Very Springsteen, liking it a lot after a few spins.
Would like a version without all the voice snippets though haha

There’s an abridged version iTunes and YouTube that gets rid of the talking before each song. Instead it’s just the songs
Originally posted by ap5:Pretty solid album on the first spin. Interesting companion to Imploding the Mirage which I thought was their best album in a long time. This new one has some Springsteen / REM vibes for sure.
Originally posted by LikeASong:I have mixed feelings about the album. I like that it's different musically and I like the Springsteen(ish) vibe to some of the songs, but on the other hand the talking inbetween songs was unnecessary and put me off, and also Brandon's vocals were under-rehearsed, they feel like vocal demos or first takes (much like my complaint about SOE's vocals).
Originally posted by podiumboy:As somebody from a small town, I find the sound bites from the townspeople to be a little bit insulting. Like "look at these small town white trash people, they're so stupid that they're happy with their lives despite the fact that they are inferior to us evolved city folk". A lot of people who come from a small town and make something of themselves feel this constant need to assert how much better they believe themselves to be than where they came from, and Brandon is no different.
