I'm not loving it that much so far. I love their other stuff though.

I agree, there are a few good song, but love their older stuff more

Yeah? This is by far my fave of their albums.. just hit Play and let it go.
Doesn't seem to be catching people's attention though. Ah well.

I've been liking it, but I like the virgin suicides album they did a lot more for sure.

i think they just hit play and let it happen themselves, you can play yourself only so much

i guess im a little wary of french musicians, unless it's medieval, associated with Gong or Daft Punk,
or straight up early Air or La Funk Mob

weird,
my girlfriend really likes the early stuff, but it felt to kitsch for me.
now she's got the new one and isn't really into it.
.. but i've been rocking it constantly.
go figure.

At first I didn't like Talkie Walkie as much as the songs on Moon Safari, but after listening to it more, I really like it. If you know a little bit about the guys, you'd understand why they make this form of music.

everything air puts out is, musically, perfectly crafted. they seem like design-minded musicians while most bands (even the ones music critics love) seem like they are just kind of going with whatever musical style is currently popular.

heard them talking a bit about the new album and it's alot diifferent from their earlier stuff that's its more personal, more about love in their own lives, etc. rather than the "sexy boy" and the like.
i think the newer stuff is alot more accessable and would grab the Zero 7 crowd and that kind of thing.. i personally like their older stuff more, but i think the new album is still really damn solid.

i wish that they could approach something with the same open-mindedness of the singles that are on premiere symtomes.
if anything, air are just immitating their own music and making stuff that digresses with every new album.
i thought 10000hertz Legend was really unique and shocking all the way through, but critics weren't into it. whatever.

yeah, that album is nutty, my favorite. the virgin suicides album is absolutely incredible in my opinion, when i heard it i couldn't believe that it was something from this era, it has such a seedy 70s feel to it.. shit dope.

New album = teh s4x0rz

all of air's work should be appreciated, because it's always good in one way or another. and sometimes it even r0x0rs your b0x0rs right teh fuck off.
teh list:
1] virgin suicides
2] moon safari
3] bit for "lost in translation"
4] 10,000 Hz Legend

totally agree with the original post.
it is an OK album, but not their best work.it seems that they've fallen into a trap that a lot of bands do after a few albums and rather than evolving they creat their music with an equation.
electo beat + vocoded voice (with same phrase repeated over and over) + X + Y + Z = song
im not knockin it too much, its still a decent album.
