I don't think there is another thread for this group.  The new album Love is Dead is outstanding.  Three really good albums out of the gate for this group.  Any other fans on the board?

    First two albums were terrific.  Havent liked the two songs ive heard from the new one.  Need to check it out.  They’re good live.  My kids first concert when he was 1

    The new songs took a few listens for me to get into.  The third album stays close to the formula though and has some gems.

    New album is really good.   Not great, but really good. Has a couple guitar driven songs which is cool.

    New one is great. Return to form of the first 2 records.

    I didn't hate love is dead, but they sound better when its just them writing and producing.

    I need to check this one out.  Six years ago I was on a quest to own every variant of their vinyl.  It got to be too exhausting

    A few good songs on Lauren Mayberry's solo album, but overall surprised at the number of duds.   Much better with Chvrches.   Also, I'm a little tired of the men are terrible lyrics but I'm a man so I guess I'm biased and I don't know her past.  

    Regardless, excited to check out her concert in February.  I saw Chvrches back in 2014 and unfortunately haven't been able to seen them since.
