Listened to the whole album not as good a Discovery but still pretty good I give it a solid 8/10.  But I do have to give it credit for being more original Discovery was full of samples from other songs.

Discovery is something from another planet, this one is fantastic, but more human, lol. They may have tried to hard to be perfect, still, I'm really satisfied with the whole album.

Listened to the whole album as well, hate the single with a passion, bought 3 tracks, that's enough for me.

Which ones did you buy? IMO I think Get Lucky is not that bad, it's just that the marketing campaign overexpose it.

Instant Crush = instant love. Amazing.

Wow, it was a surprise you see you around. And yes, Instant Crush is amazing, Julian Casablancas delivered.

Yup, I've bought the album, and it's pretty amazing to be honest... not sure which I prefer between this and Discovery though, but I think if their next album can find a way to mix Discovery and RAM together, then it'll be a masterpiece!

I find interesting your hesitation. I would put Discovery first, as it seemed as a more solid album as a whole.

I'm quite sure that they'll release an "Alive" with remixes from all their albums. It's going to be even more amazing that the 2007 Alive.

I love their new album. The first half of it is simply amazing. The second half isn't all that great but the first half more than makes up for it.

I just wish they would release albums more often (either that or find a band that is very similar to them but I have yet to find one)

great album. I'd like to hear more of Giorgio speaking English with a German accent lulz

Which is pretty funny since Italian is his native language.

Yes, he's Italian, but he is from South Tyrol, where the majority of people speak German, and he ran a studio in Munich in the 70s and 80s.

@benoa87: I bought Giorgio by Moroder, Beyond and Lose Yourself to Dance.

The town where he was born at Urtijei, Italy 84.19% of the population speaks Ladin so that's probably the language he learned and spoke first before Italian and German.  He also has the most common last name from that town.



Whatever his accent is, it really doesn't matter he is a brilliant musician/composer/producer and he definetly deserved the Oscar he got for Midnight Express even though he beat out my all time favorite movie composer Ennio Morricone and John Williams score for Superman was pretty good also.

I know where he was born and I'm pretty sure Moroder speaks at least four languages: Ladin, German, Italian and English. Doesn't change the fact that he has a German accent despite being Italian.



Well he might have a German accent but at least its not as bad as a guy that was born north east from him Arnold Schwarzenegger.  Also there is nothing wrong with speaking English with a German accent that is what I do.



^ Same here (my tschörmän äksent is pritty hävy) and I never said speaking English with an accent is a bad thing. I just wanted to make clear that it is not unusual that Moroder speaks English with a German rather than an Italian (itsamee) accent for two reasons: He is from South Tyrol and he's been working in Germany for ten to twenty years of his life.
