D.A.F.C Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Found this artist recently, thought it might appeal to fans of churches. Absolute quality music, criminally underrated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiG Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Video for Miracle out now. Probably my favourite song from the new stuff so far but I still don't love it. Enjoyable enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-MAN Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Just can’t get into their new material at all. Just seems like a severe lack of ideas, really bland and obvious. A shame really as they promised quite a lot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieStevenson Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Yeah the new songs I've heard have been fine but quite samey. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Capital Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 I wonder to some degree if Chvrches are a one trick pony. It's a good trick, but after a while they have nowhere else to go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorge Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Agree with a lot of what is being said - they have gone from being an interesting slightly off-piste electro-indie pop band into a very pedestrian pop band. How much of that is down to them or a bit of record company string pulling, who knows. Wouldn't hold out too much hope for the album... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers2017 Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Got to see them on Friday in London, and then met them in Glasgow today. Were great on Friday and seemed really nice when I spoke to them today! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This word is exactly how I would describe the new album after a couple of listens. It's nice enough but nothing setting the heather alight so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Capital Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 I noticed Lauren Mayberry having a meltdown on Twitter the other day for some reason. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was something to do with a negative review of their latest album which she perceived to be more of a review of her rather than her bands music.

Chvrches once cancelled a festival I was attending because, they claimed, they didn't know they had to check in to a budget flight online before arriving at an airport. I've always been slightly sceptical of the band after they did that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Capital Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Could they not just have checked in online at the airport before they went through security? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Did they really have to cancel the whole festival? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grrrrrr. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Capital Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 (edited) Just listened to the new album there. It's not bad by any means, but it's just all very.......samey. Three albums of songs that are all basically the same sound. As I said earlier in the thread, they're a one trick pony - it's a good trick but that's it. Some good tracks though.

RiG Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 After a good couple of weeks spent mostly listening to Love Is Dead I think mediocre sums it up best. There are probably three tracks that I consider to be the standout ones on the album (Miracle, Deliverance and Forever) but everything else.... *shrug* 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Capital Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Chvrches have now had three albums and they all sound exactly the same. They're becoming a bit boring to be honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
