i still haven't listened to EPs yet but i'll get through 'em all first listen tonight or tomorrow ok
anyways albums i listened to today
most of this album was more like the weird interlude in otriad than any of the hype bits. i thought it was... fine, but the style as a whole doesn't get me very excited.
yeah i dunno what to say this is some of the most standard post-hardcore out there. i listened to the recent sparrows album today as well and comparing this one to that one is like night and day, there's so much more going on with that one compared to how by-the-numbers this feels. it isn't bad but it just isn't interesting
not sure if i'm sold on the sound of this one yet but it was, if nothing else, pretty solid. i enjoyed it & definitely want to spin it again. it does feel a bit dry in terms of overall sound though.
don't settle is very obviously the best track here but this does feel more focused than i remember rhythm & repose being, which is to say it's almost entirely more singer songwriter type stuff than anything. it's nice and pleasant though, maybe a bit overlong for the style (it runs over an hour and doesn't feel like it has much to show in the back half), i'll probably relisten again just because of how much i like don't settle but SHRUG
