I’ve got two Chvrches albums and I think they both have some good tracks and some weaker tracks. On the other hand, while people are recommending other songs they like, I received my copy of Soulwax – ‘From Deewee’ today and it’s bloody awesome.

I’ve only really seen the Chvrches NPR tiny desk concert and thought that was pretty good:

She’s succumbed to the affliction of singing with an American accent.
Ahm oot!
Besides, two blokes on keyboards and a bird was done years ago, and better.

I’ve the first album and its decent pop, but nothing ground breaking. As said above the likes of St Etienne (and I’d add Stereolab), got there 20 years ago.

Oh and the Chvrches cover song the did for the Radio1 Live Lounge was one of the worst things I’ve ever heard, utter, utter dreadful.

Aye two blokes and a bird was done years ago, doesn’t mean it has to be twee pish for weans.

the synths are heavy! Stop your moaning and turn Lies up really loud and cast yourselves back to the 80s if you were alive then.

..2nd album more girly and meh in my book though

This is a goodun.

It’s music for people who don’t really like music

C’mon, that’s Ed Sheeran! The very definition of beige pop!

Maybe, but all the fit girls at school were into St. Etienne so my memories will remain fond! 😀
Still prefer it to the Neil Young original.

Haven’t heard much of their stuff, but love this remix by moonboots.

You were doing ok whilst you were criticising the music, but there’s really no need to carry on and insult us as well. On a roll were you?

What? We’re only allowed one band with two blokes on keyboards and a woman?

So much casual unpleasantness..

Eh, go and listen to You Need Me, I Don’t Need You and tell me it’s beige pop. You don’t have to like it but that’s a pretty silly criticism.

some of the crashing bores on here need to lighten up

No offence intended! It’s easy to get hot and bothered online but I wouldn’t recommend it. I probably shouldn’t have commented at all, but I do feel that this kind of saccharine BS is worth a few seconds of keyboard time.
