I mean, hey, good enough reasoning for me:
On Monday 9 August 2021, the band announced that they would henceforth be known as Sea Power due to “a rise in a certain kind of nationalism in this world – an isolationist, antagonistic nationalism that (they) don’t want to run any risk of being confused with.”

New single sounds very promising. I mean, yeah, nothing radically new in their sound but it's still a sound I dig.

Excited to see where they go from here.

Anyone particularly feeling the album?

I'll sit down and give it a listen this evening. Press seems positive.

This new one has a couple of highlights, but it feels a bit lackadaisical in general.

Funny, I felt that way about the last couple — they'd have a formidable track or two, and the rest never quite gelled. This latest one felt much more polished and cohesive, even if it's not their most adventurous.

I'm going to agree with Rizzx's assessment - there are a couple of stand out tracks that come early ("Transmitter", "Two Fingers"), a couple of other solid songs and the rest is nice sub-shoegaze that moves too slowly for what I want. A good listen but nothing that's going to make me return. The truth is, I haven't played the last one since it came out, either. I think this is where I get off the bus.

It's been growing on me this album, it's very textural and melodic and with Two Fingers it has a song that could be a peace anthem for these times.
