It’s definitely not a good look. I also saw someone point out that a significant portion of their post was directly copied from another one they made when they played there a couple years back.

I'm against cultural boycotts in general, just don't be a hypocrite about it like Nick Cave (pro-playing in Israel but anti-playing in Russia). The fact that Max is from Israel makes their shows there more understandable, I won't begrudge someone wanting to play in their hometown.

Honestly they would have done better to just announce the shows with no elaborate explanation. Their reasoning is apolitical and too 'lovey dovey world peace'. There would be less backlash if they didn't say anything at all.

Pretty lame to play in Israel to begin with, but their explanation made it ten times worse. Especially since it was copy-pasted. What the fuck were they thinking

yup lol

Don't think people were as hip to Israel being an apartheid state back then, but it's hilarious that they quite literally copied and pasted the same controversy from a few years back. Bummer that such a chill and calming band would do this. Their statement says they want to listen and learn when they clearly....did not lol

Sparrow, Dried Roses, and Love Love Love are weaker songs, but not bad at all

Sparrow is the best and biggest pleb filter this band could have written and it is perfect for what it is

Sparrow is a momentum killer and kind of but not always a skip (the harmonies are cool). Almost every other song (possible exceptions love love love, blurred view, and dried roses) is great which is an amazing hit rate

I love this more and more but won't pretend to love sparrow...a one-note tune that goes on for about 3 minutes too long. It's not terrible but i really gotta be in the mood.

I'll give this another spin due to the hype, but didn't find anything special in this the first couple spins when it dropped
