Everyone go check it out. Already on my second listen. Early favorites are "Loving", "Everything Has Changed", and "To My Dearest Wife."

A lot of mentions of Ben's wife and daughter - pretty cool.

Will check it out tonight. Hope it sounds more like their first few albums.

Listening now because some friends are big fans. Pretty decent album. Seems better than what I recall of past efforts.

Liking it so far. Big fan of the band. Heard quite a bit at the family picnic.

Will admit, thought it disappointing that their last tour was playing this start to finish before it was even released. Nothing else. Even as a big fan I’d be annoyed if I had been at one of those shows. You don’t play a single album unless it’s a classic, yet alone play an unreleased album.

Liking this a lot. "Back to the Night" giving me the willies, which is usually the sign of a great tune.

I agree with this but they did have limited time due to being the opening act. Their show in Red Rocks where they "co-headlined" was a more diverse set

I just realized that's Michael Shannon's voice on "Back to the Night." Killer.

Explains the creepiness of the song. I dig it.

I think that makes it even worse, honestly. If they did it as 10 songs in the middle of a full set I dislike it. As their only 10, it’s terrible. Especially for a band that people are so connected to the songs. Can’t play 100% unreleased content.

I had pretty much given up on them as well. This very well could be my favorite album of the year

Good to hear. One of their more recent albums I've heard was absolute dogshit.

That had to have been "All a Man Should Do."

I only like 2-3 songs off that one tops.

Still love To My Dearest Wife.

Bottom of the Sea is growing on me. It sort of gives me a countryish War on Drugs vibe. I'm also liking Loving and Always Been You a lot.
