I find the album a bit of a slog unfortunately

Saw them when they stopped in Boston last week -- they played for a solid 2 and half hours. The highlight was definitely when Ted did a mini-set of solo stuff (but that might just have been because the sound person was so bad that all I could hear during the full band numbers was the bass and the floor tom). And I have to agree that his stage banter still slays.

The new album has really been growing on me. Not quite Hearts of Oak level greatness, but definitely the equal of Shake the Sheets or Brutalist Bricks.

Yeah, I've been enjoying the new album a lot too. William Weld In The 21st Century is just devastating.

Thinking of seeing him next month for the first time.
