I’m pretty sure that Convo is what reminded @opsopcopolis that UM is out today lol
When is this coming out?
What?
Listening now on YT.
I fux with fenced in
Proud of y’all
I’m actually excited to catch escape goat live.
It’s alright. They should’ve left half the singles off the album and maybe cut one other song. Jake is MVP of the album.
Listened to all the tracks that weren’t released early just now. I enjoyed it. Some nice outros and Jake guitar work. Probably a few songs too long and vocal heavy for better or worse. Wouldn’t say overall it’s always the type of UM that reeled me in, but for what they were going for it’s a solid record imo.
I’m still up and we are 10.minutes away so I may give this a quick scan before hitting the pillow.
Escape Goat is awesome
Fenced In is the lyrical from 2014 GR All in Time.
It’s also stemmed from 2012 Scamp 2x2
Very quick scanned first listen, skipping the already released material, was better than I expected. Had more of a SIN/Mantis feel than recent releases. I will give it more of a listen tomorrow but I’m certainly less jaded than I was 20 minutes ago…
Pure Saturation is from that Fir they did that first Covid “show” from Jake’s studio. Neat
Guitar work in Ordinary Times is great. Love that sloppy drunk slide riff. And the solo/outro stuff is excellent. If only it wasnt so sadboi.
All in all, way too dad rock of a vibe for my tastes. But will be jacked to catch Small Strides and Escape Goat live for the first time.
I’ve been trying to classify it. But to me its not really dad rock. More of like “songs you hear at aeropostale”
Regardless if I like the album or not I am definitely going to have a lunch beer while listening to Work Sauce tomorrow.
Alternative Dad Rock?
I guess? Idk
Regardless, the balls have been removed.
Even INU/IY had more balls than this.
