The Alt J album is actually very good. Not number 2 good, but surprisingly good.

Saw on twitter that Futurology is at number 4 in Q magazine's albums of the year list…. not that these things matter …

41 in NME's Top 50 and the single Futurology was 35 in their Top 50 tracks!

Find the single a bit boring really, but there you go... Well done Manics.

Odd how the single charts higher than the album in NME's crazy minds.

Futurology to me is a far better song than WMTTB, but not the better single of the two (in the old-fashioned, commercially-savvy sense).

Still loving this album; after seeing the band live Saturday night here in Dublin, I put on Futurology when home and before I knew it, I'd listened twice! Had it on again yesterday - I feel it's a sterling album, there isn't any track on it I don't like, ditto the 7 B Sides.
Quite a run they've had, reviews I read online talk of the last 4 albums; all so different to each other, but all of a high quality, 'Journal..' to 'Futurology'. |

I listened to it last week for the first time since it leaked and I was pleasantly surprised. I had made my own version of the album using the demos and extra tracks I preferred to I had completely forgotten about some on the production elements on the finished album. It is patchy but it's worth a (re)listen.

I'm finding myself listening to RTF more than Futurology. I think I relate more to the themes on RTF at this time of year. Futurology is definately a spring soundtrack.

RTF and F
I love both; I only discovered RTF this year when Futurology was released. My daughter was born on the day RTF was released last year, I didn't have much time for catching up on albums; gave it a short listen, just once, didn't take to it. Revisited it during the hype of the Futurology release, and loved it!
Two very strong albums, and 12 bonus tracks/B Sides combined, so on ipod THREE very strong albums 2013/2014 from one of my favourite acts. Great time to be a fan |
