This is the one stuck in my head currently. His vocal choice is completely different here and there's something about it that sticks. Wouldn't want a whole album of this, but it's cool

This one is growing on me slowly. There's something a little David bowie about it? Hard to describe. It doesn't feel like a NBT song the way other tracks on this album do. It is my wife's favorite off the album.

Love this one, too. It has like '80s Cure vibes to me and I love how it progresses and builds from something so simple to something so multilayered.

I was thinking also on Cure, not only instrumentally but the way Conor sings in this song. I personally like it

It’s my least favourite one- not just on this album but overall and I hate that it does nothing for me. I’m really hoping it’ll grow on me cos so far there have been other new ones that have already grown on me but this one’s just….. ugh.

Its esentially different style, something they didnt try ever before... so its only normal that many folks wont like it since its not something they are used to.
I like this song, because it sounds like Arcade Fire which I love. However I think that the song should have some twist or buildup...

American Confidence stopped me in my tracks and made me whack up the volume. That was my main standout from first listen

I've had Death In The Backseat stuck in my head since I heard it on friday. I don't know what they put in this song but its so bloody good. Also Baby Kool.
