"Bad, just bad"

Purchased on Mighty Ape

The Songs played on Air/T.V Were the only two I liked.. I am unlikely to buy anymore CDs from these guys.

"Not bad"
4 stars"

I'll start in saying that i'm more into rock. However, I heard ‘Real’ and ‘King’ as excerpts from the album. This lead me to buy the album to listen more. It was a risk, it could have been sh** or gold. Thankfully, it was the latter.

I really liked it, something different to what I normally listen to. Expand my music collection. The majority of the songs were catchy and sweet. If I was to compare what type of music this is, it's somewhere on the lines of Troye sivan, pop, electronic, British expansion pop.

It's hard to define a music genre now days, but this is a band you would listen too while having a party (excluding the songs on this album that could be used to listen too while sad).

Ultimately, I liked it. I don't like to criticize as that would be my own opinion. You decide whether you'd like to listen to them.

Description

With their luminous brand of electro-pop, London-based trio Years & Years layer sweetly smooth vocals over bright and heady beats to create what they call “music you can dance and cry to.” As winners of the BBC Sound of 2015 Poll (an honour previously granted to such critically praised hitmakers as Sam Smith, Adele, and Ellie Goulding), bassist Mikey Goldsworthy, keyboard player Emre Turkmen, and vocalist Olly Alexander have spent the last few years charming audiences worldwide by merging R&B, deep house, and classic-pop with both elegance and abandon. Years & Years are now poised to take that early promise and breakthrough with the release of their highly anticipated full-length debut album, Communion.

Communion features recent UK #1 single ‘King’ — a gorgeously synth-washed track that reveals the raw yet lovely emotional power of the band’s gracefully crafted sound. To achieve that sound, Years & Years recorded and self-produced Communion in London with the help of collaborators like Mark Ralph (the producer/engineer behind Hot Chip and Hot Natured), matching an inventiveness inspired by such artists as Flying Lotus and Radiohead with a daringly confessional lyrical sensibility. The album was mixed on three different desks, each with their own distinct history – Conny Planks’, Tony Visconti’s and with final touches all mixed on the desk Dr. Dre recorded ‘2001’ on.
