Jack gave them credit
i love Jack's contributions pretty much anywhere but his own records
Modern Girl and Jesus Is Dead are great, catchy tunes. Me Before You is nice too, feels like something Taylor would sing. The rest is kind of a drag.
Really did not like this, which surprises me because I never disliked his other records.
So much of it is a slog and a lot of it has to do with, of all things, the production. It's so hollow sounding and drab. It's going for this washed out mixture of The 1975 and late period Bon Iver and it just sounds like s***. Nothing hits, including the upbeat songs.
Goes without saying that the vocals and lyrics suck. Jack really needs collaborators to nail those aspects for him.

I agree with this, so much of it is so unmemorable unfortunately. The singles, alongside Call Me After Midnight (thanks Brockhampton) really were the best part of this thing.
It might still grow on me though, but I keep forgetting this record even came out so I never listen to it
