Lemme know when y'all are ready to do a ranking/discussion for the new record. I have thoughts.

I'll probably listen to it again today and I will.

Listening again and... I've got New a Moon far too low on my above ranking.

Man, context is everything. Reading through the liner notes while listening has me reeling. This record is so potent and present. It's complete sense memory. I wonder if this will end up being my favorite Mynabirds record years from now. It's so personal and immediate. Just... wow.

The record has its own distinctive sound, but I believe that it's a lot closer to Generals than the other 2 in spirit.

I think that it might grow to be my second favorite actually.

Part of the chorus from Shouting at the Dark sounds a bit like Beach House.

Wild Hearts might actually be one of my favorites now.

I think I'd rank this album as their second best.

I have a very hard time ranking Mynabirds albums. The first one is my favorite, the rest can be in any order really.
