Chicane (let me down!!)
View this Thread in Original format

I got the new Chicane album yesterday and I'll have to say I'm very disappointed! This album was my most anticipated album of the last year or so. IMO it sounds like Nick has tried to make a pop album and not the type of music I have come to know and love from Chicane. This is a very sad day!:confused:

POP ALBUM?

these tracks are quality.

in priase of the sun, empires, some might say, locking down, and spirit.

I will agree that Empires is a very good song but other then that I'm just not feeling it.

I think the pop comment is completely fair, I don't consider the new album to be a dance album, it's much closer to the work Nick did for Cher than the previous Chicane material.

I don't think there's anything wrong with liking the album, hell, I'm listening to East Side Story right now, but it's hard to deny that it's a much more mainstream sounding release.

I am very disappointed also. Other than 'empires', 'arizona pt. 2', 'spirit' and 'kilometre', album is designed to gain a more mainstream crowd. I think we'll live to hear "east side story" being played on our radio stations. The song is quite catchy IMHO, but not my style. BTW, is that Bryan Adams doing vocals for east side story?? Is cher doing vocals for 'daylight'? Maybe I'm just hearing things, but oh well... :)

i'm very disappointed in this album. I have been waiting all this time for it to be available and now it has just crushed me. All these songs are the kind of songs that after you listen to them a couple of times, they grow on you. Yet, nothing on this entire album is like the first time you ever heard offshore or autumn tactics. This album is a huge letdown, and in my opinion, is by far, no comparison to any early chicane productions. Sad to say, it's a hunk of cheesy pooh!

Hmm other than the fact that some of the tunes are way too short I am really digging the album. Tracks 1,2,4,7, and 11 are all very nice but they just need extended mixes! A few of the songs have that radio friendly vibe to them but other than that I say its a really good album. Chicane better release some of these tunes as extended mix singles though. :)

LOL :tongue2 :tongue2

Seriously tho, a few songs on this album are very nice and chilled in the trademark Chicane style .. but on the whole, the album is a bit of a let down ...
