Hazleton could've ended it. It's lovely. <3

I Think I've Found It sounds like Soak Up The Sun by Sheryl Crow

Am I the only one that thinks it was a suitable choice of closer then? Epic yet understated, one of the better songs on the album. Second or third best I think.

Hazelton Avenue is pure cringe, but not more than The Descent.

He speaketh the truth. Don't Be Evil is in my top five easily. The chorus is great!

As for the rest of you rabble, don't make me break out the Matt bitch-fight gif on your asses!

Seriously though, what is The Decent about. It sounds like something I would have written when I was 16, and that's not a compliment.

here we go then

1) Golden Platitudes - brilliant song, production tried to ruin it though.
2) Don't be Evil - epic yet understated, good song.
3) Some Kind Of Nothingness - good song, sinful production.
4) Auto Intoxication - ok, has a certain class.
5) I Think I've Found a Billion Balconies Making Entertainment on Hazelton Avenue 4Eva - filler, faceless music.
6) The Descent - dreadful

Haven't heard the title track yet.

Does the start of All We Make Is Entertainment sound like Queens Radio Ga Ga or is it just me?

Hazelton Ave - Shite.
The Descent - Shite
The Future has been here 4 Ever - Shite (might have been a belter with James singing)

The rest is Superb in my opinion, the Title track is fucking amazing, as is a Billion Balconies, All we make is entertainment, Don't be evil...this pisses on everything since Everything Must Go...Super Riffy and Super Melodic.
Ace Production...
