Yeah he's nothing special. If he just went by Justin Vernon nobody would care.

It's like he took the production from 22 and dialed it back by half while applying it to the songwriting from the first two albums.

you mean there are website outside of RM?

I'm only 3/4 facetious here. I really don't read a lot of stuff from websites because of reasons, most of which revolve around terrible writing.

Latest batch haven’t hit me after two listens. It’s quite a catalog to reckon with.

Goddamn. This music just slowly seeps into your bones until you can't let it go. He's fucking brilliant.

This gets better every listen. It took me quite a few to actually begin to enjoy it. Now it is taking off bigly....

Is it better than the first 2 singles posted, because they were beyond terrible??

Is it more like the first album or is it autotuned??
