I like this album a lot, but I like it partly because of that always-getting-lost feeling. And I like it because I’ve been half-getting-lost, half-realizing-there’s-something-new-here for a few albums now, and this time it’s so much easier to grasp, so much more welcoming, so many (relatively!) big hooks– but still the mystery. I dug a couple of tracks off of their last album, but I didn’t love the whole thing; I respected Sung Tongs a lot, but only listened a lot to a couple of tracks… Feels was really good but also felt like a disappointing backward step; Person Pitch, the Panda Bear solo album, is probably my second favorite thing by them by far (behind the new one) (I didn’t really ever figure out Panda Bear’s previous solo album).

Nice write-up, Jon! Especially liked the intro.
