I think his schtick is also getting old quick. First album was a surprise, it was a hot mess but I liked it a lot. This one is much better produced and fleshed out. But another record with the same formula and I dont know man.

Yeah fuck me I still love this too goddamn much. I do agree it should kinda end here though, can't see them doing another album like this and not becoming old very quick. Yet this is AOTY for me and a fresh new concept done close to perfection.

yeah Ship on Fire is awesome. The genre-blend is pretty well done in most places, I don't really see this as a bad combination of two genres that don't fit. Funny how this music fits the black metal theme even better.

"Row Row" is a great song for rowing, incidentally.

Jamming now, kinda don’t know what to think of this. It’s kinda all over the place but it’s not bad.

This is music that really needs to click. For me it did at second or third listen and it has been near the top of my year charts for months now. It's just so fresh. It helps that the band delivers on all fronts live and was the best concert of the year I've attended.

Yeah, a 3 to a 3.5 is about what I'd expect for this album from you on first listen. It's not for everyone and is definitely pretty all over the place. Not that you can't handle stuff that's all over the place, but it's a different kind of all over the place. Definitely one that requires digestion time and seconds.
