Danny Boy
Rock n' Roll Doggie FOB
I often wonder how much of the footage people shoot on their phones even gets watched.
Ridiculous review. Spent more time on the band themselves and their history than the album.
the band, not just this album, got absolutely savaged by Pitchfork in their review.
My conclusive opinion on this album is it's fantastic. It's a form record - consistent, energetic and with some genuine tunes.
All the Rage Back Home is a classic single; Anywhere and Ancient Ways are top rock songs; My Desire, Same Town, New Story and Tidal Wave all lock into a wonderful groove. The rest of the songs are solid and enjoyable enough to carry the album through to conclusion.
A band reinvigorated. Four stars.
Yeah just spectacular bullshit. Why commission a review to someone who so clearly has an axe to grind?
No one seems to care about the long game anymore. The chase for page hits only incentivizes writers and the like to worry about today.Not all web hits are good. Pitchfork is practically begging for a challenger to usurp them at this point; the more of these bullshit reviews they post, the easier they make it for that to happen. I'm sure probably all of us here already have sites we favor over Pitchfork; I sure as hell do.

I've held out listening until tomorrow. Looking forward to this.
