can someone make a spoiler with the breakdown of what tracks are what?

Sure:
Spoiler: show
What's the Goodside? = The Aging Heart
Eyes on Eyes = Eyes on Eyes
Nostalgia in Lemonade = Ono Lemonade
Saturdays (Again) = Saturdays
Chilly Blue is an instrumental, wasn't on the boots
K.C. Yours = Derriere but it's extremely different, almost unrecognizable aside from the melody
Our Little Chapter wasn't on the boots
Taken Boy = Taken Boy
Remember Mayan = The Mayan
HORS_ = Sew Happy

After hearing the two bonus tracks, I can update this and say:
Spoiler: show
Neither of them were on the boots. So that means Midnight Special, Disc One/Disc Two, Doctor No, Uncle Donut, Red Light Water Show, Enjoy the Change and "Jimmy Neutron" didn't make the album. RIP

Ok finally just listened, I sorta feel what the feeling store said about it being melodically all over the place, there are a few moments that feel a little too busy (mostly eyes on eyes and kc yours). Overall most of the songs are kind of amazing. Good side, nostalgia in lemonade, our little chapter, remember mayan, and hors_ are stunning, especially the ending of good side omg. Also chilly blue reminds me of untitled from spirit, and tbh I think this whole album reminds me the most of spirit compared to most of his work since. Only listened once tho. Feel like there's a lot to unpack still.

but yes it is love at first listen here

Wow. I love that the urgent rhythms are there but more subtle, more the effect and feeling than the actual beats. I really enjoyed the instrumentals. Some gorgeous melodies, love his vocal approach overall, very cohesive record, indeed. I've never enjoyed Taken Boy more than in this context. Mayan and Derriere turned out stunning. Wow.

Tipped In Hugs is a little bit 'straight' for me. That would be my only reservation right now. Dog Says Goodbye is absolutely wonderful, though.

Hey, if the quailty of the thing is reasonable, then a little helping hand (wow that somehow sounds perverse) would be so appreciated.

If the quality is not up to par, then id rather wait a day or two. :)

yeah, i don't think it is, but it kinda sounds like it and the song's about friendship, could even be their friendship


anyway, i think this is pretty great on the first couple listens, and consistently good at that as i was kinda sour on a good number of the eucalyptus tunes. have a soft spot for the melancholic kind of themes of growing older and reflecting on life and mortality that runs through a lot of this—lots of solid lyrics throughout. would be curious to read an interview or feature about where he's at.


what's on the goodside is my prelim fave, one of his top solo songs imo

This is bulls**t, I can't even finish the album cause I got to Eyes On Eyes and have had to repeat it the last 6 times in a row

EDIT: Also I don't get the Tipped in Hugs hate. I get that it might not be a favourite but cause of the comments I went into it expecting to hear the weirdest, most terrible shit ever haha. It's a decent song

Also... between Cows, Buoys and Sleep Cycle I really believe AC could pull off a "country" album.... feels weird to say I want that

tipped in hugs sounds like gnip gnop's cousin that moved to california to get away from the rest of the family

overall though, i think he really nailed it here...singles sound great and renewed for me in context...im so glad i didn't hear the boots beforehand, because these songs are really something special...i was expecting these songs to be flooded with bass a la buoys from how folks described the record, but its much warmer and cozy almost within the songs...

FOR REAL, I'm kind of amazed by how drastically my perception of the singles changed after hearing all the songs together. Easily one of the most cohesive albums in the AC catalogue, which is really saying something.

KC yours is my favorite i think. Really really pulled that one off perfectly. Mayan and Our Little Chapter are definitely also favorites. Overall I don't think it dethrones Eucalyptus as my favorite from Avey but this is a beautiful record that I will be listening to a ton and I'm sure it will only grow on me more. Really happy with how it turned out and it's another hit in this long line of recent AC group and solo bangers.

this is a really sad and emotionally draining album i think, all these songs fuck me up, except for kc with robot bus stop lol but that songs a bop. like i said before it finishing on horse is such a refresher, it was like through those powerful and intimate 2017 shows when you heard those sharp synth stabs that are all over the reworked "when u left me", it's so affirming. this album is fucking nuts. cant wait to listen more

its really good. i wasn't a fan of taken boy when the single came out but the transition from little chapter absolutely completes it

also yeah tipped in hugs rules, the 10inch feels like if you condensed the whole of the album into 2 juicy little songs. all vibes present

Yeah tbh I didn't expect to feel this way upon listening but these songs could both be on the album!!

"What is
