The narrative Abandoned presents is from the family dog's point of view, or maybe it's the train tracks' point of view? Honestly I don't care because Defeater have never really been good lyrically.


lololol i like travels and lost ground but never heard anything else, can def see how this is repetitive as fuck

I don't get that last sentence. if its now presented from "the water's point of view", wouldn't that be something new as opposed to the same ol songwriting and narrative they've always brought with their records?



Good points in this, nice review!

Letters home grew on me so hopefully this will. But yea this whole story line is getting old and repetitive. I am surprised they have kept going with it.

Laughed much harder at "the family dog's point of view" than I should have. As others have said, spot-on review

don't agree that the overuse of the concept undervalues the first few releases. jammed travels, lost ground and EDSN last week and they all held up pretty well, cuz both the lyrics and music on those records were pretty great; that of these newest ones just makes it seem like they're not trying anymore. travels is still basically perfect, btw.

let's refer back to another part of the review

"The narrative Abandoned presents is from the family dog's point of view, or maybe it's the train tracks' point of view? Honestly I don't care because Defeater have never really been good lyrically. They covered the same topics and themes in every song, but used the narrative gimmick as a flimsy way to disguise blatant rehashing of ideas."

does it make sense now?

Oh yes, that's painfully obvious now.
