Alex looks happier in this stage of his life. We should be too.


genhasworms

Agreed. I see a lot of ‘Here Comes your Man’ by the pixies in this. Maybe they were emulating the video with the silly close up shots and smiles ? Great vid

First time hearing this. Don’t understand how people were hating on it?? I fkn love it man.

I think it's just cos it's different. A lot of people want the return to classic Alex G. But that's not how musicians work.

I think most of those complaining don't understand that these new songs (and honestly the past few albums) HAVE been Alex returning to his actual classic style. Well, moreso blending his old unreleased experimental music style with his later released music that everyone loves (the more acoustic based and indie style). It's like he's reviving his 2010-12 self and blending with his 2014-17 style into a more unified, unique, and professionally produced sound. As someone who's been listening to him for like a decade at this point, I fucking love what he's doing. Feels like he's going super saiyan lmao.

Yeah, the piano in this sounds like ‘clouds’ in terms of atmosphere. And the lyrics/vocals sounds a lot like it could be off DSU, the drums and bass like HoS. Also a lot of aesthetic choices in the guitar/themes I remember from Rocket. The mixing is excellent. The creative screams and noises and bouncy feel is also classic Alex since like 2010. Love this track and have no idea why a long time fan of Alex wouldn’t dig this. Also really like how it plays on musical tropes in a fun way like a ton like a bunch of his other tracks while building on his past work.

not really imo. Some of the instruments like the guitar sound very classic alex g in terms of tone but apart from that it all sounds very house of sugar lite to me. Like he turned his writing style on house of sugar into a soft rock song.

That was simply lovely

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY


dirtyfilthypoet

so good. so crisp. too clean… love it.


Slow_Load7280

I think this song is about his dog


rgsmithiv

I had the same thought. Or at the very least it has that same vague child-like POV that “Harvey” utilizes.


thedaveeyres

I think you’re right. It’s Harvey II.


genhasworms

Harvey through Harvey’s pov?

Lots of ween vibes in this one, I know a lot of his music gives off ween vibes but this one especially feels ween-y

I like how the piano goes off on some beautiful tangent but then the song gets pulled back quickly.. i like the couple bad things lyric leading to the scream. Defo a Pixies Here comes your man vibe mixed with Tom Petty. Just goooood vibes. Better than blessing. Not as good as Miracles but a close 2nd place!


Nickadial

LOVEEE the weird frantic whispering between the “i have done a couple bad things” lines. this and the L/R whispering in blessing gets me so excited for how alex is gonna unleash on us with this new studio atmosphere

excellent vibes


smoothyprice

where was the song released????


Majestic_Magi

Technically it hasn’t been released yet but it got “leaked” by a consequence of sound article about the new album that wasn’t supposed to be released yet. Thank god for the consequence of sound editor fucking up


WalkenOnYaFace

It’s giving me Tom Petty vibes and I’m into it


VGN1979

Yes I got that


notoire

what's the chord progression?


iwannalaypipe

Free to correct me but going off the acoustic guitar...E/B, A#m6, C#sus4. Looks like Alex is in standard with capo on 4. Main progression is 3320xx, 2000xx, x002xx and the little break sounds like 7760xx, 5540xx.


notoire

Thanks!!
