I'm a huge Andrew Bird fan, and while I've only given the new album a cursory listen, I can't say I was thrilled with it. I shouldn't even say anything yet having only listened once, but my initial impression was that it's no Armchair Apocrypha, Noble Beast, Break It Yourself, or Pulaski At Night. That run of albums is tough to beat, in my opinion. Will give it more time though—maybe it just needs to sink in or grow on me more?
Honestly I didn't love the album on the first (and so far only) listen either. I still love the two singles that were releases before though, and maybe I created too much expectations from that.
Wow, what an issue! 🤩 Every single thing you recommended in this one resonated with me. From "Eye In The Sky" cover to these retro gif collages. Nice work 👏
P.S. I've never heard about Andrew Bird and I'm really happy that you introduced me to his music. "Atomized" left me speechless

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Stygi! Atomized is definitely one of the album's highlights. The opener Underlands is pretty great too!
That Eye In The Sky cover with Beck … fantastic! I love me some Alan Parsons Project. 😂
So much fun, right???
Welcome back! Love me some Andrew Bird! Excited to check out that Son Lux, too
Can't wait to listen to Andrew's whole album!
