I mean yeah on the surface it's a decent song musically speaking, but devvvine really nails it with the "midlife crisis rock" label. Win Butler has sounded desperately try hard since Reflektor, and Everything Now was straight cringe and utterly, lyrically tone deaf. I'll admit this is a marginal improvement though but I wish they'd focus inward again.

priors: i dont have any strong emotional attachment to their earlier work, so i have no expectations

i know they said it's a message for the youths but it is not speaking their language and it is not clear what the message is

unashamed and trash (Unctious), Friday, 6 November 2020 16:22 (three years ago) link
