You fuckin' shittin' me? I seriously thought this was a troll thread when I first clicked on the video. It genuinely sounded like a joke, like intending to be comedic. Or like someone else that hated M83 made a song with the intention of making their music sound as comically awful as possible. I'm kind of stunned.

Not feeling it. Still confident the album will be great. Hammock released a new song yesterday as well with preorder for their new album. It sounded different as well but still solid. This one is a pass for me.

yikes... not liking this at all
I really love earlier M83, especially Before The Dawn Heals Us for it's noisey atmosphere, or the nostalgic dream pop on Saturdays=Youth. I was a bit down on Hurry Up, We're Dreaming because it ended up being too pompous/ambitious for it's own sake. But that new song feels like almost lazy, edm remix friendly, almost cookie cutter synth-pop. I'm not surprised tho considering the massive pop they had after Midnight City.
You know, I really liked "that song" from Midnight City - was hugely nostalgic and inspirational - it always brought up good or crazy memories. So it's nice that you sold me on their other work.

I really didn't like this track at all. I hope the rest of the album doesn't sound like this.

Listened to it for 30 seconds and clicked off.
The piano backing track makes it sound like some drunken karaoke performance. I honestly thought it was a joke at first.

there is joy in sucking dick
It has an addictive quality but it sort of just fizzles with no payoff even with the build-up. I have been saying "do it, try it" to myself though FUCK.

This is some real Junk coming from M83, at least until the synth solo comes in the last 30 seconds.
Sounds nothing like Daft Punk.

That's a shame because the Oblivion score is fucking amazing

StarWaves and the main theme are freaking daily listens for me, along with Midnight City. More of that. All of it.

You have good taste sir.
Not really feeling it.
Saturdays = Youth is a perfect record. After falling in love with it I bought all the M83 albums. He's OK. There's some good stuff in his backlog, but also a lot of disposable electronic beeps and boops. The latest album was disappointing. I'm not sure if he's actually that good. Having the one perfect album elevates him against the rest of the beep boop world, but might also be his high point. Like, by a long shot.

Neither.
Try Steve McQueen and We Own The Sky. You will probably enjoy the entirety of the album, 'Hurry Up We're Dreaming.' If you like that then try Saturday's = Youth, but It's a much less upbeat album overall. Depends on your preference.

I'm a big M83 fan and I don't know what to think. I don't like it, I don't like dislike it, I don't love it or hate it.

wow this is shitty.
Oh wait the chorus just hit. May be salvageable.
They should still bring back their shoegaze-dreampop-ish sound.

Towards the beginning I was not totally convinced this wasn't an elaborate joke, but by the end of the song I was really digging it.
First three albums were god, digital shades is great, s=y was good. Hurry up we're dreaming had ok parts. This songs hurtin me.
The best thing related to him is the Cyann and Ben mix of In Church. Its my single favorite song of all time.

You sir, I like.
I'd say I like you as well but this isn't a surprise to me, I've noticed you and I having very similar
awesome
It really is.
The reaction to this song reminds me exactly of the initial reactions to Daft Punk's RAM album, man oh man were people so immediately turned off upon first hearing some of the songs.
I love that he is taking his music in a new direction (subtle trademark M83 can still be heard throughout the entire song though, so it's not like it's drastic). I'm pumped.

After repeated listens, this song is amazing. Even the piano part grew on me.
