Ive been a massive Idlewild fan going back to their first EP. Always looked forward to the their new albums.
However, I wasnt too impressed with their last album and im even less impressed with their latest attempt. They have lost their edge. Too much blandness has crept in. Gone are the tunes which made you want to jump into the mosh crowd for, and in replace we have these melodic REM style tunes... which just arent up to scratch.

I haven't heard the new one yet but 'Warnings/Promises' was rubbish. It's a shame like but s**t happens y'know. I'm just glad I got to see them play some fun shows in support of 2 of my favourite indie rock albums (100 Broken Windows + The Remote Part).

Oh yeah, quality albums. Do you have the Captain EP. Pure genius. So Raw.
I presume you caught them around the time of the Turn/Wilt gigs and all that lark.

Didnt actually know there was another album after 'Warnings/Promises'.... I thought the band had improved each time and when The Remote Part came along I thought it was so superb and said 'Oh yeah, here comes a big one'... However.


FLOP.....

Wont bother with the new one if you guys say its worse the 'W/P'.
