Eh, going off the reactions I think a better comparison might be with something like Daddy's Home or Star-Crossed, just kind of a dud album no one'll really get that worked up over.
This is kinda what I feared. The songs during the rollout weren't bad, but they didn't really grab me like her previous stuff did. Still, alma mater loyalty goes a long way so I'm at the very least obligated to give it a listen.

It's a bummer that it's the fifth show this year I can't go to, but I'm happy that it's seemingly not acrimonious, and I wish him all the best.
The power of Boris is so immense that they can put an album on Sacred Bones and not have the logo and track listing on the cover. Can't wait for Friday.
Some Rap Songs came out at a really low point in my life and acted as kind of an anchor for me, so I can't pretend to not be biased when it comes to Earl's stuff. However I've had some friends who think his music's boring too so it's really to each their own.
Got an email the other day saying that The Armed concert I was supposed to go to next week was moved to March. I may have played myself hard with my "Only get tickets for shows in 2022" rule.
If anyone here's still brave/foolish enough to go to the MSG show, I'll be there. Although if you meet up with me, you also waive your right to personally blame me if you get Omicron-d.
I like the song enough even if it left me a little wanting, wondering if it maybe fits in better with the context of the rest of the album. Definitely fits the vibe of "post-apocalyptic 50s pop" that I got from the teasers and getting David Lynch to do a bonus 7'' feels like the most "of course" thing FJM could do with it.
