Knew a time when we could dream
There’s ancient grandads on the TV screen
Never one to close the blinds
But who can live up to what’s on outside?
Reexamine all the scars
Wrote you some words on a birthday card
Sweep it all under the rug
Try to talk just like the kids
Insufficient Babylon
Isn’t it hard to deal?
You wouldn’t want to waste your last meal
Playing the part you stream
Can it be as bad as it seems?
Here I go again
I fear I’m last year’s man
Been telling myself there’s no one here to save
No one home, Please behave
Are we alright again?
I shift with fingers crossed
A 404 Not Found look upon your face
Isn’t it hard to deal?
You wouldn’t want to waste your last meal
Playing the part you stream
Can it be as bad as it seems?

This is undoubtedly my single favorite album of all time. It feels like such a perfect culmination of all the themes and ideas Fleet Foxes has been working with since 2008. It answers many of the questions found on both Helplessness Blues and Crack-Up, and represents an incredible maturation and growth in Robin Pecknold's perspective. Their other albums are certainly masterpieces, but this, in my opinion, is their magnum opus. I doubt it will be recognized as such in its time. isaiah_stuart

Even though they sing about injustice and being generally fed up with the male species, Camp Cope play like they’re having the time of their lives. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 2, 2018
