    Here's a question:

    When they released ADU, they released as singles almost half the album before it's release.  While I love hearing anything as soon as I can, what does everyone else think?  Its a 6 of one, half-dozen of another.  You get to hear stuff early, but then the album itself doesn't feel as "new" when it comes out.  But the alternative is you don't hear anything til October.  Frankly. I'm in a musical rut of sorts right now, and would love to hear anything from them.

    What does everyone else think?
    It kind of gets on my nerves when bands do this when the album is done and they release 5 or 6 singles before the album drops. I understand it may have something to do with streaming numbers or whatever but it does take away from some of the magic of listening to a new album for the first time. If it'd done release the whole thing. 
    I hold off in these cases until the full LP is released. There’s intentionality to a song list on an LP and bouncing around various tracks that are released ahead of time takes something away from the artists complete vision for their work I think.

    JESUS.....what a fucking song. Just like the new MMJ out this week, I am getting 80's vibes to it. I guess it's the back up singers maybe. Lil Simple Minds or something? 

    LOVE. IT.

    They have breezy guitar driven Americana down to a science.
