    I'll write you into all of my songs Supporter

    Did not really enjoy this much at all. I get that he was trying to make the most complex album for people to sing along to, but I don't think he hits the mark as well as he hoped. Not a fan of his vocal styling as well.

    Granted, Wood is great and Gwan is absolutely incredible.

    my first impression of this consists of sheer awe. granted, I'm only a handful of tracks in, but is this going to be one of the most underrated albums of the year?

    Solid album, a bit long and there isn't a vast amount of diversity, but the lane he stays in is a good one

    I can always be better, so I'll always try. Supporter

    This album's great! It feels like he went in as many strange directions as he could and then made a beautiful patchwork piece.

    Exactly. It's not the most cohesive album, and it's long, but it goes to such wonderful, satisfying places.

    approx. 3rd coolest Steve on here Supporter

    I'm not a fan of his vocal performance. The album is great from a songwriting and composition perspective.

    Aw, I really like the vocals on here.

    This is actually a perfect record for the fall. Parts of it make me deeply and inexplicably nostalgic.

    I like the vocals. It reminds me of music I used to listen to... For some strange reason, Jim's vocals from JEW's Clarity come to mind with lots more experimentation
