    Setting Sun and Waiting for Stevie are my most hyped based off of that.

    I'm glad that Running is compared to the worst songs they've released. Very glad.

    I'm sorry this makes no sense how is in hiding like parting ways and how is force of nature like sleeping by myself. MFC like hail hail and life wasted?
    I've been lucky enough to hear this album and some of this is way off.

    I think his point is that he hears or feels elements of the listed songs in the corresponding DM tracks. It’s a very subjective thing and hey, if he hears it, that’s his reality.

    also….didn’t you say you couldn’t really focus on the record much with Ed being right there and the sort of party-like atmosphere that was the London event?

    Multiple reviews have compared WFS (or elements thereof) to SOLAT and Breath. 

    I think you’re taking this all too literally.

    He might be talking about sound, lyrical content and theme, arrangement. More stuff than just the music.

    Guessing he's saying there is parts to the new songs that remind him of a mix of the other songs?  I think it's good that you see things differently to keep this all in perspective for us who haven't heard it.  I have no expectations (I like Dark Matter and Running well enough though I don't get the Dark Matter song comparisons he sees so taking it all with a grain of salt).  Some of these reviews are really hyping it up, probably because they're getting paid to?

    No, analogs is the right word.
