    The melodies are everything I wanted in this song, everything is perfect. I know it's early but this might be one of Dan's best.

    It’s not as jarring as Pretty Teeth and the lyrics aren’t as great, but it’s the same vibe. Dan singing, piano, Matt’s verse is great.

    An inconsequential shift as the continents drift.

    love the Pretty Teeth vibe, super awesome. not huge on how the guitar and drums sound but that could just be YouTube quality, in fairness. fuck fuck fuck this is a superb opener, maybe one of their best

    Sounds like there could be some Derek backing vocals here too? Or is that Matt?

    I can't tell, but that high pitch at the end sounded like Derek.

    Is This Thing Cursed ? would be such a fantastic opener for a show.

    Wouldn't surprise me at all if it is for the 2nd leg of the tour when the record's out and people know it. Definitely a perfect opener

    I am so ready for this album. Every time I get into a little AK3 phase I'm always a little taken back by just how much these guys mean to me, even if I'm not always aware of it myself

    Had to relisten to that Pretty Teeth song, I think it's cool that Dan was like "this intro is awesome and more people need to hear it" lol

    I'm torn if I want to listen to this and spoil the opening track which I usually hate doing or to get to know it well so I know it at the show

    New track is excellent- much better than Blackbird.

    I love ITTC? it’s such a good track, and I can really relate to the lyrics (my interpretation of them anyway).

    Between this and Blackbird this is the most excited I’ve been for an Alkaline album since Crimson
