Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) Ah, gotcha. Thanks. It's been so long since I've had the album version and I've never come back to this one to compare the two. I can hear the differences now.
Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) Bloody hell, the deluxe version of Happiness isn't half plentiful of extras!
Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) If it's called The Mass it will probably sound like Depeche Mode's Never Let Me Down Again making downtempo babies with Condemnation... ...ah wait, I just described half of Happiness.
Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) I love Hurts! I never play their music. I like how I'm not the only one in this thread.
Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) I'm glad it's not just me then. They are a great live band and would happily see them play live again but I just don't play their album anymore......However I still play the Italio remix of 'Better Than Love' from time to time. I'm looking forward to hearing new material though
Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) I actually still listen to "All I Want This Year For Christmas Is New Year's Day" (well, during this time of year anyway) and, oddly, "The Water."
Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) I can't wait for this. It's in my Top 3 Most Anticipated for Albums for 2013
Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) Yes! Can't wait. Happiness is one of my favourite albums and I for one still listen to it regularly. I hope they don't move away from their sound too much.
Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) I loved how the Water was played after Kylie's Aphrodite show finished. It was very apt, perfect for the moment and it really made me like the song.
Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) I wonder if there s a hope in hell that Mylene Farmer might guest on this? They did remix Lonely Lisa and apparently the ex-gothmother is quite partial to them?
Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) The Water is definitely in my top three from the first album. Great lyrics, and an even better melody.
Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) I was thinking about Hurts the other day wondering when a second album would be coming. It will be interesting to see how they progress (or not). I'd like something similar to Happiness but perhaps a little happier.
Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) I think they need a few songs that are happier, more lovey-dovey and some more that are a bit heavier in terms of production. It's all very polished, so something a little chaotic would be a nice breath of fresh air.
Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) March tour goes on sale tomorrow so I guess the album release should be before then.
Re: Hurts - The Mass (2nd Album & Singles) Did I read something about the album being nearly finished? Maybe they'll just try out some new stuff then. Although I suppose it could all be done just in time. Do we know of anyone they worked with? Not crazy about the pompous title, but hey. They remind me a bit of Depeche Mode sometimes. Earnest, BIG in Eastern Europe, sort of overlooked at home.
