    the combo of the banjo & the beat in unison reminds me of the first Freelance Whales LP so much

    One of the reviewers described the album as a rock opera and that really clicked. Would be incredible as a rumination on the themes presented here
    that’s high praise, no shade detected

    Yeah, I don’t hear that. He’s like a baritone Bono.

    There's a few songs where his voice reminds me a little of Michael Bublé...

    I could not get into their firstlast album, I'll have to go back and revisit it, but this one is fantastic from the jump.

    Ah, thanks for correcting me on that. Their last one, I guess, Go Farther In Lightness.

    This is what I’ve always heard as well. I remember somebody saying Craig Finn, but I don’t really hear that either.

    His voice sometimes reminds me of the lead singer of the christian band Future of Forestry

    Never listened to this band before but woah this rules. Super on board. Need a few more listens but this could be my potential AOTY already.

    I think the problem for me is that it’s so earnest that it is cheesy. Some truly cool “rock” moments and then a lot of cringe. I want to like this. I do.

    no issue. I can see it, I really can. I just don’t feel that way & I can’t explain why but I’m happy about it.
