I could not agree more: “Free of the thematic and narrative constraints of its predecessor, the new record isn’t necessarily happy but it does have an optimism threaded throughout that’s genuinely uplifting, rather than simply trying to overcome its own weight. ”

I can’t wait to see the Antlers in Sept!!

Regarding Little Scream – “I was most reminded of The Who, despite the lack of any obvious nods. Why, I can’t explain”: nice.

I’d say it could be those big chords in “Red Hunting Jacket”, and the fact that its opening is highly reminiscent of the end section of “A Quick One, While He’s Away”. I had the same impression.
