I really dig it. I like the contrast between the verse and chorus. It reminds me a little of I'm designer.

I kinda love it. Getting some Era Vulgaris vibes from the verses. The well overdue return of their robot rock side. Chorus is a grower.

I also like Mark Ronson, but don't want him anywhere near Qotsa ever again. This sounds so much better.

It gave me a feeling that was never hit with Villains. One listen and it sounded fine. I’ll go home and crank it up and see how that goes. I’m excited for a new release.

yeah, i can see the Era Vulgaris connection, i kinda feel it with the guitars, they sound like that album, but there is more room maybe between instruments? Its a song it could have been from LC maybe too.

Yeah it feels like the same rehashed idea from the last two albums, and from the same artist.

Exactly.

I’ve got the song on now in my loft. I really like it. Getting some Era mixed with Rated R sounds and I’m perfectly happy with it.

Haha you hit the nail on the head. It's very derivative and lumps the last 3 album covers into boring territory. For a title referencing a font, that album title is pretty much gack.

Give me a cracked lightbulb any day of the week.

That lead song opening riff is very AC/DC, thinking Hell Ain't A Bad Place To Be.

As time goes on Era Vulgaris gets better and better.

In the back artwork you can clearly see all three titles. As if these three albums (LC, Villains and this one) form some sort of trilogy. The leather bad boy trilogy.

Hmm, I wonder who Medusa is meant to represent here. Can't quite put my finger on it.

It's like Hotline Miami in ancient Greece. I like it!
