It's just such an enjoyable listen through from start to finish. So easy to blaze right through it and feel emotions along the way.

I think the way the album is compiled elevates the individual tracks that came out as singles that initially didn't make sense on their own.

Like I've come all the way around on Fell in Love and then some, and it flows so well immediately following Dance With Me.

More Than You Know was good to start but it turns out also had growth potential going for it and now it's just a monster track that encapsulates the intensity of Untitled but with maturer lyrics.

And yes Blink Wave is a fire track. Tom's vocals on the chorus with the 80s synthwave is perfection, like I didnt know was possible. They experimented and struck gold with that one. Or at least perfected what Tom was trying to do with some ava.

Travis did overdo the autotune/melodyne, and I kind of wish the doubled vocal tracks had some organic variation instead of being so robotically in time because I think it would sound better, but I can let it go because the songwriting more than makes up for those nit picks.
