  1. Let all be honest with ourselves though, chillin on the porch is the vibe of this entire band in general. Maybe save for Taster

    It’s not a work of art or anything but I agree with you. Chorus has a hate boner for Ian Cohen

    Didn’t even realize it was Ian Cohen and I also don’t have an opinion on him. Just thought it wasn’t a great review and Aaron summed up why.

  6. I interviewed Ian lol I don't have a hate-boner for him. I have issues with the way he's written about mental health in the past, but similar to @imthegrimace , I didn't even look at who wrote it. Just felt it was a little messy and weird. But I also wrote a review, so maybe it's not my place to speak on that.

    I did, but I just got it from an indie shop not from the band itself

  10. I didn’t get a shipping notification, but I just checked my order on the Merchtable site and it says shipped. Guess I’ll be keeping an eye on Informed Delivery this week

    All really great except for Taster, just didn't love the production on that one.

  12. I will say, Ian was right about "(ruin my) Ride" still being this band's best track to date

    no invite smdh, I’m only 5ish hours away.
     
  17. You didn’t get an invite? He flew me out. He keeps making me leave during the sad songs though and when I come back his face is all red like he’s been crying but he keeps swearing to god he hasn’t been crying. It’s a mean bratwurst though

    Meant is maybe my favorite song of theirs at this point. This album is so special.

    Hovvdy does not sound like mk.gee in any capacity

    First time listener to these guys. Been keeping this on repeat since yesterday. It's fantastic. The melodies are all so tight and the pacing of the album is perfect. I love how every song is memorable, but they spread out these HUGE singles like Jean, Forever, Meant, and Bad News (which are all incredible). Really helps the album get into this nice ebb and flow.

    Can't wait to get into the rest of their albums, but gonna have to hang with this a while longer.

    Yeah I wanna check out their back catalog but it’s so hard not to just immediately toss this on
