I'm with Brad. He's written songs instead of atmospheres without sacrificing the poignancy of those atmospheres.

way more hooks on the previous two. i couldn't really get into this one

find this pleasant sounding but i have pretty much the opposite reaction to alfred. i.e. it's not quite songy enough but there's some nice atmospheres

I'm with marcos and jim here. Songs feel more like sketches on this new one.

I'm with Alfred. Atmospheres feel like songs, songs smell like farts.

i found most of those hooks to be p tepid at best & annoyingly condensed at worst (like, that crj song) so i prefer his songwriting stretched out as it is on the new one. still not totally converted yet but

i just love the production throughout... i think it's such a warm palette and fits his songwriting better than arrangements w more structure

also this is otm
yeah i think it earns its digressiony qualities bc the swirls of melody and structure that appear and disappear are, individually, pretty much always commanding and interesting. (imo, again, i found his previous two solo records, despite having more strictly bound "songs," far less imaginative.) it's a pretty filmic record, tracks run into each other like a cut or dissolve between frames. he's less hemmed in rhythmically here too
