This is my first post in a long damn time, but heck, why not.

This album is... meh. It’s ok. I’m really happy for Dave that he’s satisfied with it. I used to hang on every note and every word of every album. Nowadays... I don’t really care as much. I gave the album a few listens - most I’ve listened to DMB since AFTW, and even then I wasn’t listening a lot. This one is ok.

We should all just accept that they’ll never capture the brilliance of the earlier years. The LWS situation changed this band forever, and a few hard knocks later, this is what we’ll get. It’s ok, not a terrible album, good for a few listens. And we will always have the old music to listen who, which has aged remarkably well.

So yeah. I’m happy for Dave and the boys and where they’re at in life and their careers. I’m happy they’re still touring and making music. But I’d im being honest about the album? 5? 6 tops.

Sincerely,
Gnarly old school 90s/early 00’s fan
