i put “inbetweener” by sleeper on a recent playlist and always mistake it for wet leg until the chorus hits

This album is good, “Angelica” is a candidate for song of the year

On the flip side “Oh No” is a candidate for worst song of the year but it doesn’t ruin the album somehow

^^ Agree with both posts. I think 'Oh No' works within the context of the album but I'd never want to hear it on its own. I'd probably skip it if I had the CD but it's too much hassle on vinyl.

Yeah, I still think the pre-release singles (including “Chaise Lounge”) are the weakest tracks, but I’ve grown to like them well enough in the context on the album. Even “Oh No!”

I can’t think of another situation where I disliked all the singles, heard the album, and was like — “Wait a minute…”

(Although apparently “Too Late Now” was the 3rd single? I must have overlooked it, that one’s great)

Have you heard the Soulwax remix of Too Late Now?

Really doesn't work without the bratty way the Chats dude says "smoko"

This is exactly what happened to me with Nine Inch Nails' Hesitation Marks. Hated every advance track, but loved them in the context of the album.
(Wet Leg sucks. I'm glad that Bandcamp Daily writer pasted them one.)

For a set?
They sold out their upcoming Atlanta show in a matter of minutes.

“Angelica” sounds great on Radio 1 at 8:22 in the morningThere’s something of the Stereolab in them imo

My wife has the CD in her car and it's certainly grown on me. I've been racking my branes and it dawned on me the other day: the band they remind me of more than anything is the Young Knives.
