Finally heard this. It’s good fun but doesn’t feel like anything new.

I need to listen to this on headphones, because my biggest gripe with every album after The Finer Things is how the production absolutely strangles their guitars. Hard to get a grasp on if that has happened again when you’re driving and not paying full attention.

Definitely some catchy songs on this like Silver Cloud, Light Blue, Too Late To Say, and Hell Of It though.

 

soooo what the hell happened to this re-recording of elevated and/or the finer things that they teased like a year ago?

 

Sounds sick but it's probably a single mix of all the backing tracks they use when they play live?

 

i don’t think it sounds like that at all, sounds like a full on newly recorded, mixed and mastered song

 

Still super bummed they didn't do a full tour for The Finer Things anniversary :/ that album was the soundtrack to my freshman year of college

 

Yeah they botched the anniversary for the album that deserved it most

 

i think the production has aged really poorly on that album particularly, a new version bringing it up to par with the rest would be so cool

 

pretty good
