Album Rating: 2.0
This is worse than their self-titled debut by a pretty substantial margin.

Yup. At the very least, the debut sounded like an album they wanted to make (as any debut does). This feels like an album they had to make.

Hmm that one doesn't sound good to me, this at least sounds good, but is just boring

Johnnys so sassy lately, I remember back in the good old days of the early 2010s when he was such a polite boy.
I haven’t heard the debut in forever, might have to listen again to judge if it really is better than this or not. That’d be depressing if so…

This might be bland overall but the opener is a genuinely great song.

"the “give me some tips” line from Taylor is so bizarre I almost laughed out loud"
yeah that shit irks me every single time i hear it, prob the worst lyric i ever heard in one of their records, hope it was taylor and not matt who penned it down

Disappointing to me and my love of Sufjan, I expected more

The opener is bland af and Sufjan was wasted. The Alcott just sounds like a sleepy Taylor Swift ballad.

Opener is all I've listened to and it like literally didn't even exist lmao, absolute nothingness where a song should be

Really like the minimal use of a ‘feature’

"considerably higher than this + bolstered by two palpably desperate staff reviews (with high high scores) trying to assure the site that They Still Got It"
Ouch.. well that's not a great sign then. I'm enjoying this new one quite a bit. Always found their albums to be growers (I know I'm not in the minority here) so hard to give an accurate rating off the bat

“Absolute nothingness where a song should be” is 100% accurate

“Disappointing to me and my love of Sufjan, I expected more”
he’s released nothing but unbearable garbage in eight years, so i’m not sure where those expectations came from...

"Playing High Violet after listening to this is wild"
i hate to keep going back to it but when i saw them last summer they played a run of this isn't helping --> eucalyptus --> conversation 16 --> tropic morning news... conversation sounded like bohemian rhapsody in comparison to the other three.
and honestly i posted about it the day after but i saw a few other users who also saw that tour say they really liked those songs so i thought i was maybe buggin and thought they'd maybe improve the songs before actually releasing them but........

This is what I love about music reviews and comments, in 20 seconds I have judged I can skip this thing and listen to sleep well beast instead
