I'm holding out hope that the new record is upbeat and maybe a bit aggressive... Track 2 of the Shining Future preview seems like it could really move and groove, similar to Momove. As I said in the BBWFASF thread, track 1 sounds like a lead single to me, an uplifting club hit in the spirit of Two Month Off, maybe...
Beaucoup Fish will always be the pinnacle of banging for me, since there are several loud, drum heavy singles. But each album has had its highs, lows, dance cuts and reflective ambience. UW...definitely an albums band, and I like the variety. Kudos to them that each LP has a unique identity, or " Feel", to be subjective!

Right, that's precisely what I meant. Rez/Cowgirl, Tin There, Kittens, Pearls Girl.. tracks with a hard edge while tracks like TMO, Crocodile & ALAF were more..."nice". AHDO, OWB & Barking are excellent in their own right but I wouldn't mind some new stuff with a little attitude if that makes sense. It could be they're in a "happier" place now and that's where the music is evolving. Regardless can't wait for the new album, I love everything they put out.
