their best album since futures but maybe also their best since clarity. prob the most creative rock record i've heard this year. produced by justin meldal-johnsen aka the dude who recorded the paramore s/t. the two share a lot in overall lushness and dimension

It's definitely not better than 'Bleed American'' but I agree based on a couple of listens that it's their best since 'Futures'.

liking this for sure. seems like every song has a great coda.

The End Is Beautiful is classic JEW. works really well.
This is better than the new America Football, which I was looking forward to hearing. Sounds like another Owen record. Codas are nice.

this album is still so good and sometimes i think it's maybe their best? but every record they've put out since static prevails is good and interesting for a different reason
