Deserved. It's an incredible record.
love when old champs successfully comeback for another run
old champs like animal collective, vampire, and sufjan all been on one
need alex turner to syntesize unique vibes of TBHC/Car with energy/hype/storytelling of first 5 albums
something like the jam of boston is my dream sound for their next record. fwn/humbug tempos but the instrumentation and lyricism of their last two records
that being said mirrorball is my fav opener from them
japanese bonus track
cowritten by Steve lacy!
Classical is my favorite and one of the finest songs they’ve ever written
UNTRUE
UNKIND
AND UNNATURAL
They won’t sticky cuz they don’t wanna see some sauced up white boys from the ivy leagues win
Absolutely wild to me that they managed to somehow make that cheap ass alien vocal effect on Ezra’s voice at the end of Pravda sound perfectly complimentary to the song.
