very pleasantly surprised with this one! like you said, it's the no-frills brand of rock. this won't have the potential to be iconic in any way this late in the game, but everything is pretty well-written and there's not a single bad or annoying track. Some good summer jamz.

Exactly, Butt. This is as straightforward as they come but that doesn't mean it can't be really consistent and enjoyable.

I keep finding myself regretting not fleshing this review out but it would have just been an exercise. There's not much to expound upon besides "it's fun, basic rock"

Concise for sure, still not sure if I'm proud of it or not though.

I have a feeling you'll rate this similarly Gonz, it's great old fashioned rock.

Concise review yes - indicative that there's nothing to say about this band tho

Agreed - with the caveat that "nothing to say" doesn't have to mean a poor product.

I think I would rather shove a metal pipe through one of my eyeballs than listen to anything else this group puts out.

I don't get it. Why do certain people itt despise this band so much? They're certainly not ones to be lauded for creativity but they're by no means bad and are at the very least above average at what they do.

Plus their self aware behavior is at least a little bit entertaining

I expect this to drop to like a 3 or a 3.5 by then tbh. Great for the first few spins but not much replay value.

“I don't get it. Why do certain people itt despise this band so much?“

I really can’t explain it, but to me it sounds like the worst music you can possibly find. It just sounds like something a bunch of washed out, middle-aged hillbillies would bring out during some sort of festivities. I haven’t listened to a lot of their music, but what I have heard physically pains me. Like “Gold on the Ceiling” for instance. And that was supposed to be whenever they were “good.”

they manage to somehow combine being insufferably fucking boring and incredibly annoying

This band for me is on about the same level of awfulness as Weezer, which is not an easy thing to do
