    Yeah that was a good one. I’d rather a weird phrase for album title than “i am east to find” or “trouble will find me” personally.

    I completely did not pick up on the fact that that was actually the title of the album.....

    the most the national thing about this is leaving "the" out of the album title

    I've always been fond of the artwork for Boxer with the band on stage in the big room, and The Virginia EP with the plane wing. Also, SWB cover is great with the barn at night and band visible in the lit up window.

    TWFM was my first album of theirs, so that artwork has a special place in my heart

    An inconsequential shift as the continents drift.

    hard not to view the Boxer cover as iconic, I mean it's one of my favourite albums of all time

    Is three months really that long these days, especially when one of them is February?

    all of this is temporary Supporter

    With how much of essentially a life event Boxer was for me (what a flawless album), I gotta keep trying out these new releases. Haven’t disliked anything since then… but nothing’s really clicked, either. Maybe THIS one? Love the album title.

    I’m interested to see if the title has to do with an overall lyrical theme since it’s so unusual. The art…I’ll live with
