It’s a nice and airy piece but as a single I wish it had a little more impact.

The concept of a preluxe is an enticing way to promote an album release that unfortunately falls short as a product of its DNA. A rollout comprised of throwaways is a good way to give listeners a way to get a deal for the sound of an album without spoiling too much of the experience before the first listen. The problem comes with the fact that these tracks are plain and simple unfinished. JID is still rapping up a storm, his delivery on the opener Behold really comes through in the end with and ... read more

It’s a fun shit post. There’s probably some sort out commentary here but I don’t think it’s meant to be taken too seriously.

I was listening to this non stop when it first dropped and I still keep a lot of songs in rotation. I saw Zel do a lot of these songs live and it made me appreciate the bangers even more.

Better than the last one. No Strings is the type of song I want from the duo lyrically. They retain their comedy, but they are able to write more genuinely based on their own experiences. The other tracks are better just because they flow better; still don’t care for them too much.

Where’s the punk?

The breakdown is the only thing that holds this song back. Isaac’s squeaky, high-pitched vocals just sound awkward and is the one area that the album version does better. All the other deliveries are great and the rougher instrumentation is phenomenal. The scratchier guitars and jumpy sax are so much more poignant and the song groves so much harder.

The title really speaks for the sound of the song. The rugged first third of the song drags like a violent storm; leading into the calm and resolute last two thirds of the track. I’m glad more electric elements are returning too. I loved the folk elements of The Beggar a lot, but this really feels like a return to that 2010’s sound while still bringing in the more reserved aspects of the last two albums.

The performances are the only notable improvement on this ep compared to their last album. The rap rock instrumentals become a chore to listen to as songs drag along. The duo focus most of their bars on comedy, which isn’t an inherently bad idea. Other duos like Joey Valence and Brae and EARTHGANG operate in a similar field, but Paris Texas falls flat compared to both. This is largely due to the lack of cohesion in their songs. Bars start to blend together due to the murky production and ... read more

Really whatever project. Some how even more of a snoozer than FATD, though there are still some okay tracks.

Not as punchy as their previous stuff

As a native Kansan, I’m forced to like this album.

Really really good. Pete the goat fr.

Genuinely miserable. There are hints of what I’ve enjoyed in Uzi’s music in the past, but they’ve gone off the deep end. There’s nothing of real worth here.

This is the type of shit I wanted on My Story Got Stories it feels like Bruiser Wolf is developing his style in a dynamic and interesting way while keeping his punchy writing. Zach Fox has a great verse too.

Fantastic. The energy that Geordie builds on these tracks is phenomenal and the lyrics are fantastic as always.the shorter tracks are where I hold most of my gripes. Given more time with the style, which Geordie seems like he is planning on doing, I think that he could improve on this style. I think that’s the major quality that made black midi so good; narrowing the scope on a specific style and exploring every aspect that was available.

Shit rocks so hard

“You have a bigger 🐓 than any 🫃 who’s ever lived and you can 💦 more than 1000 🐎” 🤨 still gonna be album of the year 🤷‍♂️

It’s nice to see funk go mainstream again. I don’t think Tommy is doing anything groundbreaking here but it’s pleasant and it works. I don’t know why there are Minecraft villager ad-libs on THOUGHT YOU WERE THE ONE

Solid indie rock but their sound is so much more realized on 3D Country.
