Yeah easy for me to say being a newbie to the band but this is their best album. Like I have recency bias for every album and this is definitely...
Etta James is his best solo track. Unless you count Blood Loss.
They are about as good as it gets in terms of a massive rock band performing live. We're my first "real" concert as well but not recently, a...
Greatish Hits Biggest snubs? Most surprising inclusion? For me I couldn't have a best of without The Night Josh Tillman Came To Our Apt. Perhaps...
I only discovered them this year when I was floored by Fest Of Tongues. I went through the discography front to back and kinda wish I hadn't...
Definitely my aoty at this point, amazing record. And yet I think when it's all said and done my top 3 songs will likely be the first 3 singles.
Bring It On was my favourite TGA song for years until I decided let's not overthink this their best song is like 9 songs on The 59 Sound then all...
Very cool that Dirty Mirror Selfie was named Song of the Week on Stereogum!
Needs more listens and I am happy to oblige, but liking these better than Fruit Wine so far, especially the vocal melody in Dirty Mirror Selfie.
Agreed, Fruit Wine is not one of their stronger songs but their albums never miss so I'm pumped either way.
Fixed
Kinda crazy in retrospect that the ultra-buzzy early records or maturation opus Romance Is Boring never got a BNM. But this is a deserving first...
Crazy since it's the same producer right?
Dream combo. If only they were linking up a few months earlier for the Australian tour. (I would accept an Australian Wonder Years tour)
I liked how Brian said he realised his songs worked as solo tracks or Gaslight songs, so he just wrote what he felt was best and the band got to...
On repeated listens this album is really good actually.
I just prefer the less aggressive sound of RFTS over War Paint. Both great though.
Never Feel Alone is in a league of its own and that is not a knock on any of their other closers including Infinite which is one of their absolute...
Bingo that part is a highlight of the whole album for me. Also I do not speak Spanish so the pronunciation in the chorus doesn't bug me like I...
I like Better Light and the title track. It Is Real, Violent Red and the closer are my bottom 3 from the record
I do think this and Coming Home are stronger in the first halves for sure..... My hot take is that I feel the same (maybe even more strongly)...
Haha I really like Meet Me In The Morning. I might be that song's only fan.
Ok fine relistening now
Dream has clicked for me. Great song. LPs only RFTS Mother Nature War Paint Gravity S/T Coming Home Golden Record Bottom 4 probably going to...
