after all, runner, mission, cross the sea, blessing, early morning waiting, immunity, miracles (came around to this one), and forgive are all really excellent. no bitterness is cool too, and ain't it easy fits the album but i haven't warmed up to it yet. feel the same with headroom piano. took a couple listens to really warm up to the overall sound. the album has much better thematic coherence than this (or most of his albums for that matter) and overall it's a beautiful record. the only miss for me is s.d.o.s. really don't know what he was thinking with that one, utterly fucking terrible song

i have only listened once and barely have an opinion lol. gonna have to let it sink in i think. certainly not as immediate as this one was



seems he’s in his wistful, “happy” era which is ironically more depressing to me than any of his blatantly sad stuff lol. can’t wait to listen again

Definitely not as much fireworks as HoS but more coherent.



We'll see how I feel about it in a few weeks. Happy version of Beach Music?

Also kinda disappointed that Miracles and Cross The Sea are my two favorites still.

I think after all might be my favourite. And yeah it's definitely more cohesive and that wistful nature lends it a certain sadness and I really dig that. Definitely not as immediate as this one, and it doesn't have songs as catchy as southern sky, but I will say this: the mid section of this album is kind of fucking garbage, and I coint only one blatantly shit track on the new record

it’s ignorant but he’s so legendary to me that i feel like he could put out objective trash and i’d still love it or find a reason to



i know the new one will click when i’m ready for it

nice!



i think after all is his best opener to date, and forgive is one of his best closers. i still like guilty more, but forgive is a close second

clicking way more on listen 2 with headphones. the singles fit perfectly into everything but also are barely indicative of the whole thing

there aren't any tracks as good as Southern Skies or Hope here, but i'm loving the production and the general flow.

Very good album overall.
