Just want to say... THIS RECORD IS REALLY REALLY GREAT! :)

There's just no bad song on the album, but 11 great ones... The best record I've listened to this year ... :)

I have it aswell and i really like it :P

Wahey! More people who like athlete, methinks they will be very big this year

i think so too

 

and they deserve it

 

they are aceroonie :cool:

HEY....last night, someone i barely know, sent me and my friend a text, saying she couldn't go to see Athlete in Newcastle at the Baltic. So me and My friend, Luke, got to see Athlete. It was Excellent. It was really hard to get the tickets apparently, you had to search around, or be 'in the know'.

they're playing another small gig tomorrow, Feb 6th: Liverpool, Bar & Grill.

you can get tickets from these places if you know where they are, and IF [that's an Insanely BIG IF] the tickets are not sold out.: Quirks Records, Crosby, Formby, Ormskirk, Quantum Records.

The Sound was one of the best live sounds i've heard, it was in quite an exclusive place, and there was only around 150 people allowed to be in the gig.

I think i liked the gig even more because i wasn't expecting to go, the adrenalin that went around my body was insane, i felt like i was going to pop...especially when they played things from the first album, because i've not really heard the new album yet.

:D

YOU LUCKY GIT! Im trying to get hold of some tickets for their gig in leeds but i spent all my cash on tickets for embrace in leeds :angry:

i really am a Lucky Git. I hate it being in your situation, and hearing about things like this, but i had to share it! my ticket was free :/ i'm sorry. :bucktooth:

This is modern mafia their scared of us their scared of us :P

 

I remember them playing that at V and everyone thinking what the hell is this lol :smug:

the new album is stunning

 

modern mafia is great, esp the "they're scared of us, they're scared of us" bit

wires and trading air are current faves...

 

although...

 

"I love everybody here

I love everybody here

I love everybody here

And life is beautiful

cos I love everybody here"

indeedy :cool:

Look at my thread go :D woooohooooooo...

 

:lol:

indeedy :cool:

whooooooooaaaaaaa...Im starting the athlete mania!... :smug:

'Wires'' is really really good indeed

 

 

nah i think Tourist is a MUCH better song, especially the bit at the end where he keeps singing 'just wanna be with you my baaaby' :P

hmm...afer owning the album for a few weeks now...i've made my mind up, and i don't really like it :/ I listened to it quite a few times...and I don't really like it at all compared to the first album! Does anyone else think the same...or am i just a loner.. :bucktooth:

When i saw them live, the songs i really liked were the earlier ones, but i thought i would just need time for the album to grow on me..but it's not that :sad2:

:( I still haven't had a chance to listen to the new album, but i have to say... i think it would be quite hard to beat the genius that was the first album.

well, there is 1 really lovely song that i Do like quite a bit quite early into the album...the Wires single, was fairly average i thought..i like the last song on the album too...with the electronic sounds [i think it's the last one]

i am going to love wires forever....

it's GORGEOUS :D
