Excellent album! Thanks for your support, Jim. Cheers!!
You just never know what kind of song you're going to get from these guys next. Pretty decent stuff!
I have heard a lot of disappointment out there about this record. Honestly I do get it . Red Alert is a masterpiece and probably their most progressive works. But as a stand alone record , this is truly very strong rock record! It took me a few listens to love this, but it is a solid effort by these cats! Loved the reaction Jim! 🤘
Hey Jim! Hope you are well? Surgery tomorrow! Keep good thoughts for me. 👍🙏🙏🙏😎
On this album the wheel is not being reinvented but it has been incorporated into the Finnish equivalent of a Rolls Royce by some master wheelwrights. Sometimes (well, a lot of the time) I yearn for something unexpected that I haven't heard before, something that I can't get anywhere else, something at the limits. To be honest I'm not getting that here but I am getting the very best in pop/rock and for that, the Von Hertzen Brothers deserve fulsome praise. Will it be in my top 5 of the year? Well, probably not, because I want more than pop/rock but bloody good try, VHB.
Sounds like Coldplay. Not a fan. But hey, to each his own.
Great reaction Jim although I was half watching you and half watching a chattering of starlings just outside my window. They were here to listen to some amazing music 🥰. Those last 3 tracks, just so emotional.
After having listened to the whole album, who clearly can tell, that it's different than Red Alert … I like In Murmuration, but I like Red Alert a bit better …
I also like the War Is Over album (which you have somewhere on your shelf) a bit better than In Murmuration. Knowing three of the albums before those 3
I can say there is no bad album, not even a bad song … but surely always different.
So 2nd Dec is coming closer and closer and I know you will have a great time. I hope you'll meet Mikko and his brothers personally, have a drink with them .. and think of me … who introduced you to this wonderful band …. and wished to be there with you 🤘
Love the start….its a Kinks kind of beat and feels – oh yeah and QOTSA for sure great call Jim🥸. Always like the odd quirky melodies Von Hertzen Bros bring together. Getting 60s vibes 😸
Just like the last record, I'm getting that 'what is this??' vibe in a good way. There's definitely something overall more upbeat about this album – a soulful choral element that melodically keeps you on your toes. Loooooove snowstorm 🌨️ 🌨️ 🌨️ 🌨️ 🌨️ 🌨️ 🌨️🖤Def getting the cd!💿👍
Wish i could be at the garage gig as id get to see these guys but mostly would get to meet you again Jim. Have a great time dude. Oh and wanted to ask are you going to the london Maiden gig next year Jim? (i managed to get a seat🤘!!!)
As much as I enjoy VHB, that 1st song was a blatant rip-off of Queens of The Stoneage's song Np One Knows. Otherwise, very cool new album.
