I'm probably going to come off like I'm gushing and overly defensive, but I'm not sure I understand the criticism that this is inconsistent.
I Love You etc. (my new favorite abbreviation for this song title btw) and Neighborhood are the two I see complained about the most, even though I think they're good songs. But subtract them and that's still 8/10 quality tracks with some absurdly high peaks. And the whole thing is stylistically cohesive, they really have that acoustic folk thing going.

it wasn't nearly as immediate as black mile for me, but this reveals itself to be a really strong album front to back. wheel well,lake house, and army are hard 5s though

@Sowing interesting that you called out I Love You and Neighborhood on this as the ones pointed to as weak tracks ... I listened through this twice and wasn't very captured by it at all, but the two tracks I definitely remember distinctly are I Love You and Neighborhood. Probably because they stand out more as being a bit stylistically different? Not sure.

Oh don't get me wrong I love both tracks. They're just the ones I've seen getting called out the most in this thread. I don't get it either.

I like I Love You — it’s not close to being one of the best here, but it’s solid. That said, I can see why some would hate it. For my money, it’s the poppiest song here and liable to get stuck in your head. I can definitely see why the melody annoys some people, but it doesn’t me. Sort of like Forest Whitaker. Very poppy, disctinct melody that will annoy some people.
Neighborhood though might be the worst here for me. It’s not a bad song — maybe 2.5/3 — but to me, it’s pretty bland and forgettable. It’s the only song on the album where I still can’t remember how it sounds.

It's meant to be plain, dark

Forrest Whittaker is waay superior to I Love you etc. imo. Forrest is a pop masterpiece, I love you etc. sounds like an American Authors single lmao.
Also just noticed that Can’t Get it Out by brand new deffff cops the vibe of Forrest Whittaker.

Just because we have a baby
Doesn't mean that you belong to me
Oh, and if I ever lose you
If that horrible day ever comes
I don't know how I'd recover
I don't know what race I'd run
But I know that I'd love you
The day that we swore on that ring
