Run the extra mile and give it a 4.5 ;)

The lyrics annoy me a bit. I know one of Bjerre's techniques is finding sounds that complement the music and then making them into words. And that's great, I just wish his words were more profound and not borderline nonsensical. Lemon twist.

When they make sense they're usually about first world relationship problems. The music calls for something special. Some of their visuals toy with magic and nature and that would work great IMO.



Give your cruel ride to someone.

I'm not entirely sure if this is memorable enough for a 4.5, so a 4 for this is going to have to do.

This is definitely better than No More Stories. And damn, I don't know what's up with that song, but i'm quite addicted to The Night Believer.

The Magic Whip is one of the most "meh" records of the year.

finally listened to the whole thing

wow gorgeous album. i don't feel like it'll be as warm/memorable as "no more stories" was for me (still my all-time favourite album) but the sounds on here are just beautiful - feeling a solid 4+ but decided to give a 4.5 for mew love

also, really would have preferred Rows as the closer but oh well

I've spent 2 weeks listening to this non-stop, and it's still a 5. Love Mew.

2.5 just means you haven't listened enough.

"band doesn't really require multiple listens"



I actually agree with this

I needed at least 5 listens, and many reviews say it needs a while to sink in. Just saying there are people out there who are too fast to judge it negatively.
