I mean, I am willing to give it a possible shot but I don't expect anything worthwhile anymore out of this band sadly.

I like a couple tracks off this but yeah was basically off a cliff with this one, and hard to imagine that turning 180

"Hellsbirds isn't on it because it's essentially a B-side from The Work."



I am calling total bullshit on that. That song sounds *nothing* like anything from this album. Even when I take into consideration the lineup changes its completely different in tone, structure, lyrics, etc etc.

If this album was a person it'd be a real piece of work. They'd probably drone on and on about the scent of their farts and their library of curated Thomas Pynchon novels.

Fuck, the new single (out tomorrow) is actually quite Owls-ish. Solid.

My expectations and interest of this band is essentially dead and buried. Seeing them live didnt help matters much either they where fine but felt very static and bleh, maybe it would have been better with the OG vocalist.

Yeah I'm not expecting much, but I did enjoy a few of the new singles a decent amount. I really like the one dude they brought in from Black Crown Initiate so I'm definitely not fully writing these guys off yet. Hopefully they course correct hard from whatever they were trying for with The Work

Maybe too layered with too much going on? Or maybe the change in vocals?

Idk man, i think its because ive been burnt by them with this album. This is FAR better than some of the stuff they put out recently

Ill listen when the album drops 100% but i refuse to get hyped or look forward to this band again. These guys are at the mid level of interest for me tbh

Totally agree with Ectier. I feel like I should like the new song but it does not click (yet)

Best song since the highlights (there weren’t many) of The Work.
