Man... I was REALLY feeling this song and then the chorus hits and it's... not good. The verses bang, but that chorus is not my thing at all
The song is decent. I really like the instrumentals, but just like the last one, I don't like the repetition in the verses.
Yeah I didn't mind the repetition on "Roman Candles" but it's more noticeable that they do it here, too. Only thing really holding this one back for me. Super cool singles, though. Record should be interesting
Like the noisy instrumental more on the first single, would rather have a whole album of that than every song using repetition but hopefully there’s variety and these songs both pretty different from eachother, hype level is medium because this could end up being their best in a while but I’m worried it’s gonna sound a bit bland again
I also listened when basically asleep, listen two I love the verses, bridge, the solo if you wanna call it that, chorus would of been saved if they brought some of that noise from Roman Candles, not even anything crazy, just feels thin instrumentally like no buildup/payoff and not good chorus lyrics
Idk, those guitar tones are pretty new for them lol. Reminds me of how I felt when I heard "Japanese Trees" by Modest Mouse for the first time
I think I’m just gonna listen to this track once and then wait for the full album to drop so I can listen in full with total context. I have a good feeling about this album. I take the criticisms here with a grain of salt. There always seems to be weird reactions in the Death Cab thread when new material releases, it’s like 50% of the people in this thread only like pre-Narrow Stairs and come in here just to vocalize their disappointment.
Pretty good song. Echoing others in here that the chorus can get repetitive by the end, but I actually like the melody so it doesn't bother me much.
