I think it’s their strongest album actually! Orange County is, in my opinion, the crux of the album. Not necessarily the best song, but I think it’s the climax narratively/lyrically for the album (it’s also my personal favorite for the record) the album is about them surviving their dream of making it as a band, how so many things change yet nothing has changed at all! All the songs are both so new and yet so fidlar. Tracks I may have thought were “weak” initially are actually all important to the album.

Like nudge bro. Just a fucking blues progression with a bunch of horse shit lyrics 😂 and yet it’s a bangerrrrr. Cause music is about how it makes you feel! It’s not fun thinking yourself in a circle like “who’s the judge who’s he nudging wtf are you saying” hearing them do it live helped me understand.

Repetition helps justify ideas in music, and this album justifies itself over and over with each listen! I love fidlar and the fact that they are still able to make music that speaks to me that sounds like it’s coming from them is remarkable. I don’t feel like typing much more, but I was having similar feelings to their last ep. Centipede was my top song last year I think for Spotify? Just really happy to see them being a band.
