I think I've decided my fav MM record is Building Nothing out of Something though... holds up so well

for the most part. Lyrics for days. I listened to the most recent one the other day on a long car

ride.. not bad at all either. Their newer material is underrated to me.

I think so much of Good News is just good well written songs... even if it's way more toned down. Idk I really like most of it.



Building Nothing is a comp but it doesn't feel like one... it was all golden era MM tracks too. Can't really go wrong there.

Good news has a higher score than TM&A on metacritic.

i probably havent given good news enough listens



and yeah youre right ckunke but it just lacks the cohesiveness that the others have



also I think M&A is extremely overrated

Aside from some very standout tracks i think M&A is overrated too. I don't really even have a good reason why...

it has some amazing songs yeah but the overly glossy production and a few zzz tracks kinda bring it down. it also ends waaay to abruptly, and if ya know me you know I love a great closer.

the LCW closer is fucking amazing. Basically I like a long, well-thought out and nicely composed track with a sort of "epic" feel that acts like a culmination of everything that came before it.
