I’ll probably listen to this

 

Nice video! I like it.

 

Easily the best thing to come out so far this year. What a tremendous album. Her 6-album streak is pretty much unmatched.

 

I like this a lot. I need more listens with it before saying I love it, but I definitely think this could grow even more on me. Sugartooth is an early standout right now

 

Really loved this. Listened to it twice so far today. The last half was particularly strong.

(in response to both sentences)

 

Yeah like usual this is really good. Whatever You Do through Sugartooth are my jams.

 

I love Brian Fallon. And will still say that every single Carlile album is better than every single Fallon record that isn't The '59 Sound or American Slang.

 

Bold statement. I don't feel that way but Fallon is literally my favorite songwriter haha. Carlile is absurdly underrated, especially for someone who had such a big hit early on. This year is off to a really great start and I don't know how any of these records will age but I am really digging this one though. Probably more than her last two tbh.

 

Yeah this year is already deep with quality. And that's with some big ones on the horizon (Monae, Musgraves, etc.)

 

This album has grown on me heavily. Sugartooth and Hold Out Your Hand are great. Will definitely be in my top 10-15 at the end of the year.

 

New Ashley Monroe single on Friday, too. You see that?

 

I was just thinking about her cool

 

I did not! It's going to be an embarrassment of riches this year.

 

This is real good

 

So this is real good, but I do not like "Hold Out Your Hand". Skip it every time.

 

It’s probably my least favorite, but she just sounds like she’s having so much damn fun that I can’t really fault her for it.

 

Hold Out Your Hand might be my favorite

 

Looks like just the 2 shows unfortunately, wish they were closer

 

"I'd see that tour," he said, obviously.

 

Man "Party of One" is such an amazing closer and I just love some of the lyrics.

"Waiter send this to the table, the party of one. The only other lonely soul in this place"

"Don't even think about your freedom
Or taking that flight
Or going back upon your promise after fighting for the right
Because your eggshells and your right statements and your weaponized words
Are paper tigers now
Oh your constant overthinking and your secretive drinking
Are making you more and more alone"

 

Hold Out Your Hand is my favorite. Highlight of a superb album.

"The devil don't take a break,
That devil don't take a break,
The devil don't take a break,"

 

My girlfriend got me tickets to the Maine show with Isbell for my birthday. Hell yeah.

 

My god, this album

Feel like 'The Tree' got all the attention and praise that this album deserved more

 

I like Lori’s album more and just generally think she is a superior songwriter, but this record is still in pretty regular rotation for me too. Definitely my favorite from Carlile.
