So many of the lyrics are just so cringe worthy. It makes me sad.

This is a bit less immediate than their other stuff (and it's also not as good), but it does grow. For a while I was kind of meh on this album but I came back to it a month or two ago and it clicked a lot better for me, bumped my rating.



Of course I am someone who barely cares about lyrics (which is the main gripe I see in the last couple of comment pages), so that might be why it doesn't bother me.

"this album is straight garbage. corny dad rock. Simple Song is a nice little jam. the rest of this went right into my recycle bin after a couple listens."



I feel like simple song is pretty mediocre compared to some of the songs here. You should give some of the others a chance to grow.

It's Only Life is... ugh

Looking back I like more songs than I dislike

Mama, lost my sweet tooth, what's the point in going 'round? Your boy is losing count. Maybe, try the lost and found?

Ayyyyy new Shins album. Mercer is shooting for January. Says it more closely resembles the older albums.

Absolutely love Wincing TNA and of course Oh Inverted World but I still haven't checked this one out. Worth it?

You may as well, it's a solid indie pop album with a few great tunes (Simple Song, Rifle's Spiral, September) but nothing special overall.

Worth checking if you like the more polished sound of Wincing.
