thinking that personally this albu mcould be excised of its first four songs and then be great. altho "dont swallow the cap" is good. leaning between 3 and 3.5

3,5 it, man.

pink rabbits, this is the last time, i need my girl, heavenfaced (to some extent) are all good songs, the title track is painfully average. Demons is okay but it's like Bloodbuzz Ohio on the previous album. Good, but not a masterpiece.

Still underwhelmed by this album. It's way more "hookless" than previous ones. Just try to compare how many hooks do you remember from High Violet and how many hooks do you remember from this album.

"guys the new Deafheaven album just doesn't have enough choruses in it. Just try and compare it to fun.'s new album, and you'll see what I mean! Like how many hooks does Sunbather even have??"

the end of this is the last time is awesome



having rating anxiety about this idk i hope the slower tracks and the ones toward the beginning grow on me bcuz i feel weird giving a "positive" rating to an album where i dont care about like a quarter of the tracks



i like the production on this a lot tho, the sort of subdued style

"I Need My Girl" is actually just the best
epitomizes the best of this album for me

it definitely has its moments
agreed with robertsona about this album having some low points though
Demons is just a bad song, fir instance

humiliation and sea of love are my favies



wow i didnt know that if you enter a null emoticon it just delets everything you typed after that lol

ok sputnik. and yeah demons seems really boring like cmon they can write a better song than that



this album ends so well though starting with "i need my girl" (or arguably "slipped" tbh but we'll say

i need my girl to placate the haters) so its like damn

sea of love is another favorite
humiliation hasn't really stood out to me at all but then again I'm only now beginning to think of the album's standalone tracks as particular pieces rather than just considering it on the whole

the more i think about it the more solidly this is a 3.5 we did it guys



toward the end i think this becomes an awesome insular (headphones maybe?) album and humiliation is a

huge part of that. just these really nice chords and everything meshing into this one engine of sound.

i totally see the tv on the radio. like "love dog" or "family tree" (ok i only listen to dear science

eff you) where it all meshes into this sort of ethereal rock stuff. and the ending where they suddenly

change up the chords is gorgeous
