"Napoleon says to take off your coat... take off your long johns too..." LP#6 finally drops today. Sweet baby Jesus it's been 4 years since the last record and boy oh boy what a hell of a wait it's been. Selfishly in my eyes, a new record was well and truly overdue just so it could satiate my growing obsession with the band. #weirdo #musichead. If album opener 'J-Boy' ("Just because of you") is anything to go by, Ti Amo is without a doubt an instant classic and a worthy addition to their 17 years worth of #topshelf records. This time 'round though it feels like Phoenix have fully embraced that new-found glossy electro edge they dabbled with on Bankrupt! and ran wild with it here. Not afraid to hold back, the lads from Versailles have masterfully indulged in romantic-pop lusciousness that is super Frenchy and optimistically soft-rock by design. Ti Amo is pure gold and easily satisfies the cravings one has endured for such a long time. I think I'm in love... yet again. ♥️#nomorewithdrawals _ #instantclassic #highlyrecomended #highrotation #lostinthesound #frenchie #frenchband #versailles #softrock #glossy #indiepop #leftofcentre #phoenix #tiamo #romantic #iloveyou #wolfgangamadeusphoenix #bankrupt #itsneverbeenlikethat #united #alphabetical #sofiacoppola #lisztomania #tooyoung #rally #victimofthecrime #chloroform #telefono #air #daftpunk #cassius #darlin #thomasmars #deckdarcy #laurentbrancowitz #christianmazzalai #fiveoutoffivestars #fridaytunes #toomanyhashtags (at Brisbane, Queensland, Australia)
