Also Black Rain

I often find myself falling back on them during fall/winter time. My fav album by them is Under Soil and Dirt but all in all there are very few songs of theirs which I don't like. Their songs are just so catchy and their lyrics really hits me. Still one of my favorite bands out there.

Why do people like Black Rain so much? I feel like there is something I don't get

Billie sounds weird in this but I still like the vibe.

I thought the album would grow more on me but so far it hasn't. I think it's nice car-music but I agree on it beeing too bland as a whole. None of the songs manage to move me in any way and I also forget what they sound like when it's been a couple of days since the last time I listened to them. That being said, I don't really dislike any of the songs except for Black Rain, which I'm actually quite surprised to see that so many seem to like.

Hehe, yeah. GD's core fanbase tends to be a bit more positive in advance of releases though. Now, a good handful seems to be assuming that this is some kind of "fake" record in order to piss off their label and idk, I just find the whole thing kind of strange.

I find it interesting how so many of their fans seem to be hatin this record before it has even been put out. I mean obviously the first single differs quite a bit from their typical sound, but 1) I don't see why that's a bad thing and 2) it doesn't mean that the rest of the songs will be exactly like it.

My expectations for this album haven't been the highest, but I'm positively surprised. Nothing mind-blowing, but interesting enough and I look forward to see what else they come up with. Definitely seeing them on their tour.

I agree with this. I've always felt that it has a bit of a ~cold vibe to it that makes it stand out from both the previous and later stuff in a way. Wish they would've kept that.
