Sorry for now is easily the best song, but even then, that song had more potential to branch off into this dancy-80s funky beat, they really could have latched onto that that musical break that they only play initially and then for the last 5 secs of the song.
Sharp edges sounds like Mumford and sons - in a bad way. All the songs are boring and bland, and the production although top notch in its ways, provides for a boring experience. If they tried a little more raw take, it could have slightly saved the album from the abyss of forgettable.
From initial listen,
arguably their worst effort (living things sucked too)
Lyrics were F. They always have had catchy corny lyrics but this was highlighted as terrible.
Instrumentation- B. They had interesting layers, beats, texture and tones as per usual and expected at this point.
Structure- F-. Straight ABYSMAL and overly repetitive.
2/10.
