No No No is such a great album, 2015 is becoming the best year for albums i've been looking forward to for years. I'm just thinking that if Zach did a Take Away Show singing Gibraltar on the streets of Paris again, jeezus, that would be glorious. It'll just be like Nantes.

Beirut never disappoints :)

[@qVICKYq]

Can people just stop complaining about how Zach had abandoned his old style? Try to have an open mind and appreciate the simple elegance of this song. I personally love it. Also, please don't judge the whole album based on only two singles, it's just not fair.

[@NoFacephilosophy]

Not many things have left me as speechless as Beirut did. Each song of theirs has a soul.

[@BrysonSpahn]

Not the biggest fan of this album, but there's something refreshing about this song. It feels like a nice breath of fresh air after such a long hiatus. Best choice for the album opener IMO.

[@matteobuizza4726]

Colonna sonora delle mie vacanze da sempre

[@eof2017]

Very much looking forward to getting my hands on the vinyl!

[@1mikeloz]

I hope some of the other songs on the album can capture their old balkan folk sound, I'm liking what I'm hearing off this new album but i cant help but feel that they are playing it a bit too safe with these new songs. The new stuff is great when compared to other bands but still not at the old Beirut standard :)

[@valerhi03]

I'm agree with you, Beirut it's my favorite band but the sound they had before was really particular now they sound good but that's it

[@ChronoSparks]

1mikeloz I agree with you as well.

[@iamjbpeel]

As much as I love their old style, I think it was time for something a bit different from Beirut. But not something so radically different where you can't link both styles together. Zac is currently writing about a happier time in is his life and it's definitely being reflected in these two songs. "No no no" having some pretty deep lyrics for such a a simple song. A lot of their old stuff sounded so similar it was hard to differentiate one song from the next. Keep in mind the two songs you've heard so far are meant as attention grabbing songs so people are enticed to listen to the rest of the album. I'm sure the real treasures have still yet to be heard

[@KellyOKellyComedy]

I like every direction they go in. I'm pretty sure Zach could start a metal band and I would swoon LOL! Actually I would be so curious to hear that hahaha

[@landlubber541]

[@michaelp.4890]

Can you tell me what the task was? What did you have to do in the exam? I'm curious to see Beirut in a musical exam.

[@eymanyouwell]

@@michaelp.4890 It was part of the Australian HSC Music 1 exam paper. "Question 1 (6 marks) An excerpt (1 minute 46 seconds) from Gibraltar by Beirut will be played FIVE times for you to answer Question 1. This excerpt is from 0:00-1:46 of Gibraltar by Beirut on the ‘No No No’ album (2015). Times: First playing - 5 second pause Second playing - 30 second pause Third playing - 1 minute pause Fourth playing - 1 minute pause Fifth playing - 2 minute pause Describe the structure of this excerpt, with reference to its performing media"

[@michaelp.4890]

@@eymanyouwell Interesting, so the question was about the structure. Nothing was asked about the instruments used. I don't know about music exams or music theory but I think "Gibraltar" has a relatively simple structure. Especially when compared to other Beirut songs.
