    This is my clear number 1 for 2024. Plays almost like a greatest hits of my musical tastes.

    No idea what would he number 2. MJ Lenderman, Origami Angel, Super American, Foxing, Wishy, Restorations, Hot Water Music... and late pushes from Father John Misty and Kendrick.

    Probably #2 for me. Incredible album. Still listening to it regularly.

    It's all hell.

    #1, followed by Waxahatchee and Kendrick for me

    No Fun. Not Ever.

    Still my number one. Chat Pile came close but still couldn't touch it.

    Living Legend

    This isn't on Pitchfork's top 50 albums or even just rock albums??

    Number 2 on Ian Cohen's list via Indiecast. Getting a lot of love on Stereogum as well, I think it could do pretty well on the reader poll after finishing 10th on the staff list.

    Had somehow never checked this band out. I don’t know why, I think the name weirdly made me think they were a totally different band.

    Anyway, I just gave it a shot after it was on The Guardians list of best albums of the year. Emo music, catchy choruses, and good lyrics that touch on politics and football? Yeah this is extremely my kind of shit.

    This is their best record hands down and I really hope the reception to this re-ignites the band to do more music. They have plenty more left in the tank, clearly

    I think it’s easily their most cohesive record, but I do miss the bombast and density of Romance is Boring

    it’s probably my second favorite of theirs after that, which is wild because Hello Sadness was such a big album for me and there’s a shit ton of nostalgia tied to it

    Gareth's on a recent The Art of Longevity podcast that's a good listen. Confirmed there will be another US tour this June and some more festival announcements coming

    I haven’t listened to this band since like 2009 but found this album this week and god damn it’s perfect. Definitely in my top 10 of the year.

    You have a lot of good albums to listen to from them!

    I absolutely loved the first 2 albums and then just never listened to any after that. No idea why.

    First two albums are easily their worst!

    They are so much better now than they were on those two. I think they get better with each release (maybe not No Blues, i don’t play that as much )

    Liking the first two albums is fine, but to think they’re better than any of the albums since Romance is Boring is WILD
