I found the debut monotonous and boring to listen to. Definitely my least favourite.

And this is their best for me.

This is their best followed by Simple Math. Virgin is not far behind those, though, and has a few of their very best songs.

I give up on this band. This is somehow the only album that's up my alley. Kinda like mewithoutYou and untitled. Does not mean that they are bad. Just could not get into it.

why is this album so good



also did anyone else bother looking at the sleeve insert of the physical CD? some of those images, like the girl leaning looking off the roof and the one of her suspended mid-air holding something (a tree branch?) are both weird and disturbing

So db what's the new rating gonna be, a 4.7 or a 5? Oh wait you can't do tenths of decimals so I guess you have no choice but to jump up to a 5. *high fives*

I hear you. I can’t stop listening to it. I don’t know where exactly it would place in my best albums of all time list, but it wouldn’t surprise me if it made my top 25.

Yes! Love the images. They somehow fit the album perfectly. Tbh everything about this album seems so perfect. It conveys such a vast range of emotions, while still sounding just incredibly cohesive. The transitions are amazing and seamless. This is a fucking album front to back. I just completely get lost in its soundscapes and emotions.

The Wolf and The Mistake is such a fantastically underrated 1-2 punch

“I don’t wanna walk away from you”



Yeah, that line always felt powerful, but it really hit me last week in terms of a personal connection. It made me re-listen to this album which I hadn’t done for awhile, and it absolutely still hits just as hard as it did almost 2 years ago now.
