    Fight the long defeat.

    I mean, Death Cab is in the name; maybe they think they're in the clear on this joke.

    A few of us cracked the key to time travel. And we are using it in the most mundane way imaginable.

    Pep Talk is a really good song.

    Not sure I’m sold on Envy the Birds.

    First impression is pretty decent but not really impressive like Asphalt was for me

    Are you kidding? Envy the Birds sounds like it was stripped right out of Narrow Stairs. So good

    Damn, "El Dorado" and "Ingenue" are some underrated deep cuts!

    I really like How Heavenly a State. The opening track and the Flavor of Metal haven’t quite poked through for me yet and sound kinda generic/pleasant but everything else I really like. I am curious how folks who love the more epic Possess/Tourist side of DCFC will feel about these tighter, less sprawling songs.

    The title track(s) are a highlight

    It takes strength to be gentle and kind Supporter

    El dorado and the whole second half of kintsugi is underrated because it’s not good

    The intro to How Heavenly a State is the intro to Running with the Devil. Lol.

    The harsh transition from How Heavenly a State into Trap Door’s 80’s coming-of-age prom scene opening is so perfect.
