Love the food analogy doof and couldn't agree more re lost direction



Still put this slightly ahead of the S/T which is itself incredible (especially the first half) but meanders a bit after track 5 (with the exception of calgary)

'but meanders a bit after track 5 (with the exception of calgary)'



because he was 'meandering' for the first time I quite like the variety on the s/t



now it feels like he's 'experimenting'...but in fact just tweaking the same stuff he did on that experimental section of the s/t

Don't get me wrong I love that half of the album too but wouldn't mind having 5-10 mins trimmed off it



Songs like Towers and Michicant (and track 2, I always forget the names of those songs) are his sweet spot for my money



Also blood bank has gotta be the GOAT bon iver track. Just godly

I love that list. 666 and 33 God are two of my most favorites from him. So good.
