The overt production of its predecessor has been scaled back in favour of encapsulating a sense of liveness across the course of the record. It’s a bold move. One that in lesser hands might have felt like a regression, but here it allows focus to fall on Tiger’s Jaw trademark emotionally affecting lyricism.

Tigers Jaw make albums that are good, sometimes very good, but not quite great.

The band’s latest effort all-but removes the punch that once established them, instead favouring subtle guitar-led melodies and elevating Ben and Brianna’s vocal performances.

Not me having a nervous breakdown at 2 AM and listening to this album. It did comfort me. There's a nice feel to this album which I usually do get from Indie rock. I don't mean to compare but I prefer the female vocals overall. I thought that it fit better to the sound that they have.
