They've never had any good album covers since Ultimate Alternative Wavers, but the last few have been especially bad.

Been on a wee BTS binge this weekend and now increasingly thinking this new song is prime time.

I've been listening to this record nonstop the past few weeks. Really love the lyrics, though I'm still scratching my head at the "Maltesian Riot" part of "On the Way".

I wish I liked this more. I keep trying but it doesn't take.

OK, I kept listening and my feeling is that this is the most poorly sequenced record I've heard in a long time. Switching sides A and B helps a little, but so many good songs are buried in the traditional 'album filler' slots

Hadn't really noticed this. But I can kinda write off the bad sequencing as part of the album's scruffy charm.

The front 3 and last 2 songs are sticking for me, whereas the middle of the album blends into one slightly plodding dirge.
Mildly disappointed with this so far. Love 'So', though, which sounds like a lost Keep It Like a Secret track.
