Flowers' voice is godly. Dude deserves MAJOR props from going from a guy who really couldn't sing on Hot Fuss to a damn fine vocalist on Battle Born.

He's killing The Way It Was right now on my speakers :eek:
 
So, uh, guys........the album is 5/5 so far 5 tracks deep :eek:


FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Yeah. Track 8 and 10 out of 15 were the only hiccups. 10 grew on me second listen. Haven't tried 8 again as I've been listening to the better songs.

Yeah, I am listening to MAB right now, a track I've loved for weeks now. I've been in the spectrum of really like (at worst) to absolutely adore (at best) for the first 7 tracks. Awesome.

Sheeeiittttt, I think you can hear a bit of Mr Brightside at the end of MAB!

Really couldn't sing? Wtf. I always thought he had a great voice.

He was autotuned to hell and back on Hot Fuss.

EDIT: Heart of a Girl is the first track that isn't doing it for me. Not bad to get to track 9 before having that happen!

They use that autotune shit live? Because he sounded great when I saw them live like 6 years ago

Done with the 12 album tracks - only duds for me were 9/10/11. 8/12 were good and I LOVE 1/2/3/4/5/6/7.

EDIT: Bonus tracks - I could do without the Flesh remix, but if it were me, I would have put Carry Me Home and Prizefighter on the album and removed Heart Of A Girl, From Here On Out, and Be Still.
 
Listened to this early today, and was quite impressed. I'll have to listen a few times to determine which were my favorites (I hadn't listened to anything other than Runaways before today).

Excited for the concert. And apparently they're coming to Fairfax in December? Thought I would have to go into DC to see them.
