I haven't heard it enough to love it, but I'm liking it so far. In my area, Circuit City has it for $8.99.

Anyone else grab it today?

I was about to make a thread about this! Wowwwww, I'm blown away by their ability to adapt to a different style of music. Reminds me a lot of U2's depth as musicians. I've heard the CD 3 times fully and I'm already inlove with every single track. Debate between which is better between Hot Fuss and Sam's Town will never come to an end between fans, I'm betting.

I love the single, when you were young. I may download the whole thing tonight from itunes.

OK I am completely in love with all of the tracks now. Even enterlude & exitlude. :D

I tend to gravitate to certain songs, then repeat them a lot. After about a week or 2 I start to play the other songs more. Sometimes I will have an album for weeks and for reasons unknown I'll hear a song and wonder why I haven't been listening to it more. That's what it was like with the Killers' last album and I'm betting it will be the same for this one too.

I really like this one sound I heard in Bling. It was around the 2 minute mark "I hit the bottom with a HUH" When I heard that HUH sound for the first time I rewound it like 3 times. I love that sound. :D

I don't get why Enterlude isn't the first song. :huh:

So I downloaded a few more songs from ITunes. I really like Read My Mind. That and When You Were Young are songs that really reflect the Bruce Springsteen influence. Are there are other songs on the album that sound like Springsteen?

Neither of you want to talk to me?!? I'm offended.

:Willatwork: :weep:

I'm listening to it right now. My list has just started playing. This is a really great album.

8/10

To answer your question check out Bling. Defintely one of the best off the album.

Thanks shogunwoot.

I always feel so shameful after throwing a fit of rage... :blush:

jrfan - October 20, 2006 02:01 AM (GMT)
:lol:

Sorry, Will I just don't really know Springsteen all that well. But I agree w/ shogun, Bling is one of my faves.

shogunwoot - October 20, 2006 08:15 PM (GMT)

you might wanna check out the river is wild too, sounds a bit like the boss as well.

and also why do i keep counting, it doesnt sound like springsteen but its a beautiful song
