sambosa75 Posted 18 March, 2011 Share Posted 18 March, 2011 Hi all, Has anyone heard the new album from the Vaccines yet? The drummer Pete is a mate of mine. A fellow Chandlers Ford boy. Much love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sambosa75 Posted 18 March, 2011 Author Share Posted 18 March, 2011 They arent, just Pete. He's been living up in London for a few years as a session drummer. He's a good lad though. Very grounded. He went to Thornden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sotonjoe Posted 18 March, 2011 Share Posted 18 March, 2011 Heard their song 'Do you Wanna' (think that's what it's called anyway) and thought it was good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manji Posted 18 March, 2011 Share Posted 18 March, 2011 Over-hyped,mediocre and derivative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He went to Thornden. Justin the singer was at Brock College at the same time as me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rory Posted 22 March, 2011 Share Posted 22 March, 2011 A little rushed, but here's my take: http://luminousplectrum.blogspot.com/2011/03/album-review-vaccines-what-did-you.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambosa75 Posted 24 March, 2011 Author Share Posted 24 March, 2011 The Mrs bought me the album yesterday. I put it on whilst I was cooking dinner. I've got to say I really liked it. Short, catchy tunes. Not self-indulgent and probably the shortest album I own at just over 30 mins long but it does kind of leave you wanting to hear what else they've got which can only be a good thing when they release their 2nd album. As for manji's comment, is it their fault they've been over-hyped? The are mediocre by who's standards? As for derivative, I implore you to tell me of a band breaking out now that arent "derivative" in one form or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
