Bibio - Mind Bokeh

Favorite tracks? I really love the last four. Also, Wake Up and Light Seep are tremendous.

I shitting well love this album, no pitchfork bullshit will change that...how dare they tell anyone how they should make music! Fuck em!

Finally seems that there's some proper enthusiasm for this album, good show.

Anyone have a rip of "Old Friends" ?

I'll send a pic of my Excuses 10" for proof of purchase if needed...

Gorgeous cover by the way

Man, I feel as excited listening to this album as I did with AA for the first time! I love the fact its strangely varied, moody, mega vocal oriented, I just.....love it!

I still haven't managed to get into this album... Hearing his remix Kaini Industries totally on random the other day made me remember how I used to really enjoy his sound...

Pitchfork only gave it 6.9, I don't understand why... :(

because its mediocre

Fitchpork and their opinions are mediocre though. The way they look at music really cheapens it. I give their site a 4.7, because I really only enjoy it about 47% of the time, according to my enjoyment calculations.

they are wrong 90% of the time, this is part of the 10% imo

Anyone heard the Japan bonus track??

Would love to as well. Anyone?

Heard the album today, the packaging is indeed very nice.

The album doesn't work very good as a whole imo, but it does contain some of his best tracks (I love K is for Kelson, Anything New etc.) There are also too much dull moments, which kinda ruin the album.

And I LOVE Take Off Your Shirt !!!

I don't like this release at all so far. Its still in my ipod. I wonder how long it is going to stay there

Pretty cool! Love that song... so fun!

As for the bonus track, I'll be in Japan soon and since I haven't actually purchased this album yet I might as well pick it up there and see if the bonus is any good.

until the next time it pops up and you are like wtf is this cheese?

at least that's how it happened for me.

Verical Helical Stan is OK, a short instrumental that reminds me just a little bit of Advisory Circle.

Stuff is awesome, the new video has a Plone vibe for me.

I knew you'd speak some sense here.

Really digging this new shit

Great album. Previously, my feelings about Bibio were... ambivalent.

i should listen to this then ...

If David Brent released a garage-rock track it would sound like "Take off your shirt".

samesies.

i don't think it's all that cohesive as an actual album, but i really really like a lot of the songs.
