“The birds on the window talkin” is like one of the catchiest lines in this album for me. Could listen to that on repeat

Eh idk most songs here have grown quite a bit but not that one (or “Interim of Sense”). “Walking Backwards”, “Days of Lantana”, and “Richmond Avenue” are wonderful though.

What a strange album. I’m not sure what to make of it, but I see this growing on me.

Yeah, Ben Howard is like synonymous with "grower" for me. Every album from him has been the same story: I'm lukewarm on it at first, then I love it within a couple weeks.

I think Days of Lantana, Little Plant, and Richmond Ave are my big 3 here, but Interim of Sense is right there...

"It's the vocal melody; instantly catchy without trying to be"



I don't think I could've said it any better Sowing

Completely agree for this album. I've honestly not been a fan of Ben Howard (nothing particularly wrong per sé, just not been my bag) but for some reason the opening 3 tracks got me hooked and it's taken some time for the rest of the album to work their way into becoming real earworms.

I don’t like the way you’re looking at me, Ben. It makes me feel uncomfortable.

Holy moly, this album just keeps growing and growing. Such well worked out soundscapes and atmospheres, and the melodies are truly beautiful. Amazing. Too bad the album cover looks like absolute shit.

I think the average would at least be 0.1 higher if this had another cover
