Been listening to them all morning. I know I said it before, but those first two records really give me early Death Cab vibes.
Well damn, they were incredible tonight. The True Love songs were so good live. Also the opener Molly Parden was great too. I had never heard of her before but I instantly became a fan!
Very excited for Friday, have really been keeping my distance from these singles so the EP feels fresh
Meanwhile, I think they are all in my Spotify On Repeat playlist rn lol As the sun comes out and it gets warmer, these guys (along with Alex G) is pretty much all I listen to
Ruby’s a slapper. Whole EP is great, these guys are just hyper aware of their strengths and drive it right down the middle every time
Yea this EP is great. They’re so good at making a consistent sound while also introducing new elements to keep things interesting.
Happy to see them get some more 4k love, but I would really argue against "Life is Good" being their "ethos". I'd also argue, as good as the EP (and this album) is, that the new wrinkles they're talking about have been there for a while, at least definitely on Heavy Lifter.
Yep. Review is solid, glad they're getting the attention they deserve, but as nostalgia-fueled and optimistic as they can be (especially on True Love), they've been playing with deeper lyrical content (and more experimental instrumentation) since Heavy Lifter.
