Yeah, this album is exactly like The King Is Dead so if you hated that you'll hate this



But I'm with Boney; their recent material is some of their best

still think castaways is their best album

Album Rating: 4.0

The only albums of theirs I don't like tbh are Picaresque and Majesty



They're not even bad I could just never get into them (and I really tried to)

Album Rating: 4.0

Picaresque is the best jam.

Picaresque is still my second favorite.

they all rule but Hazards may be my favorite

Album Rating: 4.0

Yeah they haven't made a full-length album that I consider less than great which is pretty remarkable.

This has actually slipped to my second least favorite though, idk why I don't love this one when I adore The King Is Dead.

Album Rating: 3.5

CRANE WIFE! I like this, but not quite as much as The King is Dead.

"Yeah, this album is exactly like The King Is Dead so if you hated that you'll hate this"



What do you mean by that? I think they're pretty different personally.

Album Rating: 4.0

I always felt the approach was pretty identical. They both stay away from any dramatic flair and stay rooted in lazed, countryside Americana with plenty of ballads.

Album Rating: 3.5

I agree with that.

Album Rating: 4.5

yaaa... i get what Sowing is saying, but the songs on this are so much better than King is Dead imo

Album Rating: 4.0

I feel the opposite tbh, King Is Dead has Rise to Me, Calamity Song, January Hymn, June Hymn, Dear Avery, Don't Carry It All... I like almost every song on that better than any song on this. Though King Is Dead has a lot of nostalgia for me.

Album Rating: 3.5

i feel like both albums are pretty much the same quality.

Album Rating: 3.5

I'm with Boney. I will probably listen to this again soon. I think I've only heard it a few times. I've heard the King is Dead a lot, though.

This is just such a pleasant listen

Saw these guys play in Melbourne last week. They played a lot of this and King is Dead, and they're pretty awesome live. Colin loves interacting with the crowd and he's bloody good at it. Plus they threw in a 'play' of sorts with Mariner's Revenge Song ... couldn't stop laughing.

They put on a hell of a live show. Tons of fun.

Album Rating: 4.0

Even though their studio albums have (IMO) gotten better, I feel like their live shows would have been more fun back in the hazards days...

Album Rating: 4.0

Yeah I bet a Hazards era show was doubly amazing.
