took some time to listen to this album finally and it's so good
i was really worried it wouldn't sound as good as the singles and it far exceeded my expectations and speech bubbles is literally ear heaven
I stood in my backyard last night smoking and listening. I think it’s a masterpiece in all honesty. I’m listening to it again now while cleaning my room and I don’t think I’ve felt this way about a project Thom has been involved with since In Rainbows. Not to say his output has been bad or anything since, I’m just speaking towards the difference between music you like and enjoy and something that genuinely resonates with you in a real way and this with out a doubt does that for me.
Finally got a chance to listen just now on a flight and holy f***ing s***
two of my favorite albums of the year so far dropped back to back Thursday night between this and MMBS. F***ing fantastic album, god damn
I gotta give this a proper listen
I’ve just had MMATBS on repeat so much I ain’t listened to anything else yet
i thought the album was gonna be good, but not THIS good
i listened to the leak as i didn’t want to choose between this and kendrick, but man this is so good. the most accessible thom has sounded since in rainbows
Heard the first few songs, sounds great so far. Always loved Thom’s vocals. Production is on point, the groove on The Smoke
I listened to this 5 times now
I think somewhere between 8-9 is fair.
The musicality isn’t as cohesive as a full Radiohead album ( pre KotL) BUT this is so much more focused and engaged than Modern Boxes
There are issues with the sequencing of the album. Overall I’m just so pleased Greenwood managed to reign in Thom’s perchance for electronica and actually focused him and his vocals
Lissen again
Listened this morning and there were little parts of all the songs i enjoyed but overall still just kinda ok
