Sorry I haven't been posting so much, its been a hectic time over here in ShaneLand, but to repay you, my lovely lurkers, I got a leak for you of the new, yet-to-be-released Faint album, Fasciinatiion. I haven't listened to the whole thing yet because I wanted to get it out to you all as soon as possible, but I did get a good listen to a couple of tracks and here's what I thought.
It makes me a little sad that the Faint are moving away from the sounds they made on Danse Macabre, but don't get me wrong, this album still delivers, but in a more subtle way. The Faint take a more retro 80's pop style approach to the funky techno beats, and take a giant leap away from the darker sound they are known for. No more songs about erections, or at least that I have heard yet, but no worry there's still a song about birth (Fish In A Womb).
Alternative Press Magazine gave the album 2 and a half stars, but I think they were a bit harsh. I say it's at least a 3.5.
Oh also, just a bit-o-info for you, this latest album will not be released via Saddle Creek like the previous works by The Faint, but it will be released via Blank.wav records, a label the Faint themselves just created.
Stay Classy,
Shane B
