Another great release from this trio that builds on their previous albums. Some more great music for when you have the feels or need to go to sleep. The best stuff is FCC free!

1. (1:58) Company **** – Long and lonesome synth with lyrics and licks to match. A good song for people who watch too much TV alone.
2. (3:38) Aaron ***** – An uplifting, bright, and medium tempo song about transitioning. The pre-choral repetition hits in all the right places. The outro exhumes love.
3. (3:24) Black Friday *** – This is a song about how hard it is to let go of someone and being ok with that. Similar to how I feel going to the mall on Black Friday.
4. (2:53) Worthy *** – Both funny and uplifting, Worthy describes how someone special can help you feel better about yourself while also making you question your worthiness for someone so special.
5. (4:10) Killer *** – Gloomy and filled with guitar picking. And vengeance. FCC at 0:50 (ass).
6. (1:41) Where We Live ** – Spoken piece accompanied by waves and guitar picking. FCC at 0:27 (asses).
7. (3:38) Bullshit ** – Slow and shady shoegaze. FCC’s throughout.
8. (2:15) Sneakers ** – Being sad about the past. FCC at 0:19 (shit).
9. (2:27) Urban Drip *** – Quick and driving drum beat with acoustics and reverb. FCC at 0:44 (indecency).
10. (2:26) Stick N Poke *** – Quick lyrics with moderate pace that cover getting shitty tattoos when feeling shitty. FCC’s throughout (shitty).
11. (2:28) The City *** – A song about a city that would be perfect for a train ride.
12. (4:25) In Town **** – Ending the album with what they know best. Somber but bright.
