You could get the same effect by turning the album off for 20 minutes

Yeah I'll gladly agree that Old Dreams is a nothing track and the album would be better off without it. And Fracking Fluid Injection, man that's a rough one. One of the worst penultimate tracks ever. I think there is kind of something there too but 10 minutes is just way too much. The rest of this is fire though, some of the best tracks they've ever made. Raging Lung and Stay Out Here are god tier

I mean I’d never play Old Dreams in isolation (why would you?) but it’s important and absolutely fine. No, not a highlight, but serves its purpose towards the overall album experience for me.

FFI is rather good, enjoyable even.

Old Dreams though I've never warmed up to

Fracking Fluid is an occasionally based masochism trip, Old Dreams is a timely test of r u smart enough to remember where the skip button is. I jam ten times more ambient now compared to when I got into this and yeah, it doesn't get much better over time

It’s a small consolation for sure

I just don't know if it's lawful to give such a high score to something with 20 minutes of filler, therefore I shall continue to pretend Old Dreams is essential, lol (obviously doesn't apply to some of y'all 'rating renegades' in here)

...seriously tho, it's fine. It doesn't detract from the awesomeness of the overall experience for me and no I don't skip, because that's cheating
