Great recap! I’ve only heard two pre-release songs so far, but you’ve got me super excited to hear the whole thing. That was a pretty close listen for having only gone through it once.
Man oh man, What You Get is a helluva song. He's shifting keys all over the place but it all sounds natural, there's 3 different songs worth of melodic hooks and that rhythmic chorus "Bask in the mystery". Big Birdhouse in Your Soul vibes and went straight to my Best of 2026 playlist before I even got through my first listen.
Thats funny, I was just re-watching the Mesopotamians video because somebody mentioned an Econoline van
They’re back! Hahaha

I thinks a very interesting album. I can’t wait to hear your thoughts on it!
