accurate post. i did love S/T a LOT when it came out, but it's faded for me a bit over time.

this is also - easily - the best this band has sounded since Riot Act...to me, anyway.

Jesus Christ I swear to god I had the same thought but I figured no one would get it.

Oh no, it's there! I think they could have put a louder horn section on this and really have gone all in.

Honestly, of all their albums, Riot Act is the one that Gigaton feels most like "a logical extension" of. This could easily have been the album that followed Riot Act and it would make total sense to me.

I didn’t catch that

It’s been a long wait, both in years, and these past couple of hours. But now I will listen to it. Left my new headphones at work, but still got decent Bose ones at home.

I've listened through the whole album once and Quick Escape 5 times...that song is so damn good. I'm borderline shocked

this feels like riot act, yield, and lightning bolt were blended together in an open field on a warm august afternoon
