New Spiritualized album

[kowalski__]

i'm listening jason pierce since spacemen 3. his voice is just changing like neil young. :-)

i love the new album: its full of mantras, dark gospel, hymns.. for me its an album about healing yourself. its different album, written way before near death experience. i think most people were expecting the next "ladies and gentleman" but i'm happy that he is not repeating himself.

as a big spiritualized fan for years, i love him more now.

A co-worker echoed similar sentiments in regards to people wanting another 'ladies and gentlemen...' and have been wanting another one since then. I like that he's not repeating himself and constantly changing and adapting. I just found myself more drawn to Let it come down more than Amazing Grace and Songs in A & E. However, seeing, and hearing some of the songs off Amazing Grace performed live changed my opinion quite a bit. I found them much better live.

I'm actually really enjoying this album now and think it's a worthy addition to the Spiritualized catalogue

I've had the album in a random downtempo playlist that I've been listening to in work for the last few weeks and the songs have wormed their way into my heart. I think that once you get past the change to Jason's voice there's a lot of good stuff to be found within.

Definitely worth revisiting if you haven't listened to it since it leaked...

Liking it a lot, always good stuff from the Spritualized camp. I lost out on getting a promo for a magazine I write for to. D'oh!
