The Never Destination-Take the long way combo is by far the worst part of the record.

It ain't bad, to be honest, but two average rockers in a row...

I kind of wish this was the second single; I think I like it way more than Superblood Wolfmoon. It's actually a good illustration of the differences between this record and the last two; it's an uptempo punky song, but it has loose moments and ragged edges that definitely would have been sanded out on some of their other songs.

Does anyone know how the sides are going to break down on the three-sided vinyl? Four songs a side? Because on a single lp - and I realize this album is too long for a single lp - this song would kick off Side Two and that makes a lot of sense to me.

I feel this one is the most meh from the album...it does contain some cool things, and is so much better than songs like Lightning Bolt, SW or Supersonic.

This is edging so close to 80s pop-rock. It would fit squarely on the Back to the Future soundtrack. When you’re raising the spirit of Huey Lewis & the News you’ve strayed down the wrong path. Least favorite song after a few listens.

Decent, but the weakest track so far I think, though I could see it rising up above SBWM and Seven O'Clock over time. Need to listen more.

I hope I come around. I’m really digging the album so far.

3rd listen, and still my least favorite track, but even in this I can find a few enjoyable moments.

They really did a good job on this damn thing.

This song should be getting more love.

When I first heard that little Tom Petty bit near the end, I teared up. Ed has so obviously lifted the melody directly from "Listen To Her Heart", and yet it still fits perfectly and doesn't seem out of place. It's a lovely little tribute.

Ed is going to have fun with this one at the live shows.

BoB would have *never* let them finish a song like this; it's like Josh went "guys, when a song is finished, it's finished, no window dressing, just kablam! end"
