I honestly can't get the first line of Chatroom out of my head. I think the verses are even catchier than the choruses on a lot of this album!
Man people on Reddit kind of hate this, wow. I just went back and listened to Guppy and...I like this way more? Am I crazy?
Definitely surprising to me, it feels like a natural progression from Guppy to be honest. I’m happy they didn’t fully pivot to 80’s pop/synthpop like I thought they might.
Your life will improve if you don't read musical opinions on Reddit haha. Part of why I like this site so much is the vast majority of users enjoy growing with their favorite bands.
Okay, this is incredible. Guppy is one of my favorites of the last couple years, it's such an easy breezy listen and it's one of my go-to driving records. This one, however, shows such huge growth over Guppy, I almost can't believe it. The back half is especially stunning. Hurt Me fucks me up, and Chatroom and Hard To Believe have some of my favorite CB choruses. I loved Eva's vocals on Guppy, but I do really like the more refined sound she's going for vocally on this album (ex. Hurt Me). This is going to be something I'll be listening to all summer and beyond. So proud of this band.
can anyone clue me in on what the rilo kiley reference is on blown to bits? been listening to this all weekend. i knew this band was gonna be special the first time i heard ruby. what a group.
