This is one of the best songs in the album. But I still can't get over the production. It all sounds so hollow, without weight. I don't think Mark Ronson was a good choice. The songs are good though. Gonna sound way better live.
One of my friends said the same thing. I'm not one to focus on production too much. Sometimes people are super nitpicky on things my ears don't pick up. But he said it was a little too glossy, not dirty enough for this band. I can see that.
Agreed on the lifeless production. Ronson was indeed a bad choice. Still excited for the record regardless and these sounds like definitely sound even better live.
