Album Rating: 4.0
This definitely isn't the direction I wanted them to go in. I wanted more Ruby Pools type stuff. But having got over that initial disappointment I'm finding a lot to enjoy here. It's more direct and song-based than the album experience of Applause. It feels like a collection of singles but to their credit they are mostly very good singles. Still some nice tones and textures here. Feel like the bass is more prominent too.

I get that the second half could seem weaker on first listen, but after multiple spins tracks like Future Bird and In Your Fur just soar

My claws are better than these claws. They're sharper and more durable

i honestly find the second half stronger than the first (big exception being 24 light years cus that song is just beyond anything this band has done before)
like it's just a 4 track winning streak, ending on the best one

When it was just the singles out I thought Straight Lines was the highlight, but 24 Light Years is song of the year material. Incredible stuff.

So glad they released the stems for 24 Light Years. Gives you an idea of all the layers and effort they put in to it. Plus hearing Adam's drum track on its own, holy shit

pretty disappointed in this as a whole honestly. straight lines and 24 light years are so fucking good and had my expectations extremely high. don't have much desire to replay anything from this other than the three singles and future bird

Ditto. Album is nothing but safe and insubstantial.

Album Rating: 2.5
yeah it feels way too overblown at points yet still really simplistic compared to the former two
bit of a disappointment, this one
