    "It feels like I'm listening to very sad, sanitized futuristic elevator music. Like I'm riding up the elevator, at my desk job, in the year 2048. And I know that, once I reach the top floor, I'm going to get fired." Like, what! There's a story there

      @ToryWilliamsKitKat_49 6 років тому +40

      but it wasnt even that controvesial if you read the whole thing, he even said "sorry im not good at explaining stuff" they just wanted the headline "JULIAN CASABLANCAS SAYS JIMI HENDRIX DIDNT HAVE HITS" which is why he was trending on twitter and people were roasting him, poor guy

    • @Sound8VisionVibe
      @Sound8VisionVibe 6 років тому +19

      The funny thing is they added an addendum to that specific line in the interview basically proving him right by stating that Hendrix songs were normally in the 20’s on the charts. It shows if you hover over the line.
      That was my point though, he wasnt controversial, that interviewer was just very unaware of reality.

    • @Sound8VisionVibe

    I really enjoy this album. Interestingly my low point is probably Black Hole, as I feel the production doesn't really let the song explode like it could. Pink Ocean also drags a bit, and I am only disappointed in Wink's sudden ending. However, there are so many incredible songs on this. QYURRYUS, Leave It In My Dreams, Permanent High School, Pyramid of Bones, Pointlessness, and All Wordz Are Made Up are the best of the best here.
    Light 9/10

    • @itsaUSBline

    Definitely agree with most of this review. I actually really like Wink and Pink Ocean though. The only two songs that fell short for me were My Friend the Walls and Black Hole as I feel the experimentation on those is a bit forced and unnecessary. I’ve warmed up to Black Hole but i still can’t stand those verses in My Friend the Walls. Solid 8 to light 9 for me.

I love that he mentions being a man from the 11th dimension. The way it’s put together reminds me of Phrazes. Idk man, I just love Jules and the Voidz and I’m always happy to hear your outlook! We’re Where We Were is one of my favorites. Pointlessness kills me but in the best fucking way. 💖

    Agree with most of your points, although I think Wink is one of the stronger songs on the album

    Wink is actually one of my favorite songs of the record, I get what you mean when you say "you've heard all it has to offer by the halfway point". it is tedious like you said, but I still think its such a fun track to listen to. the Instrumental in particular is what really keeps me coming back to it, I love the heavily distorted guitar paired with the drums that kick the track off.

    I gave this album a shot. Not really up my alley, but I'm open to new shit. It was an interesting listen. Definitely all over the place. But it put me on to the track AlieNNation, which I'm mildly obsessed with. So thanks for that. You made them $1.29.

      Jacob Ballance yeah. Anthony just was comparing this to greatness from last time and for Jack White he wasnt all that interested in a lot of the more recent stuff he had come out with so he was realtively more impressed by BHR

    Yaayyyyyy anthony!!! This was great! although I don't think Wink is boring at all. Maybe it is a little repetitive but it's so freaking catchy. lol
    Everyone should listen to this. I don't know if I am being quick to jugde, but so far I think Virtue is the best thing that Julian was ever involved (yes I am considering all the albuns from the strokes which I'm a fan too)

  • @GrumpyMustard
    @GrumpyMustard 6 років тому +1

    I'd give it 9/10 but I'm biased and have been listening to this album since it came out so the songs have grown more on me. I still love the unique sounds of My Friends In The Wall and Pink Ocean but I agree they're not perfect and probably the low point of the album. But this album still flies by in an hour for me and most albums from this genre cant do that for me.

  • @NEMA95

    I think the only reason they changed the name is because it was supposed to be "The Voidz" in the first place, Casablancas put his name on the first album to make the band more popular... it was a sort of clickbait thing i guess
