the released songs, idk why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People would have been amped if it was just radio silence until a month or so ago and then released Kiss and Tell and announce a new album. It's been years of releasing songs and talking about it though, so the excitement is dead. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah I don’t prefer love era, in fact that was my least favorite Tom era at the time. I think wdntw is the best ava album, it was the only album he did the grandiose music really well without being cringy. Best Tom is untitled and neighborhoods blink. Going past original blink, neighborhoods and dogs eating dogs is best Tom. And kiss and tell, automatic, losing my mind (at least parts of this song), and overload shows he can still do it; he just chooses not to. Just really want him to make another album entirely like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kay Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 Dream Walker is easily the best AVA record for me. I've only heard 6 from Lifeforms and I adore 3 of them, meh on one and think the other two are shite. Makes me think it's doubtful I'll like all of other 4 but the 3 Songs I like so far are better than WDNTW and other old AVA for me by a country mile. Not better than blink by any standard that's typical tombot bullshit but by AVA standards, pretty fucking good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are the og fans of the band that don’t make sense to me. I think they’re going to find it doesn’t age well to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russel Coight Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 Listened to the new songs again this morning and didn’t really rate. Average album for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisa Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 I don't even have time to breathe lately because I'm working at all hours, but I'm listening to the album now and I started from the 3 songs I hadn't heard before (it's midnight here). Timebomb was supposed to be the best song on the album according to a lot of people online, but it's a let down. No More Guns is definitely a song you wouldn't expect to hear from AVA, it sounds like modern Green Day. Fire In A Nameless Town: the chorus is cool but the rest is very meh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisa Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 Automatic is really great and it could have been an even better blink song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knapppers Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 I love "OG" AVA and i also love the Dream Walker. I would say the Love albums are defineitly the worst albums hes done. This album isnt that great though. Its like the Dream Walker was a certain percentage Tom, a certain percentage Ilan/Aaron and it worked and I really enjoyed it. This album seems like it turned into more of an Ilan and Aaron show and its not great. Kiss and Tell and Losing my Mind are the only two songs I love on this album. Time Bomb is good but not quite there, the rest I can take it or leave it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 Rather disappointing album so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 Even Spotify is confused by Tom, it has Timebomb as latest album, with 7 songs on it. Unless that is what they are just doing with his single single single situation. But they are calling that an album? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radioactive tomdog Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 kinda wish they put all that's left is love on the album instead of no more guns. i don't even like the song but at least it fits the sound of the rest of the album. but yeah. i like the rest of the album a lot and appreciate the new masters of rebel girls and kiss & tell as well. i don't have any issues with the mixing either. maybe i got ahead of myself saying it like it more than wdntw but i definitely prefer the vibe more than the floating over the trees nonsense.

Rebel Girl and Kiss & Tell feel like such bonus tracks at this point to be added to a new album. I'm not that picky but it totally has been the longest release for an average album ever. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
