Ultralove would've been a cool thematic continuation

This may seem sacrilegious but I’ve mentioned before that the run from Heavily Lined to Ultraglass is not quite as good as the rest of the record. I mean you just have fucking banger after banger for the first half and then some, then there’s these three great tracks that just aren’t quite as good… so I made an alternate track list and I think it flows fucking perfectly. Lyrically it will veer a little bit from what most of the tracklist is doing but I just like these songs more and ordered them so it’d flow, idk give it a shot if ya want, it’s gonna be my preferred way of listening to this record from now on I think.



Witness

Role Models

Nowhere to Be Found

Apperception

Parody Warning

Fortune’s Daughter

Luxury Themes

FT. FRANK TURNER

AN ITERATION

BIG SHELL

AVERAGE DEATH

WHERE MAN KNOWS WANT

REAL FOLK BLUES

BAD SELECTION

On Jupiter



I feel like it also gives Cara a few more moments to shine, that’s one thing I don’t like about Only Love, and it’s a small nitpick, but I’ve always felt like she was severely underused and she’s probably my favorite vocalist of their little rogues gallery. Record still comes in at a breezy 50 mins

I tried fitting in Night City Aliens in there somewhere because like I said I want more Cara but I couldn’t really make it work without it feeling kinda jarring.

I find the run from Heavily Lined to Ultraglass to be very interesting on a conceptual level because instead of banger after banger for a whole album, the band instead treats us to a surprise serving of banger after banger for a whole album. It's madness and I applaud them for even daring to attempt such a bait and switch.

Only song I’ve ever seen them play off this was role models but god damn it was transcendent

They dropped this, hit my city a couple of months later, and played literally nothing off it.



I’m very upset that it’s likely I’ll never see any of these songs live.

I’m being so serious when I say this is the best rock album of the last decade.
