Disliked it quite a bit on first listen, but it's growing on me. It's really simple, pretty, and inoffensive... The people saying it sounds like it could be playing in a Starbuck's aren't really wrong, but the chorus is good despite feeling like its missing a line or two. Have a feeling it wont be super indicative of what's to come on the rest of the album.

Harmonies and guitars are good but they need Nicole and Mike back.

Better than anything from their other 2000s stuff actually. I'm pleasantly surprised. Still not up to their 90s standards though.

Probably one of the best tracks they've done since Adore, not perfect but very good though

I liked it, one of the safest songs they've recorded in awhile if that makes sense though

I'm not sure if I like the mixing on this track...the guitars are ultra thin and quiet.

Song is good though.

Not on the same tier as something from their 90s discography, but given that pretty much everything after Adore has ranged from average to pretty awful (excluding Oceania, which was still a bit hit or miss), this has at least piqued my interest in their new album.

They debuted 2 new tracks, One and All and Tiberius. They're both pretty damn good, but I'm too lazy to post it on the news.

Tiberius was fantastic, cool 9/8 riff going on in that one
