Boxer might be their most repetitive now that I think about it, all their others have more diversity in some way, even TWFM

Fireproof sounds really different from anything else they've done even if it's probably one of my least favorites of theirs

@Art: I agree that the sound is perfect and Boxer is still probably my favorite, I'm just saying this is slowly reaching the same level because I'm realizing the instrumentation and songwriting is more creative and interesting even if Boxer probably has most of their best songs

Apartment Story and Guest Room are by far the best on Boxer's second half, the others are great too but almost everything on HV is better
