It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!
Courtesy of the internet, I have just listened to the new Tears For Fears Album (2CD Deluxe Edtn) and I have decided that (in my opinion) Tears For Fears have progressed to the "we've grown old now" kind of band and have done an album for tired depressed old farts who just want to ponder about life whilst falling to sleep!!!!! There is only one song on the whole album that has the slightest bit of life in it and that is "End Of Night." I would put this album in the same category as all of Adele's albums - BORING!!!!!!!!
IT ABSOLUTELY PAINS ME to write comments like this about a band who I have (up until now) always really liked and who have done consistently good albums!!

Spinning Today - What Are You Listening To Right Now? (Part 3)
Well I suppose that puts me and anyone else in a box who might actually enjoy this new album from Tears for Fears. I’ll go and take an upper now and order a coffin.
I didn’t think putting it in bold was worth the effort [emoji2]

Well, it must have been, as its drawn a response from you.
As I've said before, music is an art form and, as such, it is subjective; its only my opinion, I could say that I've put myself in a box with my own statement as I'm not exactly young but, I don't want to associate myself with an old outlook etc. and the feeling I got from listening to that album was that it was from a band who sound depressed and not full of life and good ideas like they used to be. The sound of the songs is a bit like Adele's depressing kind of rubbish - that's just how I see it.
Maybe I'm a miserable old GIT (I've put this bit in bold aswell) and I suppose I've got to wait for the replies that totally agree with me slagging myself off
