Scootray Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 Just bought this today, and boy do I enjoy it. I liked The Matthew Good Band, and his solo stuff (or at least this album) is just as good. He wrote it after a year where he went through a divorce and time in hospital after discovering he had bi-polar disorder, and although I don't concentrate much on lyrics, you can really hear that he drew inspiration from his life on this album. Very powerful stuff.The opening track, Champions of Nothing is a brilliant opener. Starts off with a few samples then gradually builds up to lead you into the rest of the album. From the first listen through this is defintely a stand out track. Metal Airplanes is another track I took a shine to straight away.This is gonna be top of my last.fm this week I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 I love Advertising on Police Cars, but I haven't actually heard anything else done by him. Hmm. I should look into that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hot_damn Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Did you buy this on import?I'm a hardcore Matt Good fan so it's nice to see people over this side of the pond are digging him as well. New album sounds good - need to get a hold of it fa'sho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scootray Posted August 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Nah, decided I'd be better off just downloading it off of iTunes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
