Wild Pink - Dulling The Horns (October 4, 2024) • Page 5

Been listening to this all weekend

 

Need a Hangover Game / Eating the Egg Whole medley with like 15 ppl on stage at once to close out every date of the MJ/Wild Pink tour

 

yes

 

I've listened to this 2 more times I think I'm understanding my initial reaction more. The last 3 songs on it are my least favorite and Rung Cold is my least favorite of all of the songs. So when I finish the album my view of it is more negative than it should be because I just heard my least favorite song. I really like a lot of the songs on here and the album is growing on me.

 

After 2 listens - I'm thinking album of the year

 

rung cold your least favorite???? noo

 

ILYSM didn’t have much lasting value for me, unfortunately. But really enjoying this one.

 

THERE MUST BE A LONG-ASS GERMAN WORD

FOR WHEN YOU'VE DESTROYED SOMETHIN GOOD

 

Cloud Or Mountain might be one of the coolest Wild Pink songs

 

He’s one of the absolute best writers doing it at the moment

Belly down in the mud at dawn
Every day ring your hands raw
Drudge through it all somehow
You look dead when you sleep now
Stability changed your perspective
You’re meaner now, no longer introspective
But I still got a picture of you in an O’s hat
On your birthday on the Chesapeake Bay

There’s a break in your heart
And if you can’t get along with it
You gotta just get on with it

 

This is VERY good.

 

I think this might be their best. Which is saying something. It pairs really well with A Billion Little Lights. Even though Yolk in the Fur could actually be my favorite. We’re ranking…my initial thoughts are

1. Dulling the Horns
2. Yolk in the Fur
3. A Billion Little Lights
4. ILYSM
5. Wild Pink

 

it's crazy how many of their best songs are just chillin on EPs or one-off singles. I'm obsessed with Leferever atm

 

Top 5 song

 

I think I really love this.

 

do you
still
believe that?

 

this my favorite album of 2024 and the margin is growing every day

 

I totally agree

I went for a walk after work today with my headphones on - it was a gorgeous, autumnal British day and when that slide solo at the end of St.Catherine St kicked in I couldn't help but crack a huge smile

Excited to see them live next week

 

Did this go out in your newsletter or on Chorus and I missed it? Otherwise looking forward to whenever life gives you the time to release it!

 

finally ordered the same last week!

 

I've had Disintegrate on repeat this week, such a good song.

 

That sax

 

Dragged my feet on listening to this one but loving it!

Reminds me of A Billion Little Lights (second favourite album of that year) in the way that it is locked into a niche sound for around 40 minutes and every song hits, such a fun and easy listen.

ILSYM didn't really work for me, I LOVED about half that record (the first few tracks, the last few tracks) but the group of slow quiet songs in the middle always grinded a listen to a halt.

I can feel a whole discography binge coming on regardless haha
