Going with a 4.5 for now. Anyone else find To Old Friends and New really disappointing? It's probably my least favorite track on here (or maybe just the most detrimental to the quality because of it's length). It's not bad, just not as good as the others for me. Maybe it just needs some more time to grow.

IDK the guest spot might have just thrown me off more than anything. I really haven't heard that song as much as most of this though, I usually make it through Four Score and Seven or Theme From "Cheers" before I switch it to something else or have to turn my music off (I listen at work and know nobody there likes Titus Andronicus). But overall this is one of the greatest albums I've listened to in a long time.

Enotron you have the best avatar, and I mean absolutely the best, on this site. I ranked my top 10 albums in my list "Country Music", Liquid Swords is #1.



But yeah don't worry guys I've heard the whole album quite a few times just the first half way more. I'm gonna go listen to the second half a few times right now though.

Picture bloodbaths in elevator shafts...



oh wait I mean



So give me a Guinness, give me a Keystone Light,

Give me a kegger on a Friday night.



But one of the best things about this album is that I could have quoted so many memorable lines. Sometimes I think I hit the climax of a song then I look and see there's still like 5 minutes left that are all awesome.

My vote goes to Four Score and Seven, though that may go along with not listening to the 2nd half enough. This is the first album in a long time I've thought might become a 5. I just need to love a couple tracks a little more. I didn't like this the first time I heard it either.

chambered I don't feel like that song is different enough from the rest of the tracks for it to be

considered soty but for you to give this a 3.5 saying "Lyrically, it's profound...and that's about

it." I'm not saying that can't be the case, it just surprises me.



EDIT: Knott I actually hope you're right.

and now i'm heading west on 84 again

and i'm as much of an asshole as i've ever been

and there is still nothing about myself i respect

still haven't done anything i did not later regret

my hand and a napkin when i'm looking for sex

and that's no one to talk to when feeling depressed

and so now when i drink i'm going to drink to excess

and when i smoke i will smoke gaping holes in my chest

and when i scream i will scream until i'm gasping for breath

and when i get sick i will stay sick for the rest of my

days peddling hate at the back of a chevy express

each one will fall in the face of your idea of success

and if this be thy will then fuckin' pass me the cup

and i'm sorry dad, no i'm not making this up!



And sorry EC, but Feels was way better. What am I looking at even?
