It is extremely rare to find an album in which you like all the songs. That is, of course, unless the album you're listening to is by Bastille. The band became a hit a couple years ago with "Pompeii", but every song on their album "Bad Blood" is amazing. Consequently, I was very excited when I found out that last weekend Bastille released their second album, "Wild World." I wasn't sure what to expect, but I wasn't disappointed--Bastille's new album speaks to my soul. In other words, it's super awesome. Here are 19 lyrics that will convince you that you should be listening to this album on repeat:
