album review: theophilus london – timez are weird these days (2011)

We’ve been covering Theophilus for a few years now. All three of us are glad that he’s signed, making big moves and is finally putting out his debut LP. But really, all I want to say is ‘Reviewz are weird these days.’

Hit the jump for the review, and go support this record, especially after he’s given you three excellent mixtapes for free.

hell yes. theo’s on quite the promo run in these last two weeks before his debut LP hits. the video reminds me of “paranoid android”‘s animation, but with way more slutty dancers, miscreants, drugs, liquor and other awesome things of that nature.

timez are weird these days drops july 19th.

stream: theophilus london – i stand alone (2011)

this is off timez are weird these days, and a track that theo himself said is his favorite cut off his new album. speaking of which, we’re a week away from the retail release, and i’m sure – hours away from the pirate/internet release.

theophilus london – timez are weird these days [artwork + tracklisting] (2011)

still can’t get over how weird this title is…but here we are. i’m not too thrilled that 3/5 of the lovers holiday EP shows up here (and not even the best one: “strange love”) but i’m happy for theo’s major label debut – and the fact that there is a huge lack of features, it’s definitely going to feel like a debut. production duties will be handled by several, including dave sitek (tv on the radio), John Hill and more.

i’ll be copping this on july 19th.

tracklisting:

1. Last Name London
2. Love is Real
3. Wine and Chocolates
4. All Around the World
5. She’s Great (Interlude)
6. Why Even Try (feat. Sara Quin)
7. Stop It
8. Girls Girls $
9. One Last Time
10. Lighthouse
11. I Stand Alone
