Great record. Rein In Me doesn't rank as high for me but that could change. Crumbling Empire my #2

My first experience with this guy's music - definitely a style I like.



Feels like the title track, Crumbling Empire, and Reign Me In are on another level than the other material, that's my main complaint here, another also a commentary on how good those three tracks are.

‘Nostalgia’s Lie’ following the opener is so good, lifts it…but maybe Reign Me In is better

Woah, this is hell of a music! Didn't know him till now and I need more spins but still... Got some Springsteen vibe here and there which I adore.

pika hates on The Gaslight Anthem for "apeing Springsteen" but then 4's this album that sounds 10x more like him

Yeah I do get slightly put off by the War on Drugs/Springsteen imitating clearly going on but there’s bloody decent stuff on here.

Well done for reviewing this one. From the first spins this does not sound as exciting as the first two albums, nonetheless a solid release. Sam is a great artist

it's just crazy to see people hype something up purely because of where the dude that made it is from when you know for a fact they would hate it if he was from somewhere else
