Careerist doesn't have to do with appealing to the lowest common denominator. In this context I mean they're not doing anything that could potentially upset their fanbase, nothing artistically risky. The lyrics especially felt like fan service to me, came across as self-parody (but that's never lobbed at the band because it's so ~raw & sincere~).

I got you, fair enough, then, mate. Outside of Sputnik, though, from what I've seen, this has been their most polarising amongst fans. Perhaps other people have reached a similar conclusion.

Yeah I can see your point lucid, now I wouldn't say this is lowest common denominator, but structually the songs are more straightforward than their previous work. Their earlier stuff tended to be more linear and more interesting whereas they've definitely started to structure their tracks with verse chorus verse chorus bridge chorus kinda stuff, still love em though.
Lucid which direction would you like to see them take?

decent album but something about that "the people in the apartments across the street literally and metaphorically look down on me" line really irks me

Gotta bump my rating. This album just gets better and better with each listen. Currently a contender for AOTY.

It's kinda basic, but I can't imagine this not being my AOTY.
