It’s a bit more country and a bit less emo which is perfectly fine by me. I’m pretty happy with it on first listen, it’ll take some time to sink in but it seems about as good. Only thing is the shorter songs didn’t do a whole ton for me.

After 1 full spin, Skylight is my least favourite track.

That was maybe my favorite, most country track they’ve put to tape and I’m here for it.

Totes. I like when they go further into the country stuff but that song just did nothing for me. Perhaps it'll grow. Either way—happy the record's here. I still feel like it's very much Cardinal 2. Like it feels like it could be side B of a double album. Which isn't bad. Definitely slower/more country.

I wish they used a little bit more of the slide guitar that they used in Aphasia and Old Friends on Skylight. That Pinegrove is best Pinegrove imo

Overly downcast, monotonous and boring. Some truly gorgeous moments can't save it from being as memorable as a mumbled "ope"
Huge disappointment

Tbh I suspect you won't be alone in that, but it's still working for me.
Rings and Portal are my two favourites—gorgeous stuff. This version of Angelina rules.

Rings, Intrepid, Thanksgiving and Darkness are easily the best imo. Angelina is great but bothers the shit out of me; it is BEGGING to be let loose and instead they keep pulling it back to downtempo at the last second

Problem is when you have album art so similar to this is that I accidentally listened to this instead of the new one lmao
