Long drives and car rides to Savannah. It's kind of far when you're tired and broke. But I woke and put my best clothes and my best shoes. I just want to impress you but that doesn't always work. I'm such a jerk and when it happens I just go home. Because I'm not ready to be a dad yet. So I'll breathe fire and burn down the bridges that separate my friends and bring them back together again. Oh! Your mom, your daddy, you're boss. Because I've placed my fate in your heart but you seem to be much older now. Hopefully I can. (I've spent most of my time pretending I'm grown just barely scraping by on my own. I still call my parents house my home. I might have the courage to take you to bed but I'm not ready to be the man you'll not fuck till I'm dead) but I'll fail again. Who the fuck am I kidding?
Certainly a controversial direction for the band, but this album ultimately rests as my favorite from TTNG. The technical mastery of their previous albums is still present here along with some very thought provoking and philosophical lyrics. I may not always agree with the lyrical messaging, but this is an album which rewards careful listening. Syobnaf

Julien Baker is an acquired taste - assuming of course you’ve acquired great taste in singer songwriters… beautiful, devastating, honest, insightful… I’ve not heard a single song of hers that hasn’t left me in absolute awe. crisbroadhurst
