TBHC is the same, its weirdly different and pretty much not relevant, but it does sound great in its style.
      Its definitly not a bad thing though, they change their style just because they want it, because they want to make new music in different styles, which really is what you want as a artist.

    I disagree that "Tell me I'm pretty" was a redundant release. I think it is their most emotional and polished album. It's the most sonically ambitious after social cues. The narrator also states that shake me down was about not being stuck in the past while a lot of people think it's about drug addiction or being trapped by other people's expectations. I get that this video is one person's personal opinion but it seems extremely reductive for such an enigmatic band.

      Sonically Melophobia is much richer than Tell Me I'm Pretty, but narratively it's definitely their best record. It's normal that after you establish yourself with a big record you pour all your hooks and ideas into the next to keep people hooked. AM and FF did the same.

      Yeah the downplaying of how great Tell Me I'm Pretty and Social Cues are is really strange to me. It's like I couldn't tell what he was trying to say because he calls them redundant and then praises them for allowing the band to stay true to themselves and try new things which is not redundant and just seemed like it was contradicting himself.

    I loved Cage before then, but thats the album that made them my favourite band, and Social Cues solidified that.
    Can't wait for the next album

    Cage The Elephant refers to the "Elephant in the room" being the horrible atrocities that are going on in the world. The Cage refers to the media covering up these atrocities. In their song "Tiny Little Robots" they sing 'they'll keep you so amused, you'll never taste the truth." Their entire first album is very radically driven.

    The fear of music? Let me tell you about Jorge Elbrecht, the Costa Rican singer head of iconic indie bands Violens and Lansing-Dreiden. Elbrecht’s disaffection with popular music and internet culture developed into a pathology by his late twenties, resulting in dangerously high levels of stress and anxiety as the thematic content of his work grew darker. His deterioration culminated in the onset of rapid aging that saw his health decline markedly. This, according to his estate, is confirmed by a test of Elbrecht’s DNA which shows his genetic age at 76.
    That’s what I call the fear of music.
    His music is amazing, by the way, look him up!

    I love Cage the Elephant's discography. I find their discography to be really enjoyable. I rarely find anything in their discography to be not as great unlike Muse's outputs as of recent. Like my love for Arctic Monkeys and King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. My favourite song of theirs are, Ain't No Rest for the Wicked, Cigarette Daydream (which I play in my guitar), Trouble, Ready to Let Go. Middle 8, I don't think Melophobia is their peak at all. It was really them exploring a new sound. Tell Me I'm Pretty is a mix of refinement of Melophobia and their earlier music. Tell Me I'm Pretty is their music refinement.
    Matt Schultz is definitely writing about his divorce in Social Cues. I listen to it going through a breakup along with Igor. I'm always excited for whatever they come out with.
