Really nice harmonies, Matt's baritone still rattles your bones - the lyrics are some of his best too



Given what they've said about the new album, this could be an outlier track but it's great all the same

What have they said about the new album

I liked this one quite a lot, but it's def not the most memorable

New song sounds like a Hillsong praise song, serious worship vibes

@Fogza mainly had some of Bryce's quotes from this in mind

What they’re saying in that article is just what I wanted to hear, and what I was thinking: return to their roots and lose the random guest singers and wandering orchestral stuff. They should listen to Alligator and Boxer to get back in that mindset again.

I can't tell you my sources but I have it on good authority that Weird Goodbyes is just a "stopgap single" and won't be on the actual album. The album will be out early 2023, is produced by Travis Barker and sees the band make their foray into pop punk. Features are reported to include Yungblud and Willow.

Not In Kansas is so so good, I'd say it's the one clear-cut masterpiece here in my estimation

"Quiet Light" is the song here I'd miss most, that one's just classic Natty.

The Pull of You, Hey Rosey, Kansas, Pool, and Underwater are pretty easily the weakest on here for me. Rest is very solid. So Far So Fast is my favorite.

Caught them last night and they put on an amazing show, well worth the drive. Matt ran through the crowd right in front of me during Graceless



However, they played like 4-5 songs that'll presumably be on the new album and I gotta say... I was not a fan of ANY of them lol. I haven't heard the studio versions yet so it could be different but it felt to me they are really trying to streamline their sound.
