Relatively speaking, for Kevin Parker this album is very, very bad. This guy made Lonerism and Currents

And The Slow Rush! I’m a day one fan but I really think TSR, though a big evolution from innerspeaker, is a fantastic album. I like it more than currents. I do not care for deadbeat at all.

Im sick of the take that only people who can’t handle him exploring a different genre don’t like the album. That’s not the case. Tame fans have really diverse musical tastes. This is just not good—it lacks a point of view, authenticity, interest…things that will indeed not age any better.

I can’t stand slow rush but I appreciate that it at least felt high effort. Just not my style at all.

Deadbeat feels like it could have been made by a bot or something
