    I say that but theres probably tons of producers they would do great with. I wonder what a MIke Sapone Manchester Orchestra record would sound like.

    They’ll probably focus on Bad Books for the next 12-18 months tbh

    Good guy, but a bad dude

    This is in my top 10 of all time, I feel it's a crazy feat at 27 years old to enjoy a new album that much

    Yeah, the first 3 times I listen to this....I knew this was it. They had finally done it, made the masterpiece I'd been waiting for them to make.

    I remember it washing over me. It was like, all of a sudden, everything happening at that current point in my life was bookmarked in my memory forever....because this album had now become the soundtrack to it all. There wasn't even anything particularly crazy going on in my life then....it's just remember-able because of this album.

    It was a powerful realization, or effect, it had on me. I'll always be able to look back and remember exactly what I was doing when I first started listening to this album, that entire month.

    This is their magnum opus for me.

    I'll echo the same sentiments. MO has always been a band I've enjoyed, and METN definitely has some all time classics, but this is their first album that I love through and through.

    same here, I found myself coming back to this album a ton this year. I slept on it for a while because MO isn't a band that I really keep on my radar even though I've always liked them. And then I was listening to it in an airport and almost cried to The Alien lol.

    This album will forever remind me of when I packed up my life in my truck and drove to my new home in SoCal and I love it for that

    I don't really like this. Thought it was great for a week though.

    It's a pretty perfect and consistent album from front to back. They really knocked it out of the park with this one.

    It's definitely their best. By far.

    I don’t return to this album as much as METN or even SM.

    I feel the same. It's weird because this album amazes me, I think it's incredible and can easily see why someone would call it their best, but I'm not always in the mood for it. Simple Math is still my favorite I think.

    I hate spoilers. Supporter

    The two albums I return to most from these guys are Black Mile and COPE.

    So there’s that.

    Black Mile is their best. Cope is their worst.
