Science/visions is incredibly awesome.
Really loving this album. Gotta see when they come to NYC and see them live.

blue hawaii are fucking awesome, and even more awesome in live performance. Their shows are pretty different from their album. Much more dancey and energetic.

A bit more moody, but if you dig chvrches, you will dig this.
I just wanted an excuse to post this fuckawesome song
kitchenmotors and I saw them a couple months ago and they had a neat t-shirt or two.

They had two different black tshirts (arrows and uh...fingerprint?) and a white tshirt (fingerprint). I didnt see any posters.
They only had womens in the black shirt with the arrows, but i went after the show ended so maybe they sold out...?

Dude this is awesome :O
Yes. Yes it is. From the first seconds of Wings I was in love with them. Here's another song. First ep coming the 17th.

Good stuff, thanks!
I'm also thinking about this other group. I forgot their name but on one of their singles, music video had the girl walking around New York in an astronaut suit. Like shes going around jumping in parks and then sitting in her room and then walking around and whatever. I can't remember anything...anyone have any ideas?

No problem Jon! Glad you got tickets to their show. When I saw them in May they played Lincoln Hall. Don't know if that venue was around before you left Chicago, but it's got amazing acoustics. Their show sounded amazing. Going to see them at the Metro on the 11th. Not a huge fan of the Metro as it can sound muddy, but I'm excited to see them again!

Yeah, I heard Blue Hawaii for the first time live, when they opened for Purity Ring. Was completely blown away.
Yep, it had been open for about 6-8 months (I think?) or so when we moved away. Fantastic place! Loved their Mac & Cheese.

Saw them first at SXSW, then at Granada this summer. Love them. Adore them.
Damn son, that's quite the OP for a small band like CHVRCHES. Awesome works!
Need to listen to the full album still but love the songs I already know. Saw them a few weeks back at Rock en Seine and Lauren spoke a bit French too. If you didn't love her already you'd certainly do after you heard that

Saw Blue Hawaii at GVB, they played like a boring DJ set which was sort of disappointing. Empress of was great though.

The weirdest thing, when I went to see Jessie Ware there for a Lolla aftershow... some lady was going around handing out little cups of their Mac and Cheese. She gave us some and it was good, but really odd.
same here dude! they were just going totally nuts and their energy was just off the charts.

haha their mac was soooo delicious.
Now I'm listening to the album I realise how good their show was. I recognize a lot of the songs they did that time and I've only heard these songs that one time at the gig. Especially We Sink, Lies and Under The Tide stood out to me. Need to get me tickets to the Amsterdam show
EDIT
Crap, then I find out Deerhunter is on the same day :/

Same. Saw them in Pontiac, MI. Easily one of the best shows I've been to this year. Both Blue Hawaii and Purity Ring killed it.
Is there anywhere I can purchase their music as lossless audio? Ugh, the fact that it's 2013 and this isn't easily available is so frustrating. Bandcamp is one of the few places that allows you to do this, but their music isn't on there.
Amazon it is then...
At least Amazon gave me $3 pity dollars for buying a bunch of textbooks that I can use to buy music.

I agree. I don't mind Iain in the song but I do prefer the studio version with Lauren singing.
I first heard about the band a couple months ago in the electronic music thread, and became a fan immediately after hearing some of their singles and the Recover EP.
The album is great, 'We sink', 'By the throat' and 'Night sky' are my favorites. The only song that I find a bit meh is the last one (not because it has the dude singing, I liked ZVVL, but this one is a bit boring)
Yeah I noticed that as well, the album version sounds better. Has Lies been remastered as well? I think it sounds a bit different too, though maybe that's just me.

Never knew about this group. Thanks GAF!
Cry for attention?
what annoys you
also my immediate instinct is to consider anyone who uses "hipsterish" as a pejorative a semi-dummy who isn't articulate enough to actually have opinions on content/form of music and thus runs with the buzzword they heard a kid at a party say once but if you can back it up to make it actually mean something I'd love to read it
You describe my feelings about his posts very well. An empty post would have told me more than the words he used.

Been listening to the Miaoux Miaoux remix of The Mother We Share pretty religiously. I'm almost sorta sickened by how catchy it is.
Have to go deeper.

If you find it that annoying, why even post with nothing constructive to say? I have no problem with someone not enjoying the same music, as music taste is subjective, but don't be one of those guys. Well, unless you just happen to be one of those guys.
I hate it when the word hipster is thrown around as an insult. It happens a lot here on GAF and really shows that you have no idea what you're talking about. Bye.
Also, big ander. <3

Love them. Very excited for album, gutted I couldn't make the album launch as they were great when I saw them earlier this year.
Never knew one of the guys is from Aerogramme - love that band.

Id' suggest Stars. Here's a few of my favorite tracks:

Wait, so if the OP is to be believed this is the group's first LP? Always assumed they had more. Either way, I like what I've heard and I'll pick this up.

Fantastic band. Saw them live at Webster Hall in NYC back in June; brilliant stuff.
I also love the Recover and TMWS videos, especially the last 30 seconds or so of the latter. A perfect visual metaphor for how great pop music can make me feel.

Yes, they've only released two singles and an EP. They have been touring for a while with the albums worth of material though and have been selling out shows.
I don't even know what that means.
Can't wait for the new album in October and to see them live again next year in February.
