My ears are ready

The last track in particular is jawdropping and easily their best song to date

Relaxer is so good

Better than this?

tbh probably, I loved their ambition to go much subtler on here, but they really mastered their balladry on the new one. Plus none of the harder hitting tracks are as almost insultingly basic as something like Left Hand Free. It could've done with at least one more track, and the stuffing of most of the bangers in the middle of the record is a bit awkward, but there's no major flops and the highs are glorious.

Oh, and the girl who sings on Last Year, Marika Hackman, has an album coming out this friday and you should all check it.

Pleader is just a heartstopping stunner, the absolute peak of their career for me

Album Rating: 2.5

I've never vibed much with the subtler side of this band, I prefer their wackier stuff tbh.

Yeah Relaxer is definitely better than this.

i came back to listen to an alt-j record better than the new one. flipped it on and it was like hearing it for the first time.

because this stuff is so forgettable dear lord, a bunch of inconsequential, boring compositions shoved together with hardly any bite

Their debut was great

This? Not so much
