Shouldn't be a surprise either with the Marxist pop banger they've made with Ping Pong.

Million is full of (nice!) surprises, I would’ve put more than a few quid on Transient > yet here we are. Ultimately, there isn’t an ‘incorrect’ answer. Different tipples. Their core sound was a lot more established by this point and this is the most consistent iteration of that sound

…and yes the new one is also “lovely” thus far. Convincing comeback. We are blessed.

Eclipses the two since Margerine for sure, will it surpass that one too (to be their best since Sound Dust?) Hmm. Exciting prospect!

it's a fair bit better than Margerine imo
and Mars
and Peng
which means it gets to toe to toe with ETK for the bottom slot in their top 5

Second spin starting now. Didn't take much of it in the first time round but I'm hopeful after reading the comments here.

starting with the 6th track there's a run of songs that sound pretty uninspired but cool album overall. begins and ends strong. solid 7/10 album

The new album gets better with each listen. No song stands out in particular, which distinguishes it from their peak albums, but it has a remarkable flow. It feels like arriving home after a long-long journey and taking a hot bath.

Yeah I have the same feeling. Homogenous in a very comforting way. Lovely stuff!

I like the new album too--nothing absolute standout, but overall very strong. Way better than I'd have thought they could do at this point.
