You went for Maneater as well, right? That was great as well, been on my main rotation since it came out.

New album, Oct 7th, called Fresh Blood for Tired Vampyres. 1. Acid Reducer 2. Number of The Beast 3. Mood Is Improving 4. I'll Be In Touch 5. Lottery Reptiles 6. Dance WIth Dark Forces 7. Skin Caboose 8. My Dreams 9. Greener Pastures 10. I Got The Box 11. Lee Did This To Me 12. The Lover's Pie 13. Space Walkin' Also, doubling the love of that Obsession cover.

Can't wait. Hopefully this one will be one of the better ones.

The last couple of albums have been good but unremarkable, hopefully this will be a bit more interesting?

Electric Six on a booze cruise: good idea, great idea, or don't bother? That's the venue that they're playing at when they come to NYC. Or I can just catch them when they play in Jersey City.

I haven't done it years, but when I did it was fun. Someone post the E6 chart.

The KS just went live for the new 2-disc set. One disc will be covers like Mimicry, one will be a live album at Oxford Academy. I gotta say, I am extremely tempted by the karaoke set at the $80 level but idk how receptive the local places would be to me handing them a disc on karaoke night. Also tempted by the stock advice reward level but if their first piece of advice isn't "don't throw $100 for stock advice at people who don't know anything about stocks" I'd be very disappointed.

I hope someone also chooses the E6 remix reward level. That sounds potentially really cool as well (I enjoyed some of the alternate takes on Memories)

So I went to the show last night and it was great. I hadn't seen them since the Absolute Treasure show, so it was nice to hear some of the songs from the last two albums that came out since then. A highlight was they played Improper Dancing up until the STOP, went directly into (Who the Hell Just) Call my Phone and played that in it's entirety, then finished Improper Dancing. Also getting to hear them do Cat People live was nice too. This was the fourth time I've seen them so the rest of the set I've heard before, but they kicked rear end as usual. Also got a copy of the new album. Only half way through so far, but it's already better than Bitch, Don't Let Me Die by a fair amount.

Album is out now, and I'm really surprised by how much I like it. A few duds, but mostly just from Dick yelping when I wish he would play it a bit cooler. Overall leagues better than BDLMD and a really solid album.

I'm more than a little pissed at myself for forgetting they were here in DC last weekend. It's always such a drat good show.

The new album is better than BDLMD, despite being really samey in the middle. The first songs and the final songs are all good. I still think Number of the beast is the best song, it reminds me of Heartbeats and Brainwaves. I'm still not sure if this one is like KILL where a few relistens makes me appreciate and actually like the album, or if it's like Human Zoo where there's one fantastic song and a bunch of bad ones. There's no new Gay Bar or Hello! I see you on this album, though.

Haven't heard the whole album yet, but I really like Mood is Improving. Just feels like it subtly builds until it's totally jubilant by the end. The songs I've heard so far are more low-key than I've come to expect, but they do catch on after a couple listens.

"Mood is Improving" is great, and "My Dreams" is working its way into my brain in the way "Interchangeable Knife" or "Food Dog" did.

The new album's good and has a few catchy songs, but it doesn't sound much better than BDLMD. I thought it was just because I was playing it on my bluetooth speaker, but no, I put on my headphones and it doesn't sound great. The percussion and synth are totally drowning out Valentine in some of the songs like Lottery Reptiles or The Number of the Beast and the whole thing sounds muddy and confusing.

Something is really wrong with whoever has been mixing songs in their latest albums.

Are they running out of money? Do we need a Kickstarter for them to buy some new equipment? I think, listening on my Sonos, that this album is slightly better than the last but it's still beginning to dip into a low-rent garage band sound, which isn't a compliment. And that's a shame because if the production of I Will Exterminate... was on this album, it would sound drat good! The music is absolutely there, the best since H&B, if not better as a complete package. With better mixing and a fuller sound as opposed to a lounge singer band, I'd already have this in the - dare I say - mid to top half of my E6 album ratings.

So, uh, they forgot to play my kickstarter song during the Boston show, and immediately remembered AFTER the show and ran out to apologize saying they'd make it up to me. I said it wasn't a huge deal, and just make it up for me the next time they're around. A few days later, they offered to fly me to Chicago and put me up for the night on their dime, which is way above and beyond anything they had to do. So, uh, here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXRlGyP-jeQ He only forgot a few of the words, which isn't bad for a cover they'll never play again.

Saw them live in York last Tuesday, extremely loud and very fun but there seemed to be an awful lot of single middle aged men who stood around nodding along instead of dancing, which is heartbreaking because if you can't cut loose at an electric six gig then where can you cut loose cmon guys
