Easily one of my favorite tracks on the album next to the title track and Curveball.

it’s been a crazy good year for Australian music it’s my third year as an Australian Music Prize judge so I’ve been listening to A LOT of different stuff absolutely loving these: floodlights - underneath - grandiose yet intimate indie rock, gorgeous record MUDRAT - social cohesion - punk meets hip-hop for a stunning fusion of protest songs. incredible suzi - patchwork - emo/pop-punk sang in a bright Australian accent. equally devastating and bright ninajirachi - I love my computer - not usually an EDM person but Nina really pulled me in with the stories and production of this record dust - sky is falling - probably my favourite Australian band atm. really strong post-punk, the melodies really grow on you too ocean grove - ODDWORLD - released last year but it’s fucking unreal how much I love this album. Nu-metal done to perfection thornhill - bodies - thornhill really levelled up with this album, really awesome alt-metal akin to Deftones chasing ghosts - therapy - everything about this band makes me happy. the way Jimmy sings, the huge melodies, the First Nations stories over punk rock riffs

Yeah I think I can safely say Cigarettes and Saints is their best song. Might would've said it before, definitely saying it now.

SC, yes, probably. Hum is their best record to date on some days, TGG on others.

You in January is a song that means a lot to both me and my long-distance boyfriend and this version has me absolutely fucked up. Dear god. Didn't think I could love this song any more than I do. Also, 2015 me thought ...Brave was one of the weaker songs on the record. 2015 me didn't know shit.

People in here said they hoped they cut the Jason Aalon Butler feature on Stained Glass Ceilings. Lol. Lmao even.

It's one of the most powerful songs they've ever written but it truly got cut off at the knees. It was arguably their finest moment at one point in their career and I'm so happy they were able to do it justice.

Asked about GSTB on vinyl and there's 10-year anniversary plans in the works, you're welcome Chorus

I think they missed a trick with the 'saviours' motif (even if it mutates and shows up in other songs like I Wanted So Badly to Be Brave as lyrical framing) but the album works very well narratively even if they don't do the 'closer features a reprise of at least one song on the record' bit. Title track has to be there because of its ties to other songs on the record, it's a beautiful postscript kinda song.
