This is kind of one of the best albums of the decade.

four songs into the new album and it’s already hands down more interesting and better than the last one.

ooh, didn't know a new album came out. Yeah that song is good. I also like Sunblind, so far.

I’ve listened to this album about five times since Tuesday. It’s much better than Crack-Up imo.

I like the new album so far but upon initial listening I don't think it's better than Crack Up, which might be my favorite album they've made, even though the first one is probably more personal and special to me. Not every album that is difficult and cumbersome on the first couple listens is a masterpiece in disguise, but Crack Up really turned out to be that for me, a complex and rich album that really rewarded the time I invested in trying to wrap my brain around what it was doing. I'll certainly keep listening to this though. "Sunblind" is great.

I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would. The last one wasn’t that great and I’ve never been a huge fan. About twenty minutes at a time is usually enough. Good album this.

This album is absolutely beautiful. More direct and brighter than the great Crack-Up but maybe just as good. Robin once again proves he is one of the best songwriters alive today. Four successes in a row.

For those who like the new album, what do you think about the song 'Featherwieghts'? It was written by someone my son knows in a much smaller band called Sleep Gonzalez. They actually trashed the Fleet Foxes version a little in an Instagram story. They tend to do that, trash bands in stories that disappear after 24 hours. Kind of douche-y but seems to be their thing.
Think I’m going to try being kind to everyone a chance.

Huh? Implying it's a cover/Fleet Foxes stole the song? I dont think that's right.
