I still think they're Fun.

As you might of heard, the band Fun. have got a new album called 'Some Nights' and it is getting a lot of criticism.  I first heard of Fun. when they made a song with Panic! at the Disco a little while ago.  I liked the song they collaborated on and started to listen to Fun. and their album 'Aim & Ignite'.  At first I thought it was crap, but I found myself humming the tunes to some of their songs and gave them another go.  Their style was quite different compared to most of the stuff I had heard but it grew on me and I bought the album (and have enjoyed it greatly).

I was very excited to hear that Fun. were bringing out a new album and I was quite surprised with the end result.  This album is definitely different and a lot of people are pretty angry about that.  I can completely understand why some Fun. fans dislike the album because it is a different style from 'Aim & Ignite' but that doesn't mean it is crap music.  I don't understand why they started using auto tune or began giving songs a more electronic sound but I quite like the album.  It has more of a top 40 feel then their other album but they have become more popular so I suspected they might.  My favourite songs are probably; 'It Gets Better', 'All Alright' and 'We Are Young'.  I can't get my head around why 'Out On The Town' is the bonus track when it is one of the better songs on the album, but they must of had some sort of reasoning behind that decision.

It isn't the best album I have ever heard but it is still good.  People shouldn't hate it because it is different to their old stuff.

Have you heard the album?  Did you like it or hate it?  Leave a comment if you like!
