the live gig they just released is good, they are a tight band

I love all the hats in the crowd concealing male pattern baldness.

the album sounds good in headphones, I think it's a textural and slow-growing album that I'll keep giving a chance; my favourite KOL songs are the ballads at this point - Split Screen is an A

Split Screen is the only track that would come anywhere near a KOL top ten.

I have no idea how people hypothetically rank a band's songs like that, and I don't know, I already like more than ten KoL songs anyway so that ship has sailed; maybe a top 50 would be fun to do

The last two albuns are a slog fest.
Sundown was amazing, Mechanical bull was ok and I love Walls, but WYSIY and the new one are just... boring.

Remember when they wrote masterpieces? Hard to believe it's even the same band.

Knocked Up is probably my favorite KoL song.

That album still holds up. Except for "Charmer". It's a bad song, terrible choice for a single, and putting it at track 2 kills the momentum "Knocked Up" built as the opener. Not sure what they were thinking.
