*best

Power of Right - kinda meh for me on the first listen. It's *really* slick and a bit generic to my ears.

I'd say picture with elton and Fallout Today are my least favorite - to be honest.

Fallout Today is a bit forgettable and Picture - while lovely - is just fine.

The haves at least makes me feel something? Good or bad.

Not quite thru a first listen but yep sure seems to be the case.

Though im sure Fallout and Picture will grow on me with better quality and more listens....

I wish you sycophants would feel this excited about Painted Shield’s new album.

Get out. Are you telling me there are songs in the album that you like even less than The Haves??

Mrs Mills is goddamn lovely.

Hey, we can be excited about both! Wish you idiots would have loved mason jennings years ago like me!

Funny, I hadn't really checked this out and Spotify randomly threw one of their songs at me the other day. I ended up checking out the last album and really liked it a lot more than I expected I would.

First impressions.

great: brother the cloud, good and evil, on my way

good: power of right, rose of jericho, the dark, invincible, mrs mills,

ok: long way, try

just meh: the haves, fallout today, picture

Easily my favorite of the 3 "cameo" songs.

Fallout Today is great. Easily the best of the "mellow" songs.

On my way is cool.

He basically just sings lyrics from across the album, with Eds father in the back repeating on my way.....

Pretty great

This seems about right.

For me better within the context of the record is The Haves, worse was Long way. Good and Evil is really good

The Dark is pretty good. Fun and upbeat.

I wasn't sure about Good and Evil until the chorus hit. Good banger.

Still not loving that really fuzzy, compressed guitar tone that's on a couple of the "heavy" songs.

Rose of Jericho is my favourite so far out of the "rock" songs.

Minimal production compared to the others, which I prefer.

Mrs. Mills might be the most off-brand thing I've ever heard from Eddie Vedder.
